The Ultimate Los Angeles Lakers Page 06 and present

After Shaq Lefts LA, The Lakeshow struggled the next season 05, Lakers havn't entered the playoffs for the 1st time in history, they fell in the bottom of the standings, since accquiring Lamar Odom and Bryan Grant from miami, that was not a good combo LA has been looking for, At those times kobe carries the team alone with butler. kobe can't carry a team if he plays the same way with shaq. own way, ballhugging.

The Ma man predicted that LA will be a future darkhorse as long as phil jackson returns to the ballclub. well his prediction came true, Phil jackson coached the lakers again in 06 i was watching the pistons spurs finals that time when quinito henson announced that phil jackson returns to LA and announced that he will coach again for the lakeshow.

which means the return of the most popular play in history of basketball, the triangle offense, phil jackson is familiar in that play since his days with chicago. back at 90's he developed the whole play with jordan. he will do it again this time to kobe system.











in 06 kobe made a history within 81 point game against chris bosh and the toronto raptors, its a rebirth of a kobe bryant. at that year, they also have kwame brown from the washington wizards and traded caron butler to the wizards. and drafted ronny turiaf out of gonzaga



Kobe Bryant .an all star achiever who later became a hungry man in championship, they lost in the 1st round of the playoffs against the more and bitter experienced phoenix suns team of steve nash, shawn marion and amare boris diaw, amare was injured that time thats why diaw tooks over amare's place.

that year also they accquired andrew bynum from the rookie draft and developed the young kid out of UConn Huskies.

he is quick and too aggressive on the floor. well he can't just be fighting for the shaded lane alone this days, Lamar Odom should be helping him, Lamar should'nt be underrated by this moment because he a veteran, he should mature, lets see next games if he will mature and play solid basketball.

this kid andrew bynum. just like amare, if he returns to the lineup that means, a new legacy has been born.







07 the entrance of Jordan Farmar. Farmar had played with the dleague team LA Dfenders and later recalled by the lakeshow and shows prescence on the court.

Farmar showed high flying skills and aggressiveness on the floor during the Suns Lakers Matchup in the 1st round of the playoffs, although. his 1st playoff appearance will mark the beginning of his legacy with LA.



07 season kobe bryant scored his 50 points every game. if in 06 he scored 81 vs toronto in 07 he scored 50 points per games, not bad for the mamba. after these records they exit again in the 1st round vs the much stronger phoenix suns amare played that series. they lost 4-1 in that series.







2008 NBA Playoffs (gasol's Prescence with Kobe)

In the Lakers first win over the Denver Nuggets, he contributed thirty-six points, sixteen rebounds, eight assists, and three blocks.

When the Lakers swept the first round of the 2007-08 playoffs against the Nuggets, it was Gasol's fourth trip to the playoffs and the first time he has not been on the losing end of a series. His previous team, the Grizzlies, did not make it to the playoffs for the second year in a row.

This has been Gasol's first trip beyond the first round as his team, the Lakers, made it to the Conference finals after defeating the Utah Jazz. He contributed 17 points and 13 rebounds in the Lakers clinching win to advance them to the conference finals.

On May 31, he recorded a career high 19 rebounds in a NBA Finals clinching win against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks his first trip to the NBA Finals, and becomes the first Spaniard to reach the finals.

Kobe Bryant Became an MVP this year as he finishes 1st above Chris Paul of the New Orleans Hornets and Lebron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Later in the conference finals.





The Lakers struggled over the defending champs in games 3 4 5. the game 4 was found contraversial, as brent barry's shot was uncounted and never called a fould, kobe announced that no foul. well i have no comments for it but it depends on a viewer if it is a foul or not, it depends on the officials if it is fixed or not.





NBA ratings eh?

the lakers had win its series over the Defending champs the san antonio spurs. which marked the new beginning of the lakeshow's emergence back on top. mitch kupchack and jerry west addresses the team's trophy and handles the trophy to the lakers general manager mitch kupchack. kobe is on a mission. they compare him to non other less micheal jordan. this is a serious achievement right. they

Now they play vs the most powerful team in NBA history today, The Boston Celtcs. led by Kevin garnett Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.

I bet This will took 7 games.

Lakers can survive but they need more backups. Bynum's Prescence on the floor.
Lakers had started a new legacy. Phil Jackson Did a Great Job for LA.
