He would have never shelled out that $$ if he didn't think that he would get a return on his investment. The Lakers 'brand' is huge worldwide, and buying championships for the next few years will guarantee that brand lasts well beyond Buss' s years. His great-grandkids will be wealthy for some time to come. $5M here and there is chump change for him (not for most of us!). There will be some changes, but you can bet that Buss will never be hurting with this 'core' of a team, headed by the great Kobe. Yeah, recall that Buss is a sharp businessman.

But since theyre not, then why are they still here? 2 years Sasha hasnt done much, Ammo since his injury hasnt done much. I normally wouldnt say this but its getting to the point where I cant stand to watch them any more, especially when the starters need rest. Its annoying to watch him, catch, shoot, miss.
