Kobe Bryant or LeBron James?
This is one question that will be asked for years to come and debated over and over again, but what is the answer? Who is the better player? Who is more versatile?
New Comer Trevor Ariza
Finally the Lakers get something that they have needed for a long time, a good defender. He is no Ron Artest or Bruce Bowen, but he knows how to defend (he should teach Odom a thing or two) and he is not bad on the offensive end either.
Best Big Three in the NBA?
This year in the NBA has showcased some of the best three player tandems in recent memory, from Steve Nash, Amare Stoudemire and Leandro Barbosa to Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, the NBA has seen some phenomenal team play this season in the NBA

Just speculation and rumors once again, but word on the wire is that all-star point guard Jason Kidd is heading back to the place where he started his career in Dallas.

Ron Artest is still a nutcase - Video for proof
Nutcase checklist. Chest pounding - check Verbal confrontation with fans - check Physical confrontation with opposing players - check More chest pounding - check check And the list goes on.

Even though the Lakers seemed to be shadowed by negativity at the moment there are some positive things going on, if you can believe that. All starting with the Lakers 19th pick in Jarvis Crittenton. This kid looks good, very good!
Kobe Bryant's Future with the Lakers is Still in Doubt
Just when we thought that all the trade talks, rumors and BS was behind us, we get hit with the possibility of Kobe Bryant leaving the Los Angeles Lakers once again. When will this all end?

Stoudamire and Grizzlies agree to buyout
Damon Stoudamire and the Memphis Grizzlies have agreed in principle to a buyout that could be made official Monday
Play Overseas or in the NBA?
This off season has shown some interesting developments to prove this, mainly the interest of some of the NBA's best and brightest like Stephon Marbury, Chris Weber, Andrei Kirilenko, Dee Brown, Scottie Pippen and Ron Artest getting offers to play overseas.
Shawn Marion to the Lakers?
It seems that Shawn Marion is unhappy playing for the Phoenix Suns and wants to be traded (for sure), oh, and did I mention that he is good friends with Kobe Bryant? Yep, the two are pretty tight and best of all they have already spoken to each other about the possible trade and Kobe is all for it!
