I think the reason that The Lakers doesn�t play so well this days, it comes from two reasons. First, the team get enough successful. They are the NBA�s Champions for three straight seasons; 2000, 2001 and 2002. At that time Lakers was leaded by the head coach Fill Jackson and two super stars Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O�neal. Because of the successful, it makes the players feel saturated. In that time the Lakers were undefeated. But in the last two seasons, they didn�t successful. In 2003, they lose to the Spurs. And the last season they lose for the Detroit in the final round. So the team has to change something in this season. Second, in this season the Lakers has a lot of adjustment. They trade a lot of players such as; Derek Fisher, Rick Fox and Gary Payton. But the Biggest trade in the league is Shaquille O�neal to the Heat. The team gets three Heat players from the exchange which is Caron Butler, Brian Grant and Lamar Odom. Also the team head coach has change to Rudy Tomjanovich. In my opinion trading Shaquille is a very bad idea. If I was the president of the Lakers, I wouldn�t trade Shaquille. So this is why Lakers doesn�t play well, especially this season.

Professional basketball is a ridiculous game.
First of all, any game where you can score a combined total of over 200 in one hour means it is too easy to score.
Second of all it is played by giant men, who do not resemble in any way, normal sized people.
Third of all, it is boring, boring, boring, BORING.
