Thats totally true. I have to admit the Laker bench is one of the worst I've seen in a long time and OKC is stacked to the tits. I live close to Seattle so I have always been a Sonic fan and once they left it was a joke. They finally had a team since the finals against Chicago back when Payton was around and Kemp was worried about having to take care of all 7, 8 or is it 9 kids? lol
By saying Durant could be leading scorer on a dif team, doesnt that quailify him as an ELITE player like Dylan said earlier?
If someone can play anywhere, no matter how bad the bench or great I think it speaks volumes. LA I think needs to rebuild the team from the ground up and put the main focus on Bynum.
Durant off the bench is crazy, the mofo would be a starter anywhere else in the league! I still dont know why LA was willing to get rid of Odom, for nothing. He was last years best bench player without a doubt. I don't know what the hell they were thinking.
They need to get a supporting cast and fast. My only issue is can Kobe play with another top tier player? I don't think he can, he wants to be number one and only number one. I think Wade and Lebron had the same problem until Wade stepped aside and told Lebron that its his team. Similar to what Shaq did in Miami when he first played there. He told Wade its his team to lead and that Wade is the go to guy.
With no other threats on the LA roster you know almost 90% of the time the ball is going to Kobe, you can't win like that.
