[:: LAKERS 2014 THREAD | POLL: Who Should Coach Next Year? ::]

[vindeezy]

Im gonna give pringles, yes, mike d'antoni credit.

Already multiple back2backs.....tough schedule up to now. Yes, he has these guys playing hard. I know, alot of these guys r on 1 yr deals.....still, u could easily fold in close gms late without ur closer (still believe we coulda beat SA and the Pelicans with KB)...but theyre buyin in. 19 down, 63 to go.

Oh, yeah....kudos to kurt rambis and the other assistants, whom im sure have SOME influence on this group defensively.

 

[vindeezy]

I stand corrected about Wes Johnson. It's crazy how he has found his calling in being a defensive stopper through D'Antoni hahaha
It's down right funky when you think about it lol

Laker fans have been asking for a "3 and D" SF..they got one....at the vets min....I told yall from the jump. Wes> mwp.and swaggy p>> jamison

Yup people forget that Rambis ran the D on our latest championship runs

like I said before, this team is super fun to watch... they lost it a little there because Pau decided to be a little ***ch again... but we have too many guys on this team that dont quit....

reasons we won tonight

1) steve blake has done an exceptional job and PG
2) jordan hill's effort awesome
3) wes johnson has the ugliest rotation on his shot but his defense is sick
4) awesome defense in the fourth by the team
5) timely three's
6) cousins is an idiot


pau still sucks.

 

[nermindee]

I like what dantoni said about sunday when kobe returns... this team better not be ball watching and thinking kobe is the answer to everything.

Good game yall   and good luck with the playoff hunt!

Good luck with the lottery balls again for what 7 years in a row now

 

[numba24]

This team never knows when it is beat. Multiple come backs already this year. Even against Portland we made a fight it pulling back a deficit. Lots of other teams would have got smashed like utah did tonight. 

 

[numba24]

And the Kings were meant to have turned a corner this year. Yea, right into a dead end, they need to rebuild....... again.

 

[numba24]

Wes Johnson was one mans garbage in minnesota and phx and now our treasure in LA. He's playing so well right now. 

 

[vindeezy]

The kings have a nice, young nucleus.

Boogie, mclemore, thomas, d.williams...vets like salmons, vazquez, etc......theyll compete all yr as well.

Its gonna be a dog fight....

IMHO....and pls, bare with me....the nba has more parity this yr than in the past few yrs. Pls listen to me when I say this...yes, there are a handful of elite tms....but that next tier of tms.....theres prolly like 10-15 tms clumped into that same tier....its gonna come down to health, execution and a lil luck...dead SRS.

Then there's the rest of the East excluding the top 2 lol

^^sad, but true...didnt wanna specify...thatd rustle jimmies. All about consistency. If u play .550 ball from here on out..u have a shot.

 

[vindeezy]

^Not at a title, but a playoff spot.

 

[goldmember]

Can Wes Johnson win the DPOY if he keep this up?

 

[sb]

any chance the lakers go after asik

 

[vindeezy]

Doubt it....doesnt get natL pub/not enough burn, etc.....however...if swaggy continues to produce, he and j.cross are rt there for 6th man...jr swish should also be a factor.

 

[kvsm23vs24]

Team is dope. I use to love Pau, but jeez really hard to defend my dude

We gonna trade him watch

 

[sea manup]

trade pau for the next pau, bring kobe back and make a championship run 

srs but not srs 

go lakers!

 

[yeezusdisciple]

We have so many good trading pieces

 

[goldmember]

We are one solid PF/C away to another trip to the finals





Semi-srs

I swear I'm gonna miss nick young when kobe has him buried on the bench. Dude has been my favorite player other than kobe. I hope my dude kb plays with the flow of the team and we keep our chemistry. I'm loving what this team is doing. The energy, the determination, the first...Yall know kb won't play much D when he gets back. Pretty much all of our guys besides pau soft *** plays D so kb will def have to make some clutch moments again on the defensive end. I love the teamwork and unselfishness. Kobe needs the ball alot. I wish we could just have a great free flowing team that just happens to have a legend on it. Whatever works to get us back in championship contention. I miss the parades. And the tshirts.

 

[freshkrn]

i really hope kobe doesnt mess up the chemistry... im literally smiling while watching this new laker team because they play with alot of heart and passion

 

[vindeezy]

I still think we need farmar back to at least get semi excited. We need to go 10 deep every gm and yes....I agree..we are one big 6'10 bruiser short.

One has to think. If that child accepted the chandler role and been healthy with this bunch. But u can get that from andray blatche at half the price (by no means is blatche that child or vice versa...blatche is simply the same size and prolly would hypothetically moreso accept the chandler role? If at all, than the afformentioned child).

Only need to play .450 ball in the East. I'm just loving seeing Knicks and Nets fail so bad right now. Raptors to win the Atlantic haha. If I'd said that before the season I would have been shot down so hard. 

 

[yeezusdisciple]

Who u think we can get by trade deadline? That will make is contenders. Its a perfect year in my opinion because miami is tired wade js done
