Nice ZZ Top reference thereback to topic: Love is great offensively, and he's younger than Gasol. That said, he's also a liability on defense. Still, I think he'll fit easily into the triangle offense. Oh, wait...
i believe the talks about the "old Lakers" are a bit extreme. sure they would like to get younger as their bench is also a bit old [blake, barnes, odom are 30+]. but we are talking about a team that went so many years deep in the playoffs and that is not something you can avoid. after this season's rest, they could easily play with more energy this year. they are not 35 years old. Kobe is 33, Pau is 31 next week, Odom 32 in november. I mean come on, remember the Celtics !?!? KG was 32, Pierce 31 and Allen 33 when they won their championship. and two years later were back in the finals , lost it at 7.
