We don't have any picks to trade.
No one is interested in helping us get back to being dominant.
Kobe is 36, not 27
We could trade for LeBron, today, and not be in the Finals this year, or anywhere close. The roster is bare.
07 had LO, and Kobe, along with Phil, and a couple other young emerging guys like Ariza, Farmar, and Pau fit into that.
We have Byron ******* Scott, Jordan Hill, Jeremy Lin, and Carlos Boozer.
It's not happening, no matter who we tried to trade for, with no picks to send, and no assets of value for that type of piece.

The 2014 Lakers had a little more talent than this version of the Lakers
I think its more about the players than Byron Scott
I don't think Byron Scott is great schematic coach but lets not act like Mike D'Antoni would setting the world on fire with this roster
He couldn't do anything with a better Kobe, Dwight Howard, Gasol, Nash, Blake

Maybe because they were almost never healthy at the same time. Percentage of minutes with Kobe-Nash-Pau-Dwight two years ago was 7.2%. Minutes with Kobe-Nash-Pau last year: zero.

Its a shame what the ownership is doing kobe is basically box office and being used as one, they know they have no shot at a chip or even trying to contend. My how things have changed with this legendary franchise, where are the ppl calling for buss head. I mean how long is the franchise wanting to continue like this?!?!?! its getting ugly and i cant imagine what the record will be at the end of the season...its beyond frustrating

Yeah it's so weird that a roster and coach in previous years was better than this current one.
So weird, especially when we're 1-7.

Nah, I was saying, it's weird that someone would have that opinion, that it would seem the team was better without Kobe last season, or any season, or ever.
Just, weird. Because there have been so many times when he has carried us to the promised land on his own.
So many times.
So, so many.
"Just stop, Ska. It's silly to pretend that any all-time great would flourish without a prominent teammate and excellent coach. Of course Kobe can't do it all by himself."
And I get that, and Kobe does, too. Which is why he's always gone out of his way to welcome everyone, being the ultimate encourager, fostering a 'team first, me second' environment across the board so that people will stay and others will join.
