 I never come in here but the amount of nonsense and speculation I've read in the past couple of pages is astonishing!! I thought we were bad.
You are. We're just worst right now because we're at a more desperate hour. You guys are on the up and up, with your recent pickups being Amare and Melo. We're going downhill, from back-2-back titles to out in the 2nd rd. and rumors of internal struggles.

I partially agree with this. I mean, the Lakers aren't in that bad of shape. I think the Lakers had more personal problems than they did with talent. The sad thing is, this isn't the first time this has happened to the Lakers or to Kobe. As much as how amazing of a player he is, dude just can't seem to stay drama-free from teammates. Especially major key teammates. Dude just seems to always butt heads with the main big man (Shaq and Pau).

I would honestly keep Pau, Bynum and Lamar Odom. Ron Artest is the one key figure you guys should be looking to trade. He became heavily complacent within the year and is just going to decline and get bored next season. If Phil was still around, then maybe I would keep him because I don't see any other coach being able to challenge him mentally and physically as a basketball.

You guys just got rid of Shannon Brown (VERY OVERRATED) and are in the hunt for Dwight Howard by 2012. He actually wants to go to L.A whether it's through trade or free-agency. I think other teams have bigger concerns than you guys (maybe Mike Brown can be a concern

BleacherReport is garbage.

But I did read Larry +!@* say Shannon was thinking about opting out of his contract.

Edit:
Ron Artest legally changed his name to "World Peace".

You guys are delusional!!!! You think the gift you received in 07 means that you steal every trade coming your way? What?

if any team were to do any farfetched trade it'll be us.

here's a brief history for oblivious individuals like yourself.

wilt was traded from philly for darrall imhoff, jerry chambers, archie clark. oh btw, wilt was coming off an MVP season.


kareem was traded to LA for walt wesley, elmore smith, brian winters, dave meyers and junior bridgeman.

of course, we are all aware of the pau gasol trade. 


i suggest you should hold in your

 for your knicks who haven't won a playoff game since 2001.


have a nice day.

[h1]Ron Artest: I'm Changing My Name ... RADICALLY[/h1]

Say goodbye to Ron Artest and HELLOOOO to Metta World Peace ... Mr. Metta World Peace to you.

0623-ron-artest-world-ex.jpg


Yes, Ron is going the way of Cassius Clay, Lew Alcindor and Chad Johnson.  Ron's filed a petition in L.A. County Superior Court to change his name to -- World Peace.

FYI, metta means loving, kindness, happiness and all that jazz.

We're told Ron wants to put the new last name -- Peace -- on the back of his L.A. Lakers' jersey.

These name changes are typically granted by a judge unless it would result in confusion or fraud. 

Hey, give Peace a chance.

That's it, Ron has to go. Dude is becoming too much of distraction. Without Phil to handle him this will lead to internal strife with Kobe.
