I'd rather be under the cap and shit than loaded with bullshit players like Kwame, Radman and Cook for years.

Here are the major points from the interview -*The only contact he has had with Kobe this summer was after he re-signed with the Lakers in Mid-July.*Kobe told Luke that regardless of what happens, if he comes back to the Lakers, he will go full force and give 100% as usual.*Luke said that he didn't believe that a big trade would be coming, but that its possible 1 or 2 more smaller trades could come.*Luke talked about Chris Mihm coming back and that he looks really good. He said that before Mihm got injured he was having one of his best seasons ever and the Lakers really missed him last year. He said that having Mihm back could make a big difference.*Luke stated that he wanted to become more of a leader next year and that he is completely healthy.*Finally, and a bit OT, they talked about Luke's end of the summer bash with Richard Jefferson, stating that it was known as one of the top 3 best parties in So Cal (along with the Playboy mansion's mid-summer's nights dream and the annual maxim bash).

Our front office took another summer off.What could we have done that we didn't...?Dude Kobe flipped out and demanded to be traded; Jerry Buss met with him then took a fuckin vacation and left the dumbest person in the world (next to you) in charge of our whole organization. They didn't try to go after Pau Gasol at all, they should've brought in a defensive swingman (Patterson, Posey, Pietrus were all available), they didn't do a good job drafting (lol @ 3 steals), and the list goes on. If they would've made proper moves then Kobe's decision wouldn't be such a mystery right now.
