    We have had are fun, and every team goes through the cycle.

      Re: lakers fans enjoy this year

      I seem to recall a similar situation with the Bulls in 1997 as well...

      I don't completely buy the whole Laker blowing up fiasco. I'm sure a lot of it is the media putting under the microscope relatively minor incidences that don't mean a whole lot. Malone and Payton did sign 2 year contracts, and did come to LA with the sole intention of winning a championship. I don't see them both abandoning their plans just because of 1 failed year, when they still have a legitimate shot at the title. Right now, I'd bet my money on the Lakers coming back next season with their roster largely in tact. Next year the team will have more experience under its belts, and for some reason the Lakers have a knack for developing their talented young players into solid role players.

                  besides payton and malone won't retire before at least another 1 more year minumium, and if kobe leaves and payton and malone they will have about $20 million in cap space to use. If shaq is old, his contract ends soon, and he is still pretty good even if he isn't his dominant self, so i don't really see a problem.
                  Just wait till Arsenal moves into Emirates Stadium.

                        Hey, guys, I haven't been here in quite a while. Does timskills still post here? B/C the Spurs will be playing for the championship.

                              I know TM was banned last summer, but I also recall him donating to the site not too long ago. So I'm not sure.
