The Lakers are absolutely stacked in the starting lineup with Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant, Metta World Peace, Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum. They've also got three very capable reserves in Antawn Jamison, Steve Blake and Jordan Hill.

Whether or not the current roster is enough to get the Lakers another NBA championship remains to be seen. But at the very least, the Lakers seem to be in a much better position to compete for a title than they were a year ago.
