time to embrace the tank.

Dwight Howard and Josh Smith on the same team? Please tell me it's true. That would be the most hilarious group of absolute morons ever assembled.
No coach in the universe could contain the amount of cancer each one brings to the locker room.
One would be bad enough, but the two of them!? Get your popcorn out folks.

Is this what happens when something goes wrong? Is this the attitude we display? As someone who used to be a fan of a failing franchise, I can give you some advice on how to cope.

He couldn't handle the pressure like the Laker greats.
more likely didnt want to stick around for Kobe's last years and the rebuild

Can a player get amnestied during the season or must it be done in the offseason?
the west is craaaaaaazy next season
rockets - obviously improved, and they might improve more before the summer ends.
warriors - can only get better
memphis - bringing back the same team or better or worse
clippers - got a coach and some shooters
spurs barely lost anyone, but got older/fatigued from the long playoff run
thunder are still the thunder
i could see any of those teams winning the title

We literally can't afford to improve in many ways and Kobe is gone for a few months
Nash/Blake
Meeks
Metta
Pau/Kelly
Sacre
All coached by Mike D
That's if we don't amnesty MWP or trade MWP Nash and/or Pau.
Philly could easily be better than LA LOL
They don't play in the East, and the East always have half the conference tanking anyway.
The top 6 West teams still look mighty with a few up and coming teams trying to win. It's easy to tank.
Also, what short term move? They are still way, way over the cap.
Dallas seems like it would be a distant 3rd.
Of course I haven't actually spent much time in the main city since I live way out in the burbs.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
Where the fuck did I go? lol Dm isn't a Rockets fan, he's a Tmac fan.
Nets, bulls, heat, Indy isn't bad either. Next season will be great.

Knicks fans are going to be sore that you didn't include them. But I see what you did.

If the lakers amnesty MWP, and they will, they will be just slightly over the luxury tax if they only sign vet minimums.
If they can make one trade they can get under it and actually get a MLE exception (if they want to offer a 1 year deal to someone for it).

the ECF is lame... same star players as 2012 just different teams.
and the WCF... well... it wouldn't be bad... just pissed howard bolted.
...
you know... it might not be a bad thing howard bolted... if we can get a good stretch 4 like millsap or j smoove... a core like that would be enough for a good playoff run. I doubt lakers will stink... they just need a bench.
my concern is the free agency next year. without howard the front court is questionable... regardless of who we pick up.
Join Us, Moris. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the Bestern Conference.
Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

Clowns don't know how to hold a fucking camera horizontal.
the bulls ain't shit
yeaaa except for the fact that pierce and kg aren't the stars of the nets, they're part of the supporting cast. the nets should be the most interesting team to watch this year, if they gel and stay healthy they will be the heat's kryptonite.

then why do i see people listing lineups in which sacre starts at center
even with dead kobe sitting out for who knows how long, it'll be nash, trashcan, mwp, pau and jordan hill
they'll be a slightly worse version of the 2012 suns
Love is more of a Bulls style player. Underwhelming.
2015. Lakers will get Rudy Gay instead.
2015?! Fuck, I thought it was 2014!
What are the Lakers going to do now?
LOL! True
Except for Boozer.
Nash wants a ring. They'll probably trade him to a team where he can win.
Black Mamba

cuz they're creating a tank lineup!
I could see lakers trading Hill to get under the LT as well.

They'll finally get Deng next year.
If he wants a ring he'll have to do it on a team where he starts on the bench
Spurs definitely won't be back
I'm waiting on a bet with someone who hasn't been broken by their own loyalties yet though.
