that's right, the 76ers did it on purpose
this from a lakers fan is laughable
why? most of the Lakers problems stem from the fact that they made deals to try to extend Kobe's window and those deals backfired - that's the opposite of the process
yea and our problems come from the bynum disaster...whats your point?...they both tanked(and rightly so)...we just didnt bother disguising it...still ended up in the same place...only difference is you guys wasted money on deng and mozgov so you dont catch as much heat about it as we do
your problems were/are hinkie's master plan - the Howard and Nash trades were about trying to compete for a little bit longer - it was the opposite of the process in fact and you were a sub .500 team when you made the Bynum trade and he wasn't going to do too much to change that fact
actually we lost in 7 to the celtics in the semis the year before the bynum trade(d-rose injury but still an above .500 playoff team)....jrue/j-rich/turner/thad/bynum would have been a playoff team and were predicted to be by all the experts...now i dont think that core ever competes for a title but we were trying to compete just like you were...and just like your howard/nash moves, it failed miserably and let to both of us tanking
the lakers and and the sixers have been on the same path since the 13-14 season...you can call it the process or you can call it kobes retirement tour..it doesnt matter they both tanked
