What the 2013-14 NBA Season Means To Kobe Bryant's legacy by Ace Feltman Although Adam Levine of Maroon 5 and a bunch of Twitter users may object, the Los Angeles Lakers are not a title contender. They are not a threat and they aren’t going to make any noise this year, other than that “dun dun dun dun, dun dun dun dun” after a made basket. They still get some of those, Laker Nation!

by Rodney Fisher DeMarcus Cousins and Paul Gasol will start their NBA season in much different situations. Photo credit NBA  While Kobe Bryant is trying every miracle of medicine to get back on the court as soon as possible, his teammates will start the season with pretty low expectations. The Kings, on the other hand, have much higher expectations with a secured building block player and a new ownership to help direct the project. A few realizations came to mind watching both teams play in Las Vegas, of all places, at the MGM, since both teams are gambling this season anyway.

by Matt Silverston The good news for Pau Gasol is that its already halfway through August, and the Lakers haven't started shopping him around the league yet (at least not openly). The bad news for Pau is that the keyword in the previous phrase was "yet."
