The Lakers depth is pretty much dog shit. And with Kobe and Fisher having a shit ton of miles on their bodies, Bynum constantly brokedick and who knows what with Artest, that ain't much to rely upon. Quote:

You better pray to whatever thing you find holy that Gasol stays healthy. If he goes down, the Lakers are ****ed. Add to that that nearly every team in the West has brought in length - Jefferson to Utah, Turkoglu and Warrick to Phoenix, Aldrich to OKC, Chandler to Dallas, a healthy Griffin in LAC, etc. It seems that every team in the Western conference loaded up on length to combat the Lakers. The Lakers front court is going to take a pounding nearly every night this next season. |

lol. Ratliff is barely going to play at all. It goes, Bynum/Gasol then if they get into foul trouble Theo Ratliff. He's taking DJ Mbenga's spot. Did any one really see Mbenga play? Only in mop up duty.
Ratliff is 3rd in the rotation. He's still a good pick up to pick up some fouls if they need too, or give Bynum and Gasol a breather for 3 min. Gasol was out last year for a little bit and the Lakers were FINE!. you know who was his back up? Lamar Odom, you know who was 3rd in the rotation? Josh Powell. This year we got a rookie that can certainly do what Powell does in Caracter (spelling). |

This James to wherever has been a main topic of discussion for the past two years, where everyone seemed pretty certain that he'd be in NYC regardless. The guy was a free agent, had every right to go wherever he wanted to go, and he did so. End of story. The guy played in Cleveland for seven years. Some guys would love to have seven year NBA careers. He got them to the Finals. They brought in Shaq for another title run, but it didn't happen. Shaq didn't have much left in the tank at this point and he wanted to try for a ring. BFG. If there was a Gasol level signing in Cleveland as well as a good coaching hire, I'm sure that he'd probably still be there. (Even Kobe with Jackson coaching him, couldn't get out of the first round without another stud on the team, i.e., Gasol & Shaq.) I remember when Boozer did the same thing. The Cav fans were in an uproar about that one as well. I don't hear anyone bitching about Bosh giving up on his team, or any other free agent who is in another uniform this year. The media, and subsequently, the public's focus on James is utterly ridiculous. |

Of course you do.
Blake, Barnes, Odom, Caracter and either Brown or Sasha provide plenty of depth. I wouldn't expect you to understand that though. You have your head so far up your own ass, I'm surprised you could even type that last post.

What a complete bullshit article. Magic, Michael and Larry made players around them BETTER. I'm still trying to find one guy that LeBron ever made better in Cleveland.

The Lakers suck dude that's why they're the back to back NBA champions and have been in the finals 3 straight years. They're ****ed dude, anyone can see that.

There are so many people on this forum that try to post in this thread that have absolutely no idea about NBA basketball that think they do. Lakers with no depth? They have one of the deepest teams in the NBA. If they arent 1, they are top 3 for sure.
