Amen!

Here is a new Lakers fan from Spain to include in your list. I am 24 years old and I am a Lakers' fan since I was six or seven.

I am new as registered in RealGM but i have visited this forum since two years ago. I hope to write more the next season. Anyway I think we have a long summer because of teh transactions and free agents (Odomo & Ariza).

Saludos a todos!!!!!!

Thanks to Snaq and everyone else for sticking around and not losing heart in this team even through the lowest points like missing the playoffs and getting kicked out of the 1st round for consecutive seasons. Most teams take making the playoffs as a successful season but the fact that the Laker nation has rebuilt and won the championship in the same decade speaks volumes about the determination and greatness of the franchise and the players, people who run this organization.

Here's to all who kept the faith!

I still can't believe we did it.

At the same time, it feels like a letdown. That's it? It's over? We've been waiting 7 years for this, where's my champagne?

But really, how does the cliche go?

It's all about the journey.

Thanks for being around, fellas, I wouldn't bother to be here without you guys. It was a pleasure arguing, agreeing, agonizing, and celebrating together. Thanks to the posters we love and those we love to hate.

Despite whatever we went through, the truth is that we love the game, our team...

but most of all, each other.

Can we sub Verbal in for "emplay"?

I really want in.


+3 for teh thread.

and what a journey it was. from that last championship until this one seemed like a freakin eternity. damn im glad its over and we are back to champions again. i see us stayin at the top for a long while. or at least to a repeat defense of our title.

thanks to everyone for all the memories, you guys are the best

i love you guys

Amen, brother snaq. Right back at you.

Good thread. I'll chime in when I have more time.

Grandpa was a HUGE Mikan fan so my dad became a Lakers fan when they moved to LA since he chose to live in LA too lol when i was born i had no choice but to be a Lakers fan lol i went thru the Ceballos days, thru the Utah sweeps, the post-Shaq era and now i'm happy to celebrate again.

I enjoy every game even more when i'm on realgm talkin to all of you, good or bad. It's been a hell of a journey scratchin our way back to the top. It's been a pleasure, cheers to the Lakers and thanks for giving us a 15th to celebrate!
