I'm serious, we should bring back The Machine!
SMH... Remember when Kobe was one of the reasons this team can't be successful?
This strongly suggests that he is the ONLY reason we're competitive the second half of the
season.
Looks like we're starting Glock & Morris for gm 3 :x :x :x :x :x :x :x
Why more than anything else, the Lakers need to trade Pau this summer. He gets annihilated in pick and roll coverage.

Get it done Mitch!
Morris is buns. I swear his mistakes come from him trying his best to not make any mistakes
Should have kept djo instead
^ I've wanted to contend for awhile that I don't think the problem necessarily is that teams run out of gas, and the only evidence I have to support my hypothesis is the 90s Bulls.
I think the problem is that these really great teams... get figured out.
Assume the Heat win the title this year. Next year, if they fail, you'll be one of the members of the "Well hell, they won BACK TO BACK! They're tired!" club, and I don't stop there.
No doubt, they'd be tired after going back to back and then however far they went in the playoffs next year... but I'd be banking my money on the fact that they simply got targeted by the whole league, figured out by a few teams, and even fewer teams 'in the know' were lined up to play them in the playoffs, and they played one of those teams and got bounced.
90s Bulls? There offense was too fluid to figure out, their defensive rotations were too crisp... they were too good. Yes, in LARGE part to MJ, obviously, but it's not like they were SCRUB status while he picked up a bat. What they were doing, no one had an answer to. Sure, there were some threats to their 6 rings, but in the end, getting beat 3 times in 5 games or 4 times in 7 games... no one could figure it out.
And it didn't end because they were bounced from the playoffs after ALLLLLL THAAAAT MILEAGE. It ended... because they were disassembled.
The Pistons figured us out in '04. The Heat look REALLY impressive... and whether they lose this year or next year after going back2back or in 10 years after winning 9 straight, it won't be JUST because they're tired; someone... will have FINALLY... figured them out.
At the beginning of the season he was the least healthiest with his back issuesat Dwight being the healthiest player on the roster.
