And they still won't be able to get by OKC in the west...

You seriously think a team of Nash/Kobe/MWP/Pau/D12 with a bench that has Jamison and possibly Brandon Rush as the main scorers wouldn't get by OKC....come on man, that's just laughable. With Sessions at PG and Pau not being utilized they were right there. You can say 4-1 all you want, but the fact is they had two of those games won and let them slip away late due to bad execution. So now your adding arguably the best facilitator in the game in Nash, and the best defensive force in D12, not to mention a guy off the bench who averaged almost 18ppg and 6rpg and you think they won't get by. Hell Nash alone may have been enough with how much better Pau will play running the pick and pop with him....

:lol: :lol: :lol:

OKC is the new powerhouse in the west. The Lakers cant get by them. Which is probably good for them anyway because Kobe losing to LeBron and the Heat in a Finals would crush his fans spirit. Dude will be 34 next month, its probably good he stays out of the Finals from here on out.

So a team that needed just a little bit of a punch to their bench to win that series adds Steve Nash, then potentially D12, Jamison and Rush and they wouldn't win that series against the same team?? Laughable KT....

LOLOLOLOL!!!!

You know I really just try to avoid quoting your posts because you are SOOOO wrong about EVERY SINGLE THING you write!

Where do you get your logic from? How sad is your life being a racist Bobcat fan? Does it hurt to watch the Lakers have so much success all the time??

I already got superman on my football team, I can't wait to get one for my basketball team!

It says a lot that Laker fans concede Kobe needs "help". He's no LeBron, he cant do the heavy lifting and take teams to the Finals on his back. He needs the best frontcourt in the NBA to be successful. And even more so he needs the best coach in NBA history to win. What has Kobe won or done since Phil left town? What about before he came into town? LeBron just won with Erik Spoelstra as his coach. There's no quick fix Laker fans, your run is over and the sooner you guys realize it the better. I said it before last season, let me say it one more time....

KOBE BRYANT WILL NEVER PLAY IN ANOTHER NBA FINALS AGAIN

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
