    I would imagine that all the lakers need to do is allow kobe to be kobe on this currently constructed team and it will be just like tanking!

    Let kobe fire up 35 shots a game and get his $$$. Then walk away after next year. Everyone wins.

    As RD said, go big in FA in another year after kobe is gone and you have a nice substantial amount of young talent.

    Jimmy Buss is an idiot ... Jeanie will be running the total show in 24 months.

    What has Jeanie Buss ever done other than fuck Phil Jackson?
    You mean besides running the business side of the Lakers and locking them into the super lucrative tv deal with Time Warner? Hard to argue that she's made any wrong call in that regard since Jerry Buss's death.

    Hard to read any article with her and not see that she's sharp and Jimmy is an idiot:

    Lol at giving Jeanie Buss any credit for the tv deal. The Lakers were long established as a premier franchise before Jeanie took over. They got the tv deal because of the demand. Giving her credit for that is like giving Donald Sterling credit for having a franchise worth 2 billion.

    She's social and knows how to play the media game better than Jim. Aligning with Phil Jackson helped perceptions as well. I really don't know what she has done to earn any praise.

    Jimmy is on the basketball side and mostly cedes the decision making to Kupcheck. People hate nepotism and Jimmy likes to drink and drug. He's probably an idiot, but I've never understood why he gets all the shit and Jeanie gets a pass. It seems like media bullshit to me.

    The Lakers are after Cousins and the 6th pick for the 2nd pick and the kid from Kentucky that was hurt all year

    Getting Cousins would be a great move for the Lakers. The Kings might be the dumbest team in the league.

    Let's not shortchange Jordan and the Bobcat, errr, hornets. The model of a franchise is letting jordan be your owner/GM when his barometer is whether he can beat a player 1-1

    Cousins for Randle and the 2nd pick probably is a reasonable deal ... if the Lakers get the 6th pick back that's even more comical.

    But then again, this is why the Lakers are the Lakers and the Kings are the Kings.
