Nope the Laker channel is a regional sports network.
Best option for you is to get NBA League Pass. I think the broadband version is a cheaper version where u only pick 5 teams to watch and you pay like $99 for the whole season instead of $189 for the TV version of NBA League Pass.

Kobe looked... I mean... are we sure he busted his knee? Tore his Achilles? I'm not saying he's lying. Just... some video evidence that the Achilles was indeed torn would be very convincing.
The hell they do to you in Germany when you have a major injury and throw a ton of money at them? They got some kind of 'human parts' island like that ScarJo movie?

My prediction still stands for Kobe 23.4 / 4.5 / 6.5
1. A healthy Steve Nash is an upgrade over a lot of backup Point Guards (I know he's our starting PG, but I see him at best splitting in half with Lin). He's so smart on offense, that if he stayed healthy probably has 3 years left in him (Ignoring the defensive side of the ball). Lawson isn't a defensive stopper, but he is so much quicker than Steve Nash that he should never be able to get passed him, but uses his body and the body of a pick or other defenders to turn the corner and get that scoop layup. Also if he can find some space will always be automatic without a hand in his face when he shoots.
2. Jordan Clarkson will shoot A LOT. He attacks, so at least there is that. He made some nice corner 3s, which will be important for him to stay in the league if he's not going to be a PG. I'm still uncertain about him, will need to see more of him.
3. Jeremy Lin will never be able to shoot, but there are very few PGs who can get to the basket as easily as he does. Will be huge in the P&R game, and getting open shots for everybody. I already think there is a decent possibility that he is back next year.
4. Julius Randle is a god damn beast. He has so much strength. He's a little rigid, which will hurt how good he is until it settles down for him, but he already knows what he is doing out there. I look specifically at the one basket where he hop stepped out of the post toward the paint getting ready for a hook shot. He pump fakes, gets his defender in the air, pivots, and goes up with the left in traffic. That kind of awareness and getting yourself even the smallest of windows is something that takes years to use effectively. He's also so quick, quicker than almost every guy who will ever guard him. The one baseline reverse, he jab steeped and just blew by his guy like nothing. Also he has very good court vision for a PF. If you watch him bring the ball up off of a rebound, his head is always up, and he's looking for the open man. He will be really good as the roll man, if he gets a clear lane LOOK OUT. He seems to always awkwardly catch rebounds with his bicep. That's going to have some impact, but I think he'll still have a solid rebound rate. Only problems like stated: He's a little nonchalant at times, and of course that 15-18 foot shot. Predicting his stats will be tough because who knows his minutes, but I think 11 & 6.5 is an easy bet
5. Ed Davis was such a steal. Easy buckets on P&R and showed good rim protection. He will get himself a beautiful contract from somebody next year
6. The ball has trouble moving on offense. Sometimes looks a little stagnant out there.
7. Defense stank.
8. Kobe - The fadeaway and the baseline jumper are so automatic that it's like he is 30 years old off back to back titles. He looks healthy. Isn't looking like he's forcing it, he's playing under control. He is looking to move the ball, and hit open teammates. He's a little slow on man to man defense, he'll never be elite on Def like he was in 2008 again, but I think he'll get better with some games under his legs (He will still play Centerfield on Defense though ). Healthy Kobe is still Top 2 SGs in the league. We'll have to see how well he elevates, if he can still throw it down occasionally, I put him over Harden in a second. He's not human. Also something Ska will love, he looks like a leader even more than he was becoming over the last few years. He talks guys up, he is being vocal in the huddle, he is giving pointers, mentoring young guys, and coming off the bench to meet teammates.
