Clippers goal- Get to the playoffsTwolves goal- win it allSpurs goal- win it allPitsons goal- RepeatHeat goal- Eastern Conference FinalsLakers goal- Start rebuilding, see what kind of damage they can do in the playoffs and IMPROVE to be Next years contenders. Kobe has the talent...its barely his first year to prove what hes made of. I GOTTA SEE TO BELIEVE. PLus Jordan had more help on his team than what kobe has to work with right now. Where are the true 3 pt. shooters? The Rebounders? Top Notch defender? NIK...ur starting to sound like Jack Haley.
If you're a Clipper fan, you should be pulling for them to make the playoffs...That's the Clippers goal...Lakers goal isn't to make the playoffs, it's to win a championship, and to be a fan, you must have faith...Shaq was slowing down the Lakers, and I think the Lakers improved this year...Kobe wont have a selfish fatso begging for the bell, and complaining that he doesn't get it enough after every game...This is Kobe's Jordan year...PeACe
what has kobe said after shaq was traded away? "its going to be a challenge" "it will be fun" "uphilll battle"Signs of a contender huh?what has Jerry and jeanie buss said? "rebuilding", "we have to move on"WOW ur right nik...they are saying they are going to win it next year

I mean, come on...You don't see Mich Kupchak, Jerry Buss, and Rudy Tomjanavich running around saying "I think Minnesota will win the championship"...That would just be a slap in the face to the fans...If you're a fan, you root for your team and have faith for your team...When you claim your a fan, and then say "I doubt they have a chance this year," that makes me question your credebility as a fan...With a starting lining that includes the best player in the game (Kobe Bryant), a proven star forward (Lamar Odom), an up and coming star (Caron Butler), a hall of a fame player (Gary Payton), and one of the few good centers in the game (Vlade Divac)...How can you even have the guts to say the Lakers aren't in the run?...That's not a fan, buddy...PeACenaw man. Fans dont have to be blind tho. Yeah, u should support your team always. And if youre a real fan u always pull for em. But that doesnt mean you should be unrealistic about shit. There are plenty of Clipper fans in LA...do u think that in order to be a REAL Clipper fan, u should believe that they are winning the title this next year? lol right.

of course they are not picking other teams. but have you heard anybody say "anything short of a championship will be a dissapointment to this upcoming Laker team.look at the history of the great centers, wait look at the history of the Lakers. Each dynasty has had a legendary center...and when they didnt have a legendary center but a Hall of Fame team they just came oh so close to win it all almost every damn year with West and Baylor. Wilt helped them to get over that hump. The Lakers dont win rings....we get dynasties bro. And a dynasty is not build right away after another one is gone. It takes time. So far it is looking okay. Within in these next 3 years they are going to have to start getting some solid role players to play with kobe.
