 Cleveland adds Shaq, San Antonio adds Jefferson and gets back Ginobili, Boston was better than the Lakers when healthy, I still think Denver was better than the Lakers and I think Lawson as the backup PG will be a huge addition, and Orlando added Vince Carter.  Meanwhile the Lakers have added nothing, have Kobe getting a year older (which is a huge factor with the number of games he has played), and likely will lose either Ariza or Odom.  Everyone else is stepping forward and I think have moved ahead of the Lakers.
