No team with the exception of the Mavs has won a chip without a great frontcourt defensive duo. And that year Dirk played inspired D.
Neither Randle or Okafor get stops. Terrible pairing. Lakers will lose for 10 plus years with them in the starting lineup.

That's why part of me feels that the Lakers may take Russell w/ the #2 pick and draft Upshaw w/ their next pick... or a surprise trade happens for Cousins... and yeah I'm aware that Divac said that Cousins is "untradeable." I don't really believe him tho.

You two would make terrible GMs. I am glad there are professionals at the helm.

absolutely. You need a guy like Ibaka or someone if you plan on competing with Okafor at center.
