Lakers aren't getting anyone

[longtime lurker]

What about LO,Gasol,Bynum,Ariza,Kobe,Shaq,bringing Fisher & Phil back etc.......

If you're bring up moves from over 5 and 15 years ago then you're kinda proving my point.

I'm thinking about and I gotta admit, its 100% true.

People HATED mitch and it was just ONE move and suddenly people loved him as a GM, the pau move. But he hasn't done squat since either. And now he plays from the sidelines just making minor tweaks, waiting for another lopsided trade to hit another giant homerun. I dunno. I think I see truth in that.

Kupchak is an overrated GM.

You're a dipshit bandwagon jumper who has no thought of your own.

Then every GM in the league is bad because they don't put a championship team out there every year.

Mitch is smart & he doesnt make panic moves like some GM's (signing horrible contracts, trading away good players, bad draft picks,etc)

And he consistently gets the Lakers good FA's, makes SMART trades, and has scouted some gems that weren't on anyones radar (Hill,Ariza,Shannon Brown,etc)....And those are things that a good GM does. If Stern didn't screw us over then this wouldn't even be a question.

I think its clear at this point. Jim loves bynum too much, mitch loves pau too much. FA's can't play here because we don't have money.

Alright. Lakers next year, 6th seed? 7th? Taking predictions. I hope we get out of the 1st round.

LOL They have the money, they just can't go over the salary cap limit.

if u arent allowed to spend money its the same as not having it.. thats why i wrote it that way

Something MUST be done and done quickly cuz this team as is, can't compete for a title.

[Da Hammer]

Sad to see that Kobe's final years will be on a non-contending team

Care to explain why you said that?
