PG: Chris Paul - Will run in circles around the Lakers PGs
SG: Ray Allen - One of the best shooters of all-time, made it rain on us in Game 6 of the 08' Finals
SF: Trevor Ariza - Their finisher, defensive specialist and even spot-up shooter.
PF: David West - tougher than Gasol and typically makes Gasol's life a living hell when facing each other
C: Nene - Athletic beast with toughness, something the Lakers still lack in.
It's a good thing that in 2008, the Spurs took out the Hornets in the 2nd round otherwise the Hornets would have made the Finals that year

Re: How would you build a team to beat the Lakers?
Thats 65 million for a starting line up right there. You'd need to snap d-leaguers for bench after that and still that team could get blown out on its good day.

j-far, Westbrook is a chucker, as is Billups at times, shooting threes with 18 seconds left in the possesion.

Re: How would you build a team to beat the Lakers?
PG: Chauncey Billups - He would exploit the hell out of our guards and keep us on our heels.
SG: Ray Allen - Will have us praying he's not on fire after running Kobe ragged through screens.
SF: Lebron James - I don't care how much Artest is improving; he's not stopping Lebron.
PF: Dirk Nowitzki - Dirk would easily spread the floor and force Bynumol out of the paint.
C: Shaquille O'Neal - He'd handle the rest of the dirty work while beating the crap out of Bynumol.
Bench
PG: Mike Bibby - Will burn us from the field if we're not honest on D.
SG: Richard Hamilton - He'd run Kobe ragged through screens for the entire night, circa 2004.
SF: Shane Battier - Has given Kobe problems in the past; a two-way threat on the court.
PF: Al Horford - A big & wide athlete that will hustle on both ends on the floor. A 17-10 threat.
C: Anderson Varejao - Would flop his way into cheap fouls called on Bynumol while cleaning up.
Reserves: SG-Roger Mason Jr., SF-Jamario Moon, PF-Udonis Haslem, C-Nene
Is it a 14 or 13 player limit?

PG: Chris Paul
SG: Dwayne Wade
SF: Lebron James
PF: Chris Bosh
C: Dwight Howard
^^I am sure this team can give the lakers a hard time,
Chris paul would run in circles, dwayne wade will keep kobe bryant occupied, Lebron James would just bulley his way inside the post, Chris Bosh would help too, and Dwight Howard would just smile the whole time just knowing he is part of a team that can beat the lakers
