**the official la lakers thread**

[-MAKAVELLI-]

i heard all the coaches got quiet in the locker room when they showed the WE WANT PHIL chants on tv.

heard kobe broke the ice and told the coaches to get to the adjustments and not pay attention to the chants.

WTF? lakerland is like bizarro world right now.

player consoling coaches.

kobe passing.

shaq telling someone to "try/play harder"

jerry west works for golden state.

pjax doing lakers ceremonies even though he doesn't work for LAL.

clippers better record than lakers.

lakers got worst by getting better (nash for fish, dwight for bynum)

WEIRD, WEIRD YEAR.

then to top it off i ran into Makavelli at bangluck plaza in noho wearing a bulls drose jersey.

that's a lot of money off the books, bud...


Pau is an expiring contract at $19mil per and Metta is set for another $7-8mil next season


there have been rumors that Metta is willing to opt out and take a paycut (he's crazy enough to do that)


the team lacks youth and athleticism...those are the moveable pieces that the FO has to deeply look at

It makes sense. I agree, they are in desperate need of some young guns. I wasn't doubting what you said, I was just asking. I just started watching basketball this year. My brother in law is an avid Lakers fan so I've become one inadvertently, watching most of the games this year with him.

With the emergence of Clark I can see MWP being gone....but Pau?? who do you replace him with in the starting line up???
