Mike D'Antoni is an overrated coach. Look how much better the Knicks got after he left, and they had the shooters. Kobe was by far the lakers best shooter. How does losing what you need most in D'Antoni's system make them better. Of course you have an easy blackout on this because you say IF Nash is healthy. When is that last time Nash was healthy?
I thought Carson Palmer was complete garbage back then too along with many others. That doesn't make you a sports psychic. JFC.
I really do like you overall Hootie, but you are blinded by Kobe hate on this one 100%

Even with Nash healthy, the Lakers cannot replace Kobe's production or shooting.
