I was at the Team LA store working what a dream that was I met Kobe, Shaq, Rick Fox, Lamar Odom, Lisa Leslie, Greatsky, Robert Ory, from 99-2001.

the Lakers were more fun to watch when Shaq was on the team, they are far from entertaining these days

@nobodysperfect06 I agree

yeah, the most recent Laker Parades in 2009 and 2010 were boring, lame, seriously the early 2000's ones 2000, 2001, 2002 were so much fun, Shaq is the King of Victory Celebrations, Dwight Howard will never be Shaq(character-wise)

eventhough this may make me sound like a Bandwagoner, that i was never a true Laker fan, but honestly, I loved the Lakers when Shaq was on the team, nowadays, i'm not really fond of them, in a phrase, i don't like them anymore, it's a long story
