The triangle offense is not predicated on having a great point guard. Pippen and LO (forwards with good handling skills) were and are able to bring the ball up the court to initiate the offense. Understand the system the organization runs before you go into your "sign Kidd" or "sign Nate" banter. All we need is a serviceable guy who can move the ball, spot up for 3's and play solid "D" on some of the quicker guards. By resigning LO, Ariza and Brown you solve any and all issues for next season. Take a deep breath on the PG stuff guys. Your head will spin! You guys crack me up with all of this point guard talk.

Teams are going to be gunning for Kobe and the Lakers this season, A tough guy warrior sort player may be needed... And give the young, CHAMPION laker team more credit than that...

I think the Lakers could and should let Odom go. though a lot of fans now think they need to resign him. If they lose Brown and Odom, they could use that Money and pick up Kidd and Artest... That's the way they should go. Guys Odom isn't even a starter and Ariza and Bynum will be even better next season. Kidd and Artest - Odom = a stronger team...

Trust me. If this whole team comes back they won't have anybody to try to help win that first ring for. Phil's 10th? Check. Kobe's 4th? Check. Lamar's first? Check. Don't you think those guys will run through walls to help a future HOFer playing for the vet minimum win his first ring before he retires? Last year the Celtics had four of those guys in KG, Pierce, Allen, and P.J. Brown. Send Farmar elsewhere. No disrespect but they won't have any dough to re-sign him next year anyway and he doesn't look like he'll ever be a franchise point guard. He's got balls and he's a winner. But what we've seen so far isn't worth a long-term commitment. Never underestimate the value of a veteran without a ring. Trust me.
