being traded for O'Neal. Let's see, if you trade for Dirk and Nash, for instance, you have Kobe, Nash and Dirk and no post play -- you end up being EXACTLY what the Mavs are now! WHY would LA want to do that? At least with Nash and Kobe you have a great backcourt -- you could possibly add a frontcourt player in the future! The Lakers have to have a post game -- I would rather see the Lakers get Peja than Dirk -- just because Dirk is ALWAYS going to get the max -- I don't think Peja will.
