A Wake-Up Call From L.A. Rival March 30, 2005 So this purple shell that once battled to be the best team in the NBA has but one fight left. Can the Lakers finish this season as the best team in their own building? My, how the unsightly have fallen, from national champs to Figueroa flunkies, from sterling to Sterling. Could the Clippers actually finish with a better record? It has happened only twice in the 20 years that the two teams have shared the town like a bully and his little brother share ice cream. The most recent season was 1992-93, a monumental occasion best described in two bizarre concepts: 1)Sedale 2)Threatt Yeah, it has been that long, and it's now that bad, this winter reminiscent of the time when Threatt led the Lakers in scoring, assists, turnovers and mispronunciations.

good read... this is great to see the almighty Lakers crumble into mediocrity. they won't ever be the same. ever. its funny how in past years they were the ones recieving the great centers in trades (wilt, kareem) and now they are the ones trading the greatest of them all.. shaq. kobe wanted it like this, even though you Laker fans say "oh it wasnt Kobe's fault" come on now lol...... just like Atkins said "KOBE IS THE GM" r.i.p. Lakers. i love it.
hell lose Draft picks people No chance of play-offs time to showcase tradeboat and lose DAMMIT One loss season with good pick can lead to many win seasons HAHA
Lakers will never be the same? Muwhahaha. Cant wait till you eat your words. The Lakers will be back. Buss wont allow his franchise to go belly up. Mark my words. the Lakers will be back!
