Ever since Shaq, Malone, and GP left watching Lakers games has felt so empty. There were 6 class players, Kobe, Shaq, Malone, GP, Fox, and Fisher. All gone, it makes it feel sad looking back at the years. Malone and GP only stayed for 2 years but they made it fun. Anyone else feel this way?
Well now we have a younger team and more excitement by seeing Kobe put amazing numbers, but it would be nice to have those title days show up again. I think we are still just a couple of adjustments from getting that feelign back.
Ah, to me it was more exciting. Shaq was old, and big so he naturally looked like a leader. He did lead us to 3 rings, it just feels empty without the Big fella. This is why I stress appreciating Shaq to other Lakers fans.
i dont miss itid like too forget itremember we got to the finals and THEN losti would like to forget about that memory thank you very muchand gary payton is a little bi*ch cuz he screwd us so we couldnt get marcus banks
What the hell are you talking about? Gary Payton wanted to stay in LA, after he got traded to Boston, he was pretty upset. I think you need to get your facts straight buddy.

Imagine the reprucussions of wanting to live in a city all your life then getting traded, I don't htink he'd be too happy.
Exactly. He still has a home in LA anyways. GP was just such a fun guy to watch when he was part of the triangle offense. He was the most consistent player on the team in 2004.
