Blackface said:The Lakers have had two big time FA in their prime signing since the late 1970's. Acting like LA is a place young, superstar, in their prime players flock do, is ridicules.
The history of the Lakers is very predictable. A decade where they are fantastic, and win championships, followed by a slow decade of rebuilding, followed by a strong decade of championships.
They are at the end of a strong decade, and about to enter one of rebuilding. Dwight does not want to be part of a rebuilding team with no prospects.
The Lakers went through this rebuilding phase in the 90's. They got Shaq, and acquired Kobe. They were one of the YOUNGEST teams in all of basketball after 1996. It took talented young players, a developing Kobe and Phil Jackson to make them what they are right now.
They were in a unique position at that time, that they are NOT IN NOW. There are a number of NBA teams with much better prospects. With better coach's (Phill is gone), and a brighter future. It makes no sense for Dwight to sign with the Lakers.
He drafted Bynum and stuck with him even though everybody and their mother (Except Jim Buss) wanted him to trade Bynum. Is he Jerry West? No, who is? But the fact remains that under his watch the Lakers have gone to 3 straight finals and won 2 chips.

Don't need him when Jesus Rubio is looking for a school for his sister.The Stealth Fox said:Is he a model citizen and a great young man? Sign me up.
I heard that Derrick Rose fella is a nice young man too. Maybe the Timberwolves can get him.

McHale just made fun of Dirk, too.Sho_Nuff82 said:Lol at the Blazers announcers downplaying that.

Kirstie Alley is on the show, I know you fucking watch.

charsace said:What has mitch actually done? For the shaq trade he took the best package available. He only got Gasol because of West. The current Lakers front office hasn't done anything. West had playoff teams before shaq even though the team was rebuilding. Lakers fans should be begging for West to return.
the one day he has a good game that sucksreilo said:Wtf Gerald to the lockerroom holding his back, ugh.
dream said:Yall make your jokes and shit but I saw Kirstie Alley rubbing up on Bones Jones and she looked nice.
Ninja Scooter said:West wasn't in Memphis when the Gasol trade went down. Mitch has been pretty hit and miss, but his hits have been really good. Signing Kwame to only a 2 year deal (instead of say, full MLE or something) was smart because when it became apparent that he sucked, he became a nice expiring contract (hello Gasol). Drafting Bynum (credit goes to Jim Buss too) when nobody else had him on the radar. Stealing Ariza, trading for Shannon Brown while unloading Vlad's horrible contract.
People still think he's the one that put the whole trade together and I believe it. The same way he scared teams away from kobe and prepared to sign shaq. He's a Laker for life and does everything he can to make sure they're good.Ninja Scooter said:West wasn't in Memphis when the Gasol trade went down.

Your team struggled against a bad team, and Rose looked like shit doing it, you really want to get into this?AShep said:Yeah because it's not like those guys haven't continuously failed playing alongside all-stars before...
Let's ask Amare/Marion, Boozer, and David West (lol you got me) what it was like flunking out over and over again playing alongside your prototype PGs. Shit, why not get Karl Malone and Dirk on the phone too?

Kobe's the one who told everyone that Kobe wouldn't play for them.charsace said:People still think he's the one that put the whole trade together and I believe it.

And don't forget the biggest move of them all: keeping Kobe instead of Shaq, which everyone killed them for at the time but has turned out to be the absolute right move by Buss and Mitch. Lol at saying this front office hasn't done anything since West. What a show of basketball ignorance to say that coming off back to back titles.Black Mamba said:He also managed not to give full maxes to Bynum (who demanded one originally) or overpay Ariza (who has been mediocre since). And LO signed for under market value, too, after playing hardball (credit to Jerry here, though).
Jumped on Barnes too, who has helped, when he became available.

People also believe 9/11 was an inside job and Obama is Muslim. People are stupid. West was not employed by the Memphis Grizzlies or the Lakers. Why would he give a shit?charsace said:People still think he's the one that put the whole trade together and I believe it. The same way he scared teams away from kobe and prepared to sign shaq.
