No , No and No.I feel so happy for Rob Pelinka, Magic Johnson, and Jeanie Buss. If anyone deserves it, its them.

....they were the beloved franchise against the evil Celtics who colluded to win a title.
It wasn't really. They were going to win it regardless. If they were the clear underdogs and pulled out an upset then yeah you could say they did it for Kobe. He inspired them.I couldn’t be any happier for a hated rival to win it all. It was all for Kobe.
GTFO. It's funny that you seem to have a problem with Boston trading for Garnett and Allen but zero problems with the Lakers trading for Davis.
it went from "the lakers can't beat good teams" to "they were gonna win it regardless"It wasn't really. They were going to win it regardless. If they were the clear underdogs and pulled out an upset then yeah you could say they did it for Kobe. He inspired them.

I think the main gripe he's referring to with the "collusion" comment is that a former Celtic who was GM in Minnesota took a clearly lesser package from his old team for Garnett than what was being offered by LAL. If it'd been almost any other GM in charge who had no particular feelings towards the Celtics, KG most likely ends up in LA with Kobe.
I honestly think that whole " McHale doing his buddy a favor " thing is complete BS. I just can't see any GM trading away his only star player and put his job on the line just to help out a former teammate. If it is true then McHale was an idiot and deserved to be fired immediately. I can't remember what the Lakers reportedly offered but Boston definitely traded away some good pieces.
That's funny because Vegas had the Lakers as the favorites at 7-2.
Professional analyst are just as wrong as bettors.Vegas numbers aren't based on professional analysis, it's based on bettors. Not the same thing.
aside from winning it for kobe, the best part is that they've tied boston for the most titles in NBA history
imagine if you had told someone that back in the 60s or 70s
I like it cause it completely erases Celtics fans only rebuttal/talking point of "17 TITLES! WE HAVE 1 MORE THAN THE LAKERS!!!"
