No photo recap of last season for the Lakers wouldn't be complete without a shot of the most important Laker, Dick Bavetta...unfortunately the only photos I've found show him from behind breaking up fights. Thus I'll just leave you with some quotes from the media. You should be ashamed to crow about last season.<br>
<br>
"If you saw Game 6, then you don't have to ask why the credibility of the league took a hit. If you didn't see it, you probably heard about it. Preordained outcome or not, the NBA has again been tainted by what went on. "--Randy Galloway FORT WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM<br>
<br>
"I think if you put the two best Lakers together with the three best referees, that's a perfect team, probably the best the NBA has ever seen.<br>
<br>
I know the five of them did a great job together Friday night to beat the Sacramento Kings.<br>
<br>
In fact, right now I'd be willing to trade Rick Fox, Samaki Walker and Robert Horry straight up for Dick Bavetta, Bob Delaney and Ted Bernhardt."--T.J. Simers LA TIMES<br>
<br>
"The Kings and Lakers didn't decide this series would be extended until Sunday, three referees did."--Michael Wilbon WASHINGTON POST<br>
