Have the Lakers become too cheap to win it all?

Lakers have a serious size problem...

And they refuse to adress this problem...

Anyother NBA team would have signed a big man to a 10 day contract when their Starting Center and Starting PF was hurt...
And their backup Center and Backup PF was hurt...

Lakers lost their top 3 post players, and their ONLY 3 post players, and what did they do?
Nothing!

they are cheap...
They are worried about other things besides winning

sign troy murphy...
perfect Center for Dantonie...
Perfect stretch 4 for Dwight...

Troy murphy is the solution to all the lakers problems...
And signing Derek Fisher...

Sign Troy and D-Fish and save this season...

we don't suck, we have been injured...we lost a lot of games by being too small when hill and gasol ( sometimes Howard)

We lost some games because Duhon should not have been playing, let alone Morris.

i don't know how many years you have been a basketball fan but this is just a year where injuries do you in

thats definition for sucking bro, no matter what, we were expected to win and we are losing, struggling to reach the playoffs and probably to another second/first round exit.

by our standards we suck, plain and simple

It's definitely not a problem of them being cheap. They've stuck with a losing roster even with their salaries.

They just haven't made the right decisions.

We have an enormous payroll, you can't be serious here. Where the Lakers [expletive]ed up big time is with the coach, but I don't think that was a money issue since they did fire Mike Brown and are paying him 10 million a year to sit around and do nothing.
