If you think of the entire division as a day at the beach, then the Suns, Clippers, Warriors and Kings are nothing more than sandcastles waiting to be wiped out one more time by the purple wave of the Lakers.

 

After so much lip service given their desire to keep the roster of the 2009 NBA champs together, it didn't take long for L.A. to hold the door open for Trevor Ariza's exit and nobody is bending over backwards to make a strong move to re-sign Lamar Odom.

 

Does any of that matter when the Lakers still have Kobe Bryant? The short answer is: No.

 

The Clippers are planning their umpteenth resurrection, this time under No. 1 overall draft pick Blake Griffin. The Warriors are heralding the arrival of their newest sharpshooter to fit into "Nellie Ball." The Kings are struggling to put together a product that could generate enough interest to get them a new building and the Suns are, well, systematically taking apart a franchise that just a few years ago was contending for the Western Conference title.
