Just wondering if the line down in the southland was different than the 
line here.  First game has the spurs by 4 1/2.   the lakers have 
dissension?  they can't play well without turmoil.   The fella who has 
really disappointed me is Gary Payton.  He is now a role player and should 
quietly lead by example, but instead cries for not playing in the 4th 
quarter.  I don't think he will be on the team next year, but I could be 
wrong. I'll put my money with the lakers this year.
