the laker's run has ended. after their 3 peat they were supposed t owin some more championships. now that they lost to detroit this year, and to san antonio last year, they broke apart. phil is gone so they need a good coach. kob is leavin so they need a pg. shaq wants out but they will prolly get someone good 4 him. malone is injured so he is gonna stink. and payton is the only good player they got left .this all just goes to show u that they prolly r gonna be like 8th in nexty ear's playoff spot.

they might not be that bad cuz GP is coming back. kobe might stay because shaq is going. so in the end it might not be a bad team.

kobe said he wants his own team and he hates shaq. with shaq gone its going to be his team and he wont deal with shaq.

I hate the Lakers, but I won't say that they will suck next season. I think they're a fourth place team in the Western Conference at worst. Thats not bad for a team that will be revamped. Malone is a huge questionmark for the Lakers too. Next season will greatly depend on who the Lakers get for Shaq, and they are asking teams for three of their good players for the Big Guy.

Lakers could very well not make the playoffs next year depending if Malone/Slava leave our team.

The thing you fail to realize is that we're doing something called "re-building." By trading Shaq, we sped up that process.

Give the Lakers a 3 years and we'll be back in the running for a title.

A team with Kobe, Odom, GP, Butler, Grant, and Vlade isn't going to stink. The Lakers aren't over. I don't think we will be winning any titles this season or maybe even next season, but with Rudy T, you never know. Look at what he did with a 7th placed Rockets team.

I disagree. I think they will be third. If youl look at the West, the only teams better are the Wolves and Spurs. Who else do you think is better?

I think Malone's decision really will affect the Lakers chances as to how far they go.

In no way do I see us seriously contending for a title next year, but hey-- we're re-building. It takes time.

what about houston, kings and you never know the nuggets. plus the lakers are a brand new team. new coach new players new everything and remember the knicks last season they were new and look what happen.

-Houston has no depth and no PG.
-Kings are old and lost the most important piece of their team to the Lakers and they aren't planning on signing anyone new.
-Nuggets only have added K-Mart, who won't do as well in the West, but they are losing a lot of their depth. Barry, Lenard, Anderson, and Rodney White are all going or have gotten deals with other teams.

-housten as yao and t mac and we all know what happens when a good center and a really good SG team up.

-how was he the most important piece, they got peja, bibby, webber, miller, bobby jackson, Greg Ostertag and Doug Christie. thats a good team

-k-mart wont do bad in the west and the nuggets have players that were injured and will better this year.

The big man and SG combo isn't effective any more, notice the Lakers haven't won in two years. Teams with depth win now and the Rockets have none.

Vlade made the team run, he was the leader, captain, pick setter, got everyone the ball when they needed it. Also, they are losing 1/2 their team to free agency. Peeler left today. Peja chokes in the playoffs. Webber chokes 24/7, is aging, and has injuries always. Ostertag is overrated and not exactly young. Christie is old. And we will see how much Bibby will miss getting open shots, which 90% of his points came from, they were set up by picks set by Vlade.

Injured players on the Nuggets? Like who? And who is going to play SG for them, Lenard and Barry are going to not be there, they have a thinner roster than they had last year.

A lot...of nothing. T-Mac won't pass Yao the ball and won't play defense, they were better off with Francis and Mobley.

we dont know how they will play together yet. but if the do pass the ball to each other and if they do play like a team. WATCH OUT!
