The future is looking good-----we are a contender without Allen-----i love that we resigned paul, and extended KG the next 4
we should be a contender for a while

The future looks good because Garnett is one of those type of players that looks like he can give you a good 7-8 more years. I still think he can be a top 10 power forward at 37 years old.

I'm not sure, Allen Pierce and KG are all old, don't you think it's time you'd start cutting down their minutes, and that their gameplay will decline soon?

Actually that has been happening. They are averaging around 32 mpg for the month of March. They win by such a large margin so many times that they are able to rest even when Doc has no intention of resting them.

We have the best Duo in the L. So add Ray or paul to that and we have the best trio in the L in a long time. Think of one better? I can't in the past 10 years.

LAL has better quartet in Kobe, Pau, Bynum and Odom.

when their contracts are up, they will be about 35
we could move allen or have any free-agent we want to compliment them
i think that seattle has a young tandem that could = pierce/KG
durant and green, and they will have forever to play together.......not just 5
my point with this thread is that we will have a serious shot at the title
w/o Allen for at least the next 4 seasons after this one
everyone will want to play here
Thank-you Danny

no they dont. Rondo will be remembered better than Odom and Bynum by the time its all said and done.

Durant is a freak-phenom-------------could become the greatest ever
Green is an overachiever and has a great all around game
mix in a solid point and role players and they should contend for a while after those 2 develop

i said could be......................and why not?
the guy is 6'10 and can do just about anything he wants already----i havent seen a flaw or weakness in his game----i would have always taken him over oden (who will also be an elite type player)
when he finishes growing he will be unstopable
so whether or not he can play defense and impact the overall game will determine if he passes everyone else
he has the skills and talent to become the greatest ever IMO

haha durant is terrible man. he's gonna end up tmac at best, not saying that's bad or anything but he's not shown ANYTHING besides the fact that he can chuck with the best of them.

Oh, fair enough. He is unstoppable without any flaws. I'll grant you that.
But beyond being unstoppable and without flaw, what else does he bring to the table? I know he's an expert on tax law and is a world class debater and can cook 1 minute noodles in 30 seconds and all that, but what else?

I don't know Durant will have to overcome a lot of sucks to be the best ever

No.
I will tell you why. KB24 is only a little bit better than Paul. KG is infinetly better than Pau and Odom combined. Bynum is about the smae now as Perkins. SO we haven't even mentioned Ray allen yet. WHo always killed the lakers when he was on worse teams.

he will bring rebounding when he is fully grown and he is athetic and long enough to be a lock down defender
if he can learn to play defense..............jordan wasnt a great defender at first, but made himself an elite defender
the skills are there along with heart and strength................it wouldnt surprise at all if he finished as the greatest ever

Oh, yes of course. I forgot how high you are on that Rondo guy. If he is better than Bynum and Odom than it would prabably make sense to trade KG because Rondo can carry you, can't he?
Its good that you are high on your players but c'mon be realistic.
