In fact, you could make a strong argument that it was the Thunder that gave the NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers their toughest test this season, at least before Boston took them the distance in The Finals. General manager Sam Presti would like to add a true low-post scorer to complement Durant as well as a solid three-point shooter. With three picks |

| (Sports Network) - With their 16th NBA championship safely tucked away, the Los Angeles Lakers will get to work on a three-peat by trying to unearth a shooter in the second round of the upcoming NBA Draft. Obviously a championship team doesn't have a lot of holes but when the Lakers do get in trouble, it's generally because they can't stretch the floor with a top-tier marksman and Sasha Vujacic certainly isn't the answer. The Lakers generally don't do much with the draft but since Jerry Buss wi |

LOS ANGELES (AP) -Unlike the gritty comeback that gave the Los Angeles Lakers an NBA title against their rival Boston Celtics, this year's victory parade will have no rallies. A compact championship parade - scaled back to rein in costs - is scheduled to stream through the streets of downtown Monday, minus the flashy rallies and side celebrations of past years. This year's bash will begin at Staples Center and make its way down Figueroa Street to the edge of the University of Southern Cal |

LOS ANGELES (AP) -With his record 11th NBA championship secured, Phil Jackson was evasive about his future with the Los Angeles Lakers. He's in the final year of his contract, with no word about a possible extension. He had said that if the Lakers won their second straight title, it would improve his chances of returning. He turns 65 in September. ``It does improve my chances,'' Jackson said after the Lakers' 83-79 victory over the Boston Celtics on Thursday night. ``That's a wonderful th |

LOS ANGELES (AP) -No one's blaming Ron Artest this time. The new guy who said it would be his fault if the Los Angeles Lakers didn't repeat as NBA champions is off the hook. They defeated the Boston Celtics 83-79 in Game 7 on Thursday night to win their 16th championship, helped greatly by Artest. He had 20 points on 7 of 18 shooting, five steals and five rebounds in his first season with the team. On a night when Kobe Bryant couldn't find the basket, the superstar trusted the guy with |
