MWP willing to take a pay cut but is he willing to take a lesser role is the question

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Kobe won't be forced to give up any of his salary, nor do I believe he should. He has every right to demand the most that he feels he deserves.

This is the question that should be asked. If he realizes he's older not a Bull or Pacer Ron Artest and is only good in spurts, he could still be a nice asset for us. I would like to get Trevor back in a starting capacity, don't know if it's possible. Pau however must go, no ifs ands or buts anymore.

Say Ron does take a lesser role. Does that mean we use the amnesty clause on Pau-$19 million off the books or try and get some depth for him instead?

Season ending 6 game skid. Priceless.

Definitely do not see this happening. Kings n mavs won't beat the lakers.

Look, nothing can save this team except a new coach and youth.

What makes Mark Jackson a bum is that he thinks that beating the Lakers in this condition means ****. Puffing out his chest to the media like he knows anything. Love to see how he'd do without all those expensive assistant coaches that the Warriors surrounded him with.

Let's see the Warriors get molly whopped in the playoffs and find out how smart your coach is.

This is the damn truth right here. Youth and a new coach please Jimbo!

When was the last time our team was actually YOUTHFUL?

As in, a majority of the players being young instead of so old and slow.

 

[laker4lifeman]

2007?

 

[CP1708]

2008. Nobody was 30 yet. The bench was all kids.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

I thought the 2008-2009 team was perfectly balanced in terms of age.

 

[CP1708]

I forgot Fish was past 30 in 08. Still, the team itself was young.

 

[teamlakers909]

Watching Napolean Dynamite and I just noticed that DH looks like Lafawnduh.

 

[westcoastsfinest]

I thought the 2008-2009 team was perfectly balanced in terms of age.

That '09 team was full of youth.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

I miss Trevor.

 

[westcoastsfinest]

I miss Trevor.

He was easily one of my favorite Laker. If he stayed, he would've been right there with Eddie/Kobe/Magic

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I thought the 2008-2009 team was perfectly balanced in terms of age.

That '09 team was full of youth.

We had youth, speed and athletes on that team. Kobe, Trevor, Shannon, Farmar, Odom.

We got old and slow real quick.

pau back to the bench

 

[essential1]

pau back to the bench

Makes sense.

Hallelujah

 

[mosk33toe]

pau back to the bench

Link or story?

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

I thought MDA decided months ago that Pau needed to come off the bench? Did he forget and is just remembering?

What a clown.

 

[armorrig]

they probably tried to experiment again, but this late in the season, 2 games was more than enough. hopefully they right the ship starting next game. can't afford any more losses.

 

[grandtheftbike]

Because of Clark's recent slump
Then he realized paus slump was way worse

Honestly, I just want the playoffs to start so we can see once and for all if we have any kind of heart when it matters.

If we end up losing in the first round, my jimmies can finally take a damn break from being rustled by this team. It'll be upsetting but at the same time no more damn stress over this joke of a squad for a long summer.

If we win the first round, cool...our team ain't as bad as they look right now and we have a shot.

Either way...playoffs need to hurry and start before we give up that 8th seed to the hot mavericks
