Enjoy the ride…that’s funny. You sound like a Maverick or Hawk fan or some team whose fans should “just be happy to be there.” Lakers are about winning Championships…tell Magic and Jabber…hey don’t sweat it guys…just enjoy the ride. Certain franchises are know for and are all about winning Championships…Steelers…Yankees…Cowboys…Patriots…Celtics and of course the Lakers. You enjoy the ride…there’s still some of last year’s Championship series T shirts you can get for cheap. Maybe you can patent the phrase on them…”we may have lost but I enjoyed the ride. “

154. So your argument is the that Gasol and LO are not good enough to win a title until they are good enough to prove you wrong by winning a title?

I don’t think I can say this enough: People should enjoy the ride and not just worry about reaching the destination.

Yeah Kurt…I watched the last two games!! We proved last year we could go deep into the playoffs without him…I said WIN the championship…not just get there…and yeah, I know we have Riza healthy this year also but Gasol & LO have yet to prove they can get it done on the biggest of stages…

Bynum provides the presence in the middle that will allow both of them to relax more on offense and be more confident defensively…

I’m all about the 3-Peat but not losing our third championship in a row.

I like that they are trying to simplify rotation and resign Ariza, however at the SF glut Vladmir is a lot more valuable the Walton, honestly he may be the best 3 point shooter on the team, at least at uncontested threes. To behonest I dont think it matters, I would of preferred trying to find an expiring contract and save a lot more money though.

vlad was one guy who scared me on the floor, bad passes and ill-advised shots. was virtually a non factor in the second half of games, even when he was a starter. secondly, i think kobe has the same effect on players as mj had (paxson, bj, kerr, etc). And our staff is great!

I say good riddance…Rad was too inconsistent and did not play with heart or intensity. Clearly, if he wanted to be a Laker, he had his fair chance to show it. I don’t think this trade went through without Kobe’s OK…so if Kobe’s happy then everyone is happy. I think the trade was a wash with the salary cap dump being the “key.”

This trade is all about the future but for now the present is at hand…we need Bynum back to win the Championship this year. Does anyone have some info about whether he’ll actually return this year???

I am very sad about all this . I love Vladi. I think he was a good player who got a really bad deal by being taken off the starting lineup. Having his minutes cut so bad that he didn’t even have a chance to show his skills. I will miss him, loved his 3 point “rainbow” shots and as a woman I will miss his big sad beautiful dark Serbian eyes and sexy lips!!
