Well try to dissect it for a little. Kobe is an unstoppable scoring machine and gets a lot of help from Bynum and Odom, who not only provides muscles but also point. NOt to mention Fisher drilling threes. That leaves Artest as theone who will provide defensive muscles. and he knows how to shoot too? Well we have one hell of a team doesn't it? And with his experience, intensity and tenacity I don't think we can question how effective he is.

Artest is deffinately an upgrade form Ariza. Better defender and a whole lot more body. Ariza was deffinately a lil more athletic. I'm nto sure if I wanna see Fisher dtarting for us again this year. He deffinately adds that veteran experience, but he just cant run up and down the court like he used to. He got punked by the younger and more rugged PG's in the payoffs. Lets get Lamar and call it another season.
