The Los Angeles Lakers were embarrassed in the 2nd Round of the Playoffs by the Dallas Mavericks. They were swept for the first time in the playoffs since the 1970's. And it looked bad.


Kobe Bryant is old and no longer a true number one on a team. Pau Gasol just does not come across as tough when inside the paint. Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum don't even look like they want to be there. Bynum's dirty and unnecessarily violent foul in the game seemed as an intentional way to get to leave the game. They just didn't look like the Lakers that won a championship only one year ago. 

It also seems as though Phil Jackson is gone for sure. He seems to be set on leaving. With 11, Jackson has won more championships than any other Coach from any professional sport in history. He literally has nothing left to prove.

So, Should the Lakers start over or try to win at least one more championship with the current team?
