..but yo.. the Lakers have been down before, I remember after Shaq left everyone thought the Lakers were fucked, and in the Nick Van Exel days they weren't that solid. But they aquired Shaq and that changed everything... then after Shaq left they made moves to get Gasol and that changed everything...The Kobe deal might have them fucked for a couple years though. But it won't be long before they land a big free agent signing or two and get back in business.
Ask Knicks fans how long it takes to be contenders again. The Lakers had some of the best basketball minds in the world for decades. Jerry, probably the greatest NBA owner, somehow Jerry West was an even better GM than player. Jim isn't on his father's level and Kupchak isn't West. Plus I don't see Phil walking through that door.

They are both huge markets that the media always pumps up as destinations for free agents. What does LA offer that New York doesn't have? They don't have Jerry Buss or West anymore. Kobe is done, Phil is in New York. They can grasp at drafting a future superstar by tanking if they have any picks.
You are so far into the forest you can't see the trees. You will realize how much in common you have with Knicks fans in year 4 of your rebuild. Enjoy.
