if they continue to have injuries like they are, they will. Im a Lakers fan too. I dont think there is another team in the league that has more injuries then they do.

all the posters that think you could have kept Shaq and rebuilt the team are idiots...Doc let Mitch know he wanted to rebuild around Kobe, Shaq needled Doc about getting the extention every day during camp in Hawaii before the last season he played for the Lakers...he also wanted a huge contract, was carrying a lot of weight , and was not finishing seasons healthy (as evidenced by his not playing whole seasons the last two also) would you have paid a huge contract to keep Shaq, made Kobe unhappy, and had no money left over to get players to rebuild? the uneducated fan would say yes...what the uneducated fan doesnt know is that Shaq could have come back but for less than he wanted and without the 'franchise' tag, of course everyone knows the situation with him and kobe, and coach was tired of that whole deal also...it could have continued had they beat Detroit, but probably better it worked out this way...the Mavs wanted to move Nash, Lakers wanted to move Shaq and still get something...the Heat came up with a package and Shaq got to go to Miami, got the nice contract, and play with a contender...Odom was the only part that fit good enough to stay...if they hadnt all moved then, the Lakers would be a few years behind in the rebuilding process, probably contended but not won championships (they were still weak at the 1 ,3 , and 4 spots and would have had no money for a big time player to fit in) and Shaq would have stayed big and hurt late in the seasons...Ive heard it from Dr Buss's mouth that he loved when they run, like the old 'showtime' teams...and heard it from people in the organization that he likes kobe...and for those that werent around, and have only watched bball for the last 20 years or less, Doc has already made the Lakers over twice into dominant teams since he bought the organization...who else can say that? so they have to rebuild again...at least this organization knows what thats about...has a team that you root for been dominant in two different recent decades, or a history of being dominant in three? I didnt think so...

Yes, and very few colleges are looking at drafting some of the Lakers players :).

the two most important positions in basketball are point guard and center. The lakers have neither.

yes, maybe they will get smart and fire the whole front office that decided to keep Kobe and trade Shaq.

To be honest, as bad as they are, I don't think the military can use them. Maybe as decoys!
