Not a chance. Not with this team in the Western Conference. Kobe cant carry this bunch to a Championship. It will take a couple more years before that happens and the Lakers will need to bring in some key players and dump some garbage. I kinda like what they have for now , getting big guys for the Triangle Offense and they'll look to use Kobe and Lamar Odom a lot. Still , this team is a ways away from contending.
