L.A. Lakers

I don't think Nash can run 82 games , so I'm thinking he starts the season with Lin the rest of the way.
Wesley over Swaggy is what I preferred when both signed with the Lakers.
everyone else is the obvious choice.

Obviously , were really a wee bit thin against most teams. So here's to a high pick in the draft next year (crossing fingers we keep our no1 draft). Wouldn't mind a surprise from this team but honestly can't see it. Hill may go down to an injury , Nash well ... , Bryants age and health. While we may have an okay 2nd team , I'm looking at management to continue the rebuild process.

Agree boss KE, previously Coach Scott said that he will not let Kobe play 82 games so I'm hoping he will also do that for Steve Nash but I think Nash is probably done, I just want him to help mold our young PG's. I would prefer JLin to start at PG then Kobe(SG), Johnson(SF), CBoozer(PF) and JHill(C).
2nd unit would be (PG)JClarkson,(SG)Henry,(SF)Young(PF)JRandle and (C)EDavis. Wish we can still grab big names during the season.

LAL will of course a non-title contender team for this season. They will just have to create combinations to able to play at par with other teams. KB will surely be on the twilight of his career. He is no-Jordan of course but I think he is more focusing right now is to break the 3rd All-Time Leading Scorer which is being held by THE GOAT.

Kobe Bryant Helped Team USA Basketball Regain Its Dominance with Single Game | Bleacher Report

Have you noticed? The world just doesn't seem to hate the U.S. men's national basketball team quite the way it once did.

The answer, at least for some, is the man who is not exactly known for readily acknowledging that anyone is on his level: Kobe Bean Bryant.

Tony Ronzone, longtime international scout, current player personnel director for the Dallas Mavericks and former Team USA executive, believes Sunday's success, along with every other international triumph over the last seven years, can be traced back to the first quarter of Group B's final game in the 2007 FIBA Americas in Las Vegas, Nevada.

That's when Bryant, having asked for the challenge of stopping the tournament's leading scorer to that point, Brazil's Leandro Barbosa, hounded Barbosa into losing his dribble and then dove onto the floor to retrieve the ball near midcourt.

"I swear that was the turning point," says Ronzone. "You saw the best player in the world at that time sacrificing his body for a loose ball. That turned us. Great players can play that way. It's looking in the mirror and saying, 'We have to play that way.'"

Klay Thompson Better Two-Way Guard Than Kobe According To His Agent | Lakers Nation

para bloat sa contract potential... after this season, klay is due to sign his first non-rookie contract. he could be asking for the maximum. syempre, as the agent of klay, ganahan gyud ka dako ug contract imong player, para dako pud kag bahin. in reality, klay will never come close to kobe, klay is a one dimensional player... a shooter, nothing more.
