Assuming all their egos can co-exist peacefully and function together. That's an impressive lineup, no doubt, but until the season starts no one knows if they can gel together and work together as a team.
Yeah, look at the TrailBlazers. Many people thought they had a super star line up, bu they didn't get into the finals. But I gotta say this IS a pretty darn impressive lineup for th elakers though.

huge difference. Pippen wasn't hungry (he'd already won his championships) wallace doesn't have a clue . . .
on the lakers, Payton is hungry, the fact that he's willing to take a mid level exception instead of a Max contract like he could get tells you what his priority is. Malone will probably now sign with the lakers and HE's hungry, Kobe and shaq have already proven they can work together.
comparing them to the blazers is an apples to oranges comparison.
