I am a laker lover (although I live in Toronto and cheer for the raptors, UGH) and agree that Kobe is being hung out to dry by a fan base that can't understand the extent of his brilliance. While Lebron MIGHT become someone resembling the next MJ (why do we always have to compare to him), Kobe is already there and has been for many years. he has the rings and the resume in big games to prove his worth. What he needs is another championshiop run that would receive a jump start if the lakers could pry KG away from the wolves. I'm not an Odom fan, never have been, and don't believe he will ever be more than a supporting player. A true point guard would also help.
I have slowly become more of an Odom fan lately. He has the skills, I just question his heart.
With all the speculation concerning KG, I have an inkling that he will remain in Minnesota although a change of scenery would probably be best for his career.
I definitely think a veteran point guard with defensive skills is on the offseason agenda, probably before a big man unless KG or maybe Ben Wallace show some interest.

I couldn't have said it any better about Raja, Shaq, Kobe, or LeBron than this post:
