The Lakers suffered another heartbreaking disappointment this week as their Golden State Warriors. Kobe had surgery to repair the ruptured tendon, is still expected to be sidelined for the next six to nine months.

Kobe's ruptured tendon is just the latest in a string of injuries plaguing the Lakers this season. There is a little bit of silver lining to this whole debacle; maybe now a few players will actually be able to show off their baller skills.

Do you think this is the end of Kobe's career? Can the Lakers make it into the playoffs? Let us know in the comments!
