It's been a long time coming for the Lakers to be back on the top on the NBA. WIth Kobe leading and Gasol and Odom playing huge role as far as their consistancy, I can taste another championship.  The bench has a new found energy we lacked in the past several seasons... Turiaf keep up the true spirit of what we love about sports and the rest of the guys just keep doing what you do. We patiently await Andrew Bynum's recovery for next season... and hopefully when the young guy gets back we can be looking at a Back-2-Back like the good ol' days. Lets start a new Dynasty in LA where it belongs. Last thing KOBE BRYANT the greatest player in the NBA  congratulations on winning MVP... remain a Laker for life!
