    No, I'm not kidding. And "starter minutes" are different for every player. Some players are more effective earlier in the game, while some later....

Either way, now we have a bunch of wannabe sports reporters/GM's spewing from their pie holes about the Lakers and where they are lacking.

    This team is BUILT FOR THE PLAYOFFS. We've been hearing about how Fisher is "too slow" and a "liability" for so many years I lost count. Yet, come playoff time...........he gets the job done. Same with Pau being "soft".....well.....guess what.....Pau is good for a solid 19 & 11 per game come playoff time.

    Sure, this thread is about tonights game, but too many blow hards are talking about the demise of the Lakers WAY TOO SOON. Will they win tonight......in Boston......where the leprechauns have been close to unbeatable this season? Who knows....Vegas says they wont. Personally, I think they'll get it done. Lets just all keep in mind that until somebody knocks the Purple & Gold out of the playoffs......they are still YOUR DADDY!
    Yes I agree, to a certain extent that too many people are writing off the Lakers. But this isn't the same Laker team, they are older. And your argument would be a lot more effective if the Lakers were not considering "significant" trades before the deadline.... They maybe built for the playoffs but management is concerned, and rightly so....

    Who exactly says they are considering "significant" trades? The media? The Nuggets (trying to raise the offer from the Knicks)?

    Jimmy Buss is in love with Bynum.............this trade is not even on the table.

    Oh, you don't think they are serious about making some changes?? That's funny. But I can't argue with Jimmy's love affair with Bynum...
