The Lakers Need To Blow Up The Team 

Post#1 » by True_Laker_Fan » Mon Apr 29, 2013 2:48 am

One of them said that if every one came back healthy they could contend - I couldn't disagree more. Many of them are old and worn out and age will cause most of the players to start getting injury after injury until they have no choice but to quit. It would be extreme, but resign Dwight Howard first and gauge how to build around him, then if necessary trade Gasol for some younger players, and amnesty Kobe and trade Metta.

You don't honestly believe Kobe is going to be worth 30 million dollars next year do you.
