My personal opinion: this team will be “the one” you don’t want to face in the playoffs. For a lot of reasons. First of all because it’s a defensive-minded team, and teams built like that are extremely hard to beat in the playoffs. Plus they have Mihm, Brown, Odom and hopefully Turiaf who can defend against Garnett, Dirk, Duncan, Amare, etc.. And, other than that, they are a team who surprisingly plays better away than at home. And, finally, obviously, they have Kobe, who can win games litterally alone. Not to mention Phil still gotta have a team who sucked in the playoffs, and for sure doesn’t want those Lakers to be the first one. You have all to loose against them.But they are still not ready for the “big run”, imo. They miss something. First of all they miss a 6th man who can attack the basket and score 15 points per night constantly. I see a lot of potential in Wafer, but he’s not ready yet. We need somebody to sign for this season and maybe the next one. Somebody like Spree.. wassup with him? If we can add a player like him without trading our prospects we’re def ready for the big run. If not, i hope we will do it for the next season: a lot of players should accept a paycut to play with Kobe (the MVP) and for Phil, being the 2nd offensive weapon of the Lakers. I mean the Lakers!!! I’m pretty optimistic. I’m loving Jerry trading Shaq lately. I’m loving Jerry signing Phil. I’m loving Phil. I’m loving the draft picks. I’m really optimistic now, we’re one step away from being fully loaded for real. And Shaq will not win another ring!

Yea, basically a 6th man of the year caliber player...That's why I was talking about how the Lakers coulda traded for Ricky Davis...
Last I heard of Sprewell, he was supposed to be signing with the Clippers (http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?topic=100237.0)...I wouldn't mind Spree with the Lakers, I just don't think he would be the key to our success...I think we have what it takes, we just need to know how to utilize it...PeACe
I WENT TO STAPLES CENTER WEN I WAS WALKING MY GOLD RAG FALL OF MY POCKET AND THE GROUND WAS WET TO AND DIRTY MY RAG GOT DIRTY A LIL BIT PULL IT IT BACK AND MAKE SURE IT WOULD NOT DROP AGAIN ROCKING MY RAG AGAIN HOMIE 8

I hope the rest of this road trip doesn't go as bad as that game @ Detrot did.
