If you could add one Lakers legend to this team, who would it be?

    Kobe cuz then we’d have him alive again

    Throw Kobe in there, slide AR down to the 1. Way better spacing obviously, better shot making, better defensive versatility and makes it way easier to have Vando in the lineup.

  3. wut_eva_bish

    Add Kareem, remove Vando, everything fixed.

    A AD-Pau lineup would be really interesting. I’m sure guys like Kareem or Kobe would be potentially better fits and they’re better players, but that twin towers lineup between Pau and AD would be super intriguing.

    Kareem so ad can finally get his wish and only play the 4 .. plus we would allow no points in the paint

  6. Bigpoppalos

    First thought was magic. They just need a pg! Then I remembered, shaq. Hes always the answer. Slide everyone down and bron handles the rock. Ad doesnt bang with the big dogs

    Shaq solves a lot of our problems and was an underrated passer out of the post.

  8. tmacleon

    I would say Kobe, but Shaq on this team would absolutely destroy the league.

    Kareem would fit so well into this team in the C with LeBron and AD supporting bigs. Holy shit. I like Kareem’s touch over Shaq’s for this team, we have some strength. Finesse and 30+ a game would be sweet, and someone who can hit free throws.

    This is basically a thinly veiled: Kobe vs. Shaq pole… 🙂

    Without a doubt, Kobe Bean Bryant. That would mean he’s alive.

    i agree with magic mainly bc he would take the load off lebron that other lakers legends imo. the problem w the current lakers team is that bron is old and it’s hard for him not to get injured. adding magic makes the offense run by him and puts a lot of pressure off bron

  13. ablackcloudupahead

    Prime Shaq, Kobe, or Magic on this team would destroy the league. No way they don’t win a chip. Any one of those guys could also carry the team if AD or Bron got injured

  14. atierney14

    Definitely not Magic imo. His best talent is playmaking which everyone would benefit from, but Lebron’s best talent is playmaking too.

    This current Lebron can sometimes struggle scoring, and he’d benefit from some shooting, so I’d go Kobe

    Sorry just came to ask why a shopped Magic pic was included?

  16. uuneter1

    Worthy. Magic running Showtime with this squad? Sheeeeet.

  17. myelrecsy

    I know it’s not one, but imagine:

    Shaq, AD, Lebron, Kobe, Reaves.

  18. SedanoSucks

    I’m shocked it took me needing to scroll down to see Kobe. That said, I say Shaq as well. Un fucking stoppable

  19. Agreed_fact

    I see a lot of Shaq and I agree largely, however I’ll go another direction. Early Lakers Kareem. Two things, he is almost as dominant inside on both ends of the court as a prime Shaq, his skill at the position is nearly unrivalled. However the big thing here is availability, Kareem in his late 20’s/ early 30’s could block a shot, run the court as fast or faster than anyone else, catch the ball at the free throw line or mid post and throw a hook that was cash. And he could do it 80 games a season for years. Shaq may be more dominant but this team already has injury concerns.

    If your answer is Shaq or Kobe then you know ball(and not wrong.) If your answer is Kareem then you’re just old as shit like me and Magic.

    Remove Vando and add somebody like big game James. As much as I want shaq Vando is a liability in this 5
