How about MJ and Sir Charles signing on with the Lakers next year? This guy seems to think so.... http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/inside_game/marty_burns/news/2001/04/27/burns_insider/ Holy Cow! I never would have thought of that! What possible reason could they be looking for to do this? I mean the ring is a given, I'm thinking more of the undefeated season! For one, who has a team that could outscore Shaq, Kobe, and MJ???? Second, who the hell could get a rebound with Shaq and Sir Charles smothering the glass? Not to mention getting anything in the paint! ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness. [This message has been edited by Curly (edited May 14, 2001).]
Don't for get the over whelming favoritism of the REFs MJ BARK SHAQ and KOBE will get the benefit of EVERY CALL. Rocket River ------------------

We've reached the hat trick on threads discussing the same article. Where's Mango when you need him? http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/Forum2/HTML/001809.html http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/Forum2/HTML/001813.html

Sweet, I'm already up to the end of April on all my reading!!!!! Can't wait to see how the first round of the playoffs turn out! ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness.
It's about time even the sports writers caught on. Jordan always said the only coach he wanted to play for was Phil Jackson. Kobe goes to Phoenix for Kidd & Brock Marion maybe? Jordan gets the start in LA. I knew there was a reason Phil Jackson's been critical of Kobe this season ;-) ------------------ Founding Father of the Refs Suck Club
Wouldn't you love to be in that lockerroom, the combination of the egos of Jackson, Bryant, O'Neal, Barkely and Jordan would be almost a physical force. Like pea soup. Also, Wouldn't it be weird to have a team where Charles Barkely is considered the humble one? ------------------ Charles Barkely on the Raptors defeating the Knicks in Round 1 :"I think it was the Lord.

The Lakers could use a defensive enforcer. ------------------ Charles Barkely on the Raptors defeating the Knicks in Round 1 :"I think it was the Lord. The Lord was with the Raptors. You know the Knicks like to talk so much about religion, but I think the Lord was a Raptor fan."
My sources say the Rockets are looking into signing Gilbert Brown to anchor the center position. He'll literally anchor himself into the court, hard to get past that...
