Lakers are 4-1 in the new season or 1-0 in the newest season, whatever season you pick, both are good.
Let's keep this going a 5-2 road trip is a must, 6-1 would be amazing.
Go Lakers, hit the bottle extra hard tonight Laker fans, we won our first game on the road this year!!!!
Plus Jazz and Blazers play tomorrow another WIN WIN for us!
Loved, loved, LOOOVED that Kobe-mode never happened when it got close. In fact, just replaying in my mind, the plays that I can remember from Kobe that stick out when it got close are (in no order):
- BEAUTIFUL feed to Jamison underneath after the double came to him at the elbow
- turnover when he tried to whip it inside (lead to a Minny dunk that I feel Kobe could have contested more, especially since he caused the turnover... but I understand not wanting to create an and-1 situation)
- rebound putback in traffic... like 3 Wolves around him Was definitely impressed w/ this. Simple, but very impressive.
- missed shot at the elbow; defense left for a split, he shot. Good shot.
And that's pretty much all I remember from him once it got close. Hit some FTs.
He let the Steves set things up. Let Pau & Ron play a little 2-man game for a couple possessions. Seems like he has an eye for Jamison.
And I looooove ittttt.
Not to come here and complain, but it's upsetting to see how LA get's a pass. You had Jon Barry and other analyst's making excuses for you guys this season. Mentioning how you guys haven't had a real training camp with everyone, coaching change and Dwight being hurt.
You have teams like the Knicks for the last couple of years and people wondering why they couldn't get things together when they have similar problems before and it's all Hell on them
You guys have it easy, man.
If this was any other team, the media and every other outlet would destroy that team. It's absurd.
the only team that didnt get a pass is the heat.... yet people were still saying it was team chem and etc
Damn, when you put it all together like that... :\[quote name="CP"]It's pretty much killing me right now the fact that we did all this work in the offseason, had everything go our way, from Nash, to Dwight, to Jamison, to Meeks, to Hill, and this ridiculous lucky addition of Earl Clark, then sit back and watch Dirk not be healthy for the first 2.5 months, the Thunder trade Harden, the Grizz have now traded Gay, and we're a complete mess. Hell, CP3 hasn't even been on the court much lately, something brewing there. And we aren't doin **** about it.

what are you talking about ?
of course it's different. same reason why the cowboys and yankees are 'treated' different. and stop watching espn. that stuff is cancer
Dude those Knicks teams were not great. Knicks fans can be delusional (i live in NY now so i see this everyday). THey were screaming "big three" last year with amare-melo and chandler. C'mon man, thats not a big three, more like 1 and three quarter. No comparing them to a lakers team with the best sg and C in the league (before he starting sucking) with Pau and Nash as your 3rd and 4th best players. expectations were no where comparable.The Heat got a pass, but the difference is--They won.
You guys have people making excuses for the team and why they're not playing well. Most of the other teams had people calling the moves those teams made a "mistake" and how foolish they were to make those deals.
Right now, you guys have it easy--until the season is over with. I agree with you on that point.
Give me a break, dude. It's not even ESPN. EVERY SPORTING NEWS OUTLET IS MAKING THE SAME EXCUSES.
I just find it absurd that people excuses for a struggling team that basically "stacked" up the same way other "super friends" teams did, but it's OK, because they have "chemistry and injury" issues.
If you're telling me this isn't real life, then IDK what world you live in.
And for the lames who posted stupid pics of the baby crying--Really good way to continue discussion.
seriously tho antoni really needs to adjust nash minutes so he can be out there when kobe is resting. it would benefit this team more you would think if either kobe and nash were out there for most of the game. enough of bringing them both back in at the same time..
i dont care how bad meeks is shooting stop playing blake out the there at the shooting guard position...

Nobody in here made excuses for lakers other then they suck together and are dysfunctional as hell. No amount of training camp was gonna help this team - unless they did what they were doing now in completely switching it up with their gameplan.
I'd do it. Doubt that will happen, though.flip D12 for kg and paul pierce
win a ring then everyone can retire after next season
@KevinDing Dwight is said to be getting on a plane now in LA. Seems likely he will play tomorrow here in Detroit for the Lakers.

[/quote]Don't I know how I feel about this. I almost want to just say let him do what he has to do to get better for next season. Of course that plan completely backfires if he does what he needs to do for next season and then doesn't sign with us, but that's why I said I don't know what to think about this.@KevinDing Dwight is said to be getting on a plane now in LA.
