Kobe's not comparing himself to Shaq or to how many rings shaq has.
Kobe's too clutch of a player to compare himself to someone who's not even in the ballgame after the two minute mark.

Kobe has at least 5-6 more years in the league, on a young team.
Shaq has maybe one decent year left in that outta shape body.

All Kobe needs is ONE more player to support him and a consistent jump shooter, then the championship is money in the bank.

Some of you guys are sooo afraid of that. I can hear it in your posts even though you'll never admit it.

Man the Lakers fans have been crying about that one player away from a Championship mess for too long. The one player they are missing is Shaq!

Let's back that up on OUR LAKERS. :lol:
Bet SHAQ win's ANOTHER TITLE before KOBE even get's to the Western Conference finals. :lol:

I hate to bet against my own team, but I'll bet you that MIAMI will get rid of their dead weight and sign TOP PLAYERS to play along side of Shaq and WADE.

Bet MIAMI revamp their entire team around them in the off season cause it wasn't SHAQ averaging 20 plus point's and double digit rebounds per game that cost them.

I'll bet the LAKERS don't sign 1 TOP "BIG NAME" FREE AGENT.

EXAMPLE..............K.Garnett.
Leave the "money" out of it...................K.G is just an example of the player I'm talking about.

Hell...................... I'm calling it now.
If K.G. leaves Minnesota.....................He' will be in Miami.
 
I guess some u you guys weren't watching the games, if u are talking about Shaq is washed up. Shaq destroyed Ben Wallace, and would have done more if he didn't stay in foul trouble. Luol Deng, Kirk Hinrich, Ben Gordon, Andres Nocioni, were consistently beat their men, and that entails the problem. Jason Williams needs to be gone, he did nothing in the series. Gary Payton, gone. Eddie Jones, gone. Udonis Haslem, bench. I think they will make a run at either KG or Jermaine O'Neal. The draft is pretty deep. They need to be looking at a pure point guard and some help on the wing. Corey Brewer from Florida would or Jeff Green would really look nice in a Heat uniform.

There are very few teams that the Wolves could trade KG to. Miami doesn't have the assets (other than maybe draft picks) that it would take to trade for KG. With PHX having 2 first round draft picks next year, and maybe not wanting to re-sign S Marion, they would be a prime candidate to acquire KG.

As far as the Lakers go, there are only a few big name free agents out there this off-season (C Billups, R Lewis to name a few). The pickins will be slim. And Miami is a more attractive destination than LA.

Not saying KG as a definite........................Just an example of the caliber of player I'm talking about.
I'll bet if they could make it happen, K.G. would gladly take a pay cut to go to a Miami, Chicago, or Cleveland right about now.

He got all the cash he needs without a championship.
At this point..................$100,000,000 or $80,000,000...........Ain't no big difference to him right now.
But again...............KG is just an example I'm using.


I'm laughing at all this SHAQ being washed up talk when his performance was there for all to see is just clowning.

I'm saying that in 3 years the LAKERS has not been able to pull in any TOP PLAYERS and MONEY/SALARY CAP ain't an issue cause it never has been.
The LAKERS has alway's paid top salaries and alway's figured out a way to get guy's that wanted to come there.

AND THAT'S THE PROBLEM.......................3 YEARS...................NOBODY WANT'S TO COME outside of TOP 2nd TEIR PLAYERS.
2nd Teir players that used to come off the bench for the Lakers.

Miami will sign player because they WANT TO COME THERE and PLAY WITH D. WADE and SHAQ.

Who saying they want to come to LA and be part of the KOBE 1st--WIN 2nd experience. :lol:

Stagg, if the money's right, ANY player worth his weight in gold would go to the Lakers, or any other team for that matter.
Money talks, and that other stuff walks.

If money wasn't a factor, why did ben wallace leave a championship team to go to the bulls?? As the O'jays would sing it......money, money, money, money.......MONEY!!

This is about mitch kupchak not being able to wheel and deal, plain and simple.

JERRY WEST, PLEASE SEND HELP.....QUICK!!

Because Wallace got his rings. :eek: :D
He can go for the paycheck again.

Players like T. Mac, V. Carter, and K.G don't have that luxuary.
Their time is running out.

And as for Mitch...................He proved that by getting rid of SHAQ.
And that's my whole point.

Money is not the only issue SOMETIMES. Karl Malone could have gone somewhere other than the Lakers for more money. He chose LA because of Shaq & Kobe and the shot to play for a ring. A team like Miami will be more attractive to a free agent because with Wade & Shaq, they will be in the hunt for a ring every year until Shaq retires.

Riley says Heat must redevelop their team culture
Associated Press

MIAMI -- Pat Riley spent two days conducting end-of-season interviews with his Miami Heat players, all of whom apparently affirmed something he already knew.

The Heat thought they could "turn it on" when the playoffs rolled around. And that way of thinking, more than anything else, was what Riley feels doomed Miami's chance at successfully defending its NBA championship.

"It's almost irreversible, the notion that you can always turn it on because you're talented or you're a veteran team and you've done it before," Riley said Wednesday. "I think for once and for all, with this franchise, that will never be uttered again or thought again."

But with Shaq & Wade (for even just 1 more season), free agents are more likely to sign with Miami than LA.
