    Yeah, again I'm a Laker fan but I never pick the Lakers cuz I'm PG dominant I'd pick Wizards, Kings, Memphis over the years, and this last year was Detroit. I was going to finally take my Lakers this year in 2K13, but I doubt anyone lets me use them.

      Eh if true fans were the only ones using Lakers that'd be sweet. It's all the thousands of bandwagoners that messes it up.

        Heat dont have to worry cause the Lakers arent getting by OKC.

        Nash is a liability on D and Westbrook will just eat him up.

        The other Lakers are all injury prone, including Howard.
        One or two injuries and the Lakers are done and out.

        3. PG and C are the Heat's weaknesses and those happen to be the spots Lakers powered up.

          ONeal/Bryant/Malone/Payton

            Injuries can happen to any team.

            Right now on paper the Lakers have the best starting 5 in the league if this trade goes thru.

              Who said the Lakers were better than the Thunder? It's still early days but I'll give the Thunder the edge for now.
              Sefolosha can guard Kobe and Perkins & Ibaka can guard Pau & Dwight. I can't really the same for Nash against Westbrook though. Then you got the best scorer in the league & the reigning sixth man.

              Yes Bosh has the size to guard DH (not saying he will stop him completely), but offensively, Bosh can stretch the floor and take DH out of the paint, thus opening the lane for LeBron & Wade to penetrate.

              C: yes
              PG: no. Chalmers is a solid contributor for the Heat and will have no problems matching up with Nash.

              Without a doubt the Lakers probably have the best starting five on paper but have limited depth. It's a long season and there are too many factors to account for at this point. Either way, it will be a very good match-up.

                The final offer Brooklyn put on the table for Orlando would have been Lopez, Kris Humphries at one-year, $9.6 million, MarShon Brooks and four unprotected first round picks for Howard, Jason Richardson, Chris Duhon and Earl Clark.
                LOL the laker offer is no where near this offer. Ridiculous

Thanks for reintroducing me to the reality that is almost all of the Lakers fanbase: rude, arrogant, constant-****-talking douchebags.
                    I appreciate the sentiments.

                    That post of his you quoted was beyond over the top obnoxious. I literally logged off last night after that post. I knew it wouldn't end well.

                    Either way onward with the days discussions...

                    I mentioned this in the NBA off topic thread, I was watching Mike & Mike this morning and Van Pelt is subbing in for Golic. He broke out his Steven A impression and I was cracking up. He has his speech cadence down perfectly.

                    Pretty interesting view on the trade (I'll spoiler it so as not to overflow this thread with the trade talk that is probably disgusting to many by now).

                      The questions for this Lakers team to me are:

                      Can Kobe thrive in an offense where he's not ball-dominant?
                      Can Kobe and Nash continue to hold up after all of the minutes/games they've logged?
                      Will Nash (especially) be able to hold up without PHO training staff?
                      What is going on with D12's back?
                      Will they be able to build enough chemistry to win it all this year?
                      How much will Artest regress this year and how will it affect his defensive ability?
                      Are they going to play their starting 5 for 40+ minutes per game?
                      What production are they going to get out of their second unit of Blake, Ebanks, Jamison, McRoberts and Hill?
                      How in the world are the Lakers able to reload whenever they need to?
                      Can Mike Brown coach this team?

                      They look ridiculous on paper and easily have a chance to be one of the best teams (if not the favorite) to win it all this year. However, the questions I listed are real.

                      All questions aside, barring injuries, this is potentially the most top-heavy I've seen in the league in a while with the talent that Miami, LA and OKC possess.
                      Acts 2:38. Let the truth be told.
                      John 4:23. He is seeking a seeker.
                      John 3:20. Say no to normal.

                          This team is on a different level, and that team still made it to finals.....

                          LA clearly goes into season as the bet, it doesn't necessarily mean they will win it all, but no one can seriously tell me they are not better than every other team in the league right now.

                          I read some people say you are going from Bynum to Howard, how does that make you so much better.....Bynum's D pales in comparison to Howard, and although Drew has a better post game, Howard's athleticism is unstoppable; and of course one of the best passers in NBA history will be lookong for him.

                          Barring injuries, this is a 65+ win team.

                            2011 Offseason: A lot of guys root for the Heat because they were falling sorry for Lebron
                            2012 Offseason: A lot of guys root for OKC???? Or at the least, roots against LA?
                            Fixed that for you. I root for the basketball gods to allow LA and Miami to be swallowed up in the Earth every year.

                            And despite all that they made it to the Finals and lost in large part because Kobe and Shaq were at the height of their hate for each other at the time.

                            I swear the Lakers are like Bieber or one of the Jonas brothers or some **** and the rest of the league are a bunch of preteen/teenage girls. So whenever a team calls the other for a trade, no problem. However the phone rings and it's the Lakers on the end and teams go ape ****. It's like they're so star struck like....'the Lakers are actually talking to us?!?!' Then they proceed to get raped.

                              So Professa, still defending Orlando management...

                              This is ridiculousness to the max...

                              Lets look at what Denver got for Carmelo:

                              Wilson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, the Knicks 2014 first-round draft pick, the Warriors' 2012 second-round pick, the Warriors' 2013 second-round pick and $3 million in cash.
                              Yes Orlando gets 3 picks but all from Playoff teams! Each team in that deal makes it out better than Orlando and they have the best piece. Obviously you never get full value but come on.

                                If I'm the Bulls, as soon as I'm able to do it, I'm calling up Orlando about Afflalo for some of these expirings we'll have before the trade deadline.

                                EDIT:

                                Of course, we aren't the Lakers though, so as soon as we do call, the Magic will certainly have no need for expiring deals and not give a **** about further cap flexibility.
