Kobe, Lakers are 4 real!

It was an amazing victory. By the end of the 3rd quarter The Black Mamba was sensing his fourth title. Grinding his teeth and motivating his teammates. Imagine if Kobe had played like this in Last year's defeat to the Boston Celtics, they could have probably beat them in 5 games. The Lakers have yet to share the trophy with the great fans of Los Angeles. Mitch Kupchak can celebrate now, but he has to think about what to do with this year's roster. Do you sign Odom and Ariza or do you let go of them? I believe it's worth the risk, if there is any risk.

You got to sign Ariza
Posted By InspectorGadget InspectorGadget | 5 months ago
Ideally, the Lakers would want to resign Odom and Ariza. They both played major roles in the playoffs, finals, and the outcome of a championship. However, if they have to pick one over the other, it's a tough call. Ariza is great on defense and his offensive game has developed quite well (especially his 3 point shooting). Odom on the other hand is so versatile and when his game is on, the Lakers can't lose. However, he is very inconsistent. At the end of the day, I'd probably pick Ariza. The guy made huge shots in the championship run and some big steals as well. He's also more consistent than Odom. Hopefully both can return though.
