Wrong... These playoffs ratings have proved you don't need big teams, underdogs are far more interesting!


No deal to the camera go to the draft like everyone else!

Not sure where you are correcting me. My statement has nothing to do whatever the hell you are saying. By the way, underdogs may be more interesting, but once the Lakers lose, I can assure you the ratings will drop. If you think otherwise, you are fricking retarded.

everyone saying cp3, dwight, deron williams, etc are crazy. The lakers don't have any cap space, and they really don't have any tradeable pieces. Kobe and Bynum are untradeable, imo. Pau is the only person of value they could trade, but what are they looking for in return? a better PF? not gonna happen. Lakers are stuck, and it looks like the end has come for Phil, Kobe, and the present day Lakers.

I'm not sure about the other pieces, but if the Magic feel Howard won't come back, Bynum would be a solid addition, and I'm sure for LAL, Bynum is tradeable for Howard.

The magic are literally the only team I could see Bynum getting traded to, but Bynum and who? Their contracts don't match-up, the Lakers don't have anyone else to offer, and I can't see Otis trading Dwight without Gil/Hedo in a package deal. Maybe Bynum+Pau+Odom+Brown for Hedo, Dwight, and Arenas

Bynum is gonna be good next year I think. I say that dfish needs to go for a top of the line young point guard. Pau needs to get some or something, get his mojo back.

Bynum is probably the 2nd best center in the league, (so besides the Magic) that's why I don't think he's tradeable to anywhere else. They'd only be downgrading at the Center position. That's why I said Bynum and Kobe are untradeable. Maybe they could put together some type of package deal, but with their zero wiggle room under the salary cap, they really have few options.

something is up with Gasol. Rumor about his fiance leaving him a month ago and another player's wife being an instigator.

Hire Brian Shaw after Phil retires. Then, play next season, hopefully with Fisher coming off the bench. Keep the team intact. A lot of people are overreacting about this series. The Lakers are a better looking team on paper, but the Mavericks are playing harder and doing more with the opportunities they have. The Lakers have given away two games, and while they probably will not win four games, a made three here or there could've made this a completely different series. The shots aren't always going to fall, and you don't always win.

so you want Steve Blake to start?
How many years are left on Kobe's contract?

I'd prefer Brown, but he does force some bad shots when he gets in a rhythm. He brings a lot of energy and hustle and is the second best scoring threat from the guard position. Steve Blake is good for some solid minutes, but he just isn't effective enough on offense.

Through 2014 I believe.

Practice passing the ball to Bynum more.

They should have never gotten rid of Vujacic. They would be up 3-0 with him.

Quit picking on all Euro softies, at least Vuj collects a nice check in the obscurity of losing Jersey, and gets to be Mr.Sharapova. Sweet gig!

The reign is far from over. When's the last time the Lakers have even looked beatable in an elimination game?

If I'm a Lakers fan I pray for some sort of Bynum for Dwight Howard trade

Howard is a legit MVP candidate and Bynum has never been able to stay on the floor
