After losing to the San Antonio Spurs in a four game sweep the Los Angeles Lakers have a lot of unanswered questions going into this offseason. First, what do we do with D12? His contract is up and he had some problems this season with free throws and anger on the court. He was ejected in the third quater of the game four loss to the Spurs which ended the season and maybe his future with the Lakers. I would love to have D12 back in a Lakers uniform as I’m sure alot of Laker fans do. But it’s not up to us. Second, why did they hire Mike D’Antoni for our head coaching job when we could of had Phil back?? We could have went with Phil Jackson, a great coach who has enough rings from the Lakers and the Bulls. Third, what about Kobe? Can he play at the same level as he has been after this achilles tendon tear? If not, who will lead this Lakers team to more championships? I don’t know the answer to these questions but I do have an opinion and now you know it.

We have a new contributor who will discuss sports: The Raven. If you like any sport other than women’s beach volleyball, you can discuss it here. The Raven doesn’t cover any sport that doesn’t involve grass, astro-turf, wooden floors or clay, so sandy beaches are outside of his knowledge base. Welcome, Danny “The Raven” to That Grinds My Gears.
