Are the Lakers better off without Kobe Bryant after their impressive back-to-back victories?

Yes, because they play as a TEAM.

No, because they have no one to go to in crunch-time.

Thats a pretty tricky question you cant really answer that unless Kobe misses 10 games and then plays 10 just check how they did with him and without him. even without Kobe, Lamar looks like a great leader for the Lakers.

Yes.When kobe gets back the whole laker team will just stand there and expect kobe to do all the work.Without kobe the team knows that they have no REAL star player like a kobe so they try there hardest

NO, the back-to- back victories prove that they can win without Kobe, but they have yet to play some of the other competitive teams to completely evaluate their talent.

With out Kobe, it will make the team look like they are missing someone. We need Kobe, he's No. 1 in the team. Sorry to say about Shack, he was only good for Dunks. When Kobe is ready to retire, then the next best player will take his place.

No because if they do have Kobe, they will increase the score that they win by and have a better chance at reaching an NBA championship.

lakers are good without kobe bryant but when kobe bryant is there it is the best

They sure did look good, didn't they? Those youngsters have so much energy -- and, in fact, proving the triangle really works.

I think Kobe will make the team better.

they play more of a team game so for that yes however if the games come down to the crunch and they need a basket to tie or lose the game or maybe even win the game then no because they won't have anybody would could come through

No. Greatness is measured by consistency and two games is not enough to determine how the lakers will do without him.

yes theyre way better off. they should trade kobe for a 2nd round draft pick to the heat because that would be the funniest thing i could ever see.kobe and shaq back together again.
