Kobe and Shaq worked because Shaq was a beast and made life easier for Kobe. Kobe and Pau work because Pau's offensive game on the inside makes Kobe's job easier and Kobe has faith in giving Pau the ball in the post. Dwight just takes up room and fucks it up for everyone because his offensive game is not evolving and no opposing teams respects it. Trade his ass and gets some role players that can hit open 3s and play defense, like the Lakers used to have.

The Lakers really don't have time to sit here trying to reinvent how this team is going to flow. Kobe, Nash and Gasol have major mileage. But the thing is, they are all smart enough to play together because you have to respect all of them and they can all play off of eachother. Plus, keeping Dwight and resigning him doesn't do anything, because you can't build around Dwight. Orlando has shown us that he's not franchise. So what happens later when you still have Dwight after Kobe, Gasol and Nash are gone, and he's still looking for somebody to spoon-feed him the ball because he still doesn't have any post moves 3 years from now?
