now that our Lakers team representing Southern California is gone, maybe it's time to root for one from the north.

Nowitzki once again won't show up for the playoffs. Even if he wins the MVP, I'm sure he won't be too thrilled with this one.

Something to look forward to for the Laker fans..

Quote:

In a quiet moment after most of the press crowd dispersed, Kobe acknowledged that he's heard the rumblings out of Indianapolis about another, younger O'Neal possibly working his way to the Lakers.

The story, as covered in the season's final Weekend Dime , holds that Jermaine O'Neal -- according to at least one Pacers teammate we spoke with -- is hoping to end up in Hollywood alongside his longtime pal from the 1996 draft if his time in Indianapolis has indeed passed.

"There's not a lot I can say about it right now," Bryant said. "But if it gets to the point that Jermaine wants to be here instead of Indy, we'd love to have him. We'd be crazy not to."

lakers should try to get Jerry West back, but the problem is that he is close friends with mitch kupchak.

no way you can get rashard lewis. no money and he will get around 13-14m a year.

not sure if Jermaine is an upgrade. Injury prone and a whiner.

IMO, any restructuring that they do during the off season isn't going to be enough. Kobe has trained the team to be a one man circus and anybody on the team who isn't named Kobe is brain-washed with a let's-pass-to-kobe-first mentality. Sad.
