This team can run fast, jump high, and overwhelm with gusto, not seen since the Magic Johnson period. Is that right?
Kobe should be delighted to work with this bunch!

Wasn't too long ago when we had farmar, ariza , Shannon brown. Laron profit. Lamar odom running the breaks. _________________ Pain is temporary, at the end of pain is success...

Profit wasn't part of that group. Profit played a few months for us in 2005-2006, and then ruptured his Achilles when Phil subbed him in for Kobe in the fourth quarter of the game where Kobe scored 62 on Dallas in three quarters.
Back when we had a younger Kobe, younger Odom, Ariza, Crittenton, and a pre injury Bynum.
Can't remember off the top of my head if we had Shannon Brown yet or not on that roster. _________________ "It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up."-The Greatest
The team sure is entertaining when they're playing well.
Which reminds me of a discusison about that, regarding Sacre. Sacre is highly entertaining when he is on the court. He should get more minutes! It also helps our interior defense a LOT. Win/win for fans and lakers! _________________ Kobe
nope, Kobe and Ariza were the only athletic ones on that squad, but this team, the athleticism is up and down the lineup
Shannon Brown disagrees! _________________ On Lakersground, a concern troll is someone who is a fan of another team, but pretends to be a Lakers fan with "concerns".
Hey guys, good to see you again! I was just marvelling how it seemed that every guy on the squad from top to bottom was just the (bleep) when it came to being the complete athlete that suddenly I'm a bit more interested in watching. Even when they lose it appears they are just a "Kobe Bryant" away from running teams off the court.
This could yet be a very, very, interesting season. Lately I've been all pumped up whenever Mike D calls for Nick Young. Dude is just fun to watch.
I LIKE THIS TEAM! _________________ "According to ESPN.com's conference projections, the Lakers will finish 12th in the West, which prompted Bryant to tweet earlier this offseason, "12th I see.."
