moron

d'angelo right now = 37 year old kobe


same stats and efficiency
The opposition is actually playing defense on D'Angelo.....KoME didn't have to worry about that last season.


The answer is KoME and it's not even close.

lakers were 4-12 without kobe last year and 11-35 without kobe in 2015


and all d'angelo takes is fall aways and threes. the only defender is himself

Lakers aren't a team that ever tanks on purpose. And the teams that do haven't proven it to be a great strategy. 76ers have been the same shit team after countless years tanking now. I doubt Lakers are taking their strategy cues from the 76ers.

Lakers were trying to win, but couldn't because of kobe

you don't have a clue do you


after jerry died. so did the laker tradition of not tanking. not penny pinching. trading picks and expiring deals for allstars etc...

when jerry died. they let everyone walk. play under the cap now. they tank

oh yes.

they tank


jim did it because he wanted young guys he could take credit for. he didn't wanna buy a title. he wanted to create a title through drafting

his ego is that big



now stop talking. you're a homo

The team is actually able to run and execute plays now. They don't have to stand around and watch KoISObe on his retarded farewell tour taking uncontested shots.

Shut up troll. Our playoff bet looms only problem is lakers playing better than 8th seed they may end up with home court advantage in the first round - face the Warriors in the semis or WCF and you get off Scott free on the upset wager.

Either way I'm a lakers fan I win and you're still a cunt face lil bitch so STFU!!

Bro, we're not talking about prime Kobe, we're talking about 20th season one-Achilles Kobe. The latter version was dog shit and made the team worse. Now he's gone, and we added a great coach, and the team is better.

Griff isn't a certified Laker fan so his opinion is irrelevant.

bro, i'm not saying kobe didn't make the lakers worse. he did. but he didn't turn them from a 45 win team into a 17 win team

i think last year without tanking they win 30 games ... this years team obviously has massive improvements through free agents and coaching

but the biggest difference is last 2 years they wanted a high draft pick. this year they want a playoff spot




dunno if yall are just too proud or too stupid


either way its making me regret being a part of this place

They begged Dwigth to stay and pay him the max.

Jerry first tried trading Pau in 2011.

You need to come to terms with the fact that Kobe was in fact a complete failure late in his career at an age that many other superstars have still been extremely productive.

Trying to deny that just exposes you as a clown
when did i say kobe was great. infact i called 1 legged kobe the worst player in nba history at one point


i'm saying you're a fucking idiot for thinking kobe sucking hurt the lakers.


it infact was the greatest thing possible... he filled the seats AND got the team a slew of up and coming stars for the future


they needed every one of those losses


but i'm not about to sit here and agree that the exact same stat line under d'angelo russell can catapult the lakers into the playoffs just because his name isn't kobe bryant


kobe sucked. yes. but the lakers made sure to suck as a team when it mattered most


and you're too fucking jewish to understand anything other than hiding gold up your ass ... so just give up the basketball conversation already
