Who does the best???
I think Miami, with Shaq and Wade they could do very well.

Miami is the clear winners, they're instant contenders. Whenever a team trades a superstar, it's very rare to get equal value back, especially a player of Shaq's caliber.

But the lakers do have a strong team still
Butler, Odom and of course Kobe........and dont forget guys like walton and rush who showed plenty in the playoffs are going to improve.
Still miami for me!

This will be known as a classic blunder for the Lakers.
And did you read Jerry Buss' plead to Kobe? Stay with those that love you. Year right, unless yer 32.
I think Kobe should pay attention to how Shaq was shipped off.

seriously, i hope kobe leaves and the lakers are a lotto team next year. Even with Kobe they won't get home field advntage in the playoffs. Kobe, Caron, Odom. Where are they gonna start? Caron will probably come off the bench unless they plan on using Kobe as a point off-guard since fish is leaving too

i feel sorry for odom, butler, and grant.............cuz they played great in the east.........but this is the WEST.....and odom is a very undersized power forward..........and grant a very undersized center..........butler wont get many shots due to kobe taking all of them.........
the heat get the better of this deal.......but they wont go to the Finals due to lack of depth at the 3 and 4 spots
Top 3 East seeding:
#1. Pistons (kept sheed, added mcdyess) #2. Pacers (added jackson, they have a great player in o'neal) #3. Heat (added O'Neal, the most dominant big man in the game)
Top 3 West seeding:
#1. Spurs (added Barry and kept manu, and could possibly get malone) #2. Kings (due to the division winner of the other division winning #2 seed, and the expectance of brad millier at starting center.....they will be good) #3. TWolves (will finish with a better record than the kings, have a nice core with the MVP, will do well this season)

Spurs-- yeh there pretty good... 3. Lakers-- although losing Shaq they still have payton.. kobe.. butler.. odom.. grant... thats a pretty good side... east will become more domident of conferences!

The only reason Miami is an instant contendor is because they are in the East

the reason miami is good is because of shaq and d wade. Thats what houston had last year, and they pulled off 7 seed in the west(good center, good PG)
obviously somneone's a laker fan, since he thinks they still have a chance in hell to get home field advantage, and somehow be better than the kings?!!? wtf are you thinking
