let me get the straight, you used to be a laker fan but cause of kobe you stopped?  i'm glad you came to that conclusion. its all about the name on the front not the back anyways

- correct. well, actually to be a bit more technical i stopped because i couldnt bare to watch what i knew was going to happen to the team and to see management sit back and let it happen. i seen the blowup coming years before it was even talked about in the media.
 
- as a fan i cringed everytime 'the kid' would lose the ball into out of bounds trying to be on some 'i got dis' steez. then jogging back with the 'my bad.....my bad' look on his face. why? because it was unchecked. Del Harris was terrified of 'the kid'. and couldnt bring himself to bench him over his antics. i knew then it wasnt going to last long. and i knew a championship would only make it worse giving 'the kid' the impression he was doing no wrong. Phil brought a little balance and toned him down a bit, but it was too late.
 
 
....the funny thing is JR Smith, as hated as he is on here plays EXACTLY like Frobe used to (bball IQ and attitude wise)........he gets clowned for it on here though.

JR Smith

JR m'f-ing Smith

You just made JR's day with that one.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, marks the only time Smith and Bryant were in the same sentence together as a comparison to each other, except for that one time someone said 'Kobe Bryant is miles ahead of JR Smith.'

  c'mon ska, there's a reason i specifically pointed out bball IQ and attitude. the same bone head plays and half court pull up shots JR tries to pull Frobe used to try the same BS. the same 'im the man' attitude JR has today Frobe had then.
 
....dont try and make it seem like i said they are the exactly the same,[mark jackson] you better than that.[/ mark jackson]

That was a terrible comparison though. Kobe didn't make bone head plays like JR Smith . I think you're mistaking ISO plays with bone headed plays or you just hate the dude because he had so much swag back then

Nah, bro, I can't ride with you on this one. Frobe was boneheaded by being young and immature, being short-sighted of the greater possibility that could have been; JR is boneheaded by being dumb, stupid, and ignorant to how the game of basketball is played.

Even their attitude isn't the same. Frobe was arrogant in an introverted sense; JR is arrogant in a very outward sense.

.....yeah because JR Smith would TOTALLY pay someone to say he makes bonehead plays and has low bball IQ.
 
 

 

[darthska]

I... could really see him doing that, inadvertently, on some "Yeah, exactl... wait, what?" type steez.

 

[xsalvioutlawx]

You took it way too far once you mentioned JR Smith. You said he plays "EXACTLY" like Frobe...

No..Just no.

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

I guess Frobe used to pull that kind of move off then too huh?

 

[darthska]

Lakers' Bynum won't miss a step in playoffs

Posted Apr 15 2011 7:55PM

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) -- Lakers center Andrew Bynum claims his troublesome right knee will be no trouble at all when the Los Angeles Lakers open the playoffs Sunday.

Bynum participated in a full practice with the Lakers on Friday, just three days after hyperextending the knee during their home finale against San Antonio. The Lakers feared disaster, given their shot-blocking defensive specialist's history of knee problems, but Bynum merely bruised a bone in his knee.

"I'm fine," Bynum said. "It's nothing that's not normal for me at this point."

Bynum believes he'll be back to normal when second-seeded Los Angeles hosts the Hornets in the first-round opener Sunday, even while acknowledging "my normal is a little bit skewed."

Coach Phil Jackson isn't quite so optimistic, saying he'll see how Bynum reacts from Friday's practice on Saturday before guessing how effective he'll be against New Orleans.

"Actually, I was a little concerned," Jackson said. "He started out practice and felt like the knee was a little loose, a little different, but he proceeded and played fine."

Bynum averaged 11.5 points, 9.5 rebounds and nearly 2 blocked shots in 54 games, missing the first 24 after offseason surgery to repair a torn meniscus. He was hurt against the Spurs when he tumbled to the floor after stepping on DeJuan Blair's foot.

The pain initially frightened Bynum before he realized he could walk with little discomfort. He has experience with bone bruises after sitting out a game in February with a bruise in his left knee.

"It's the same thing," Bynum said. "It just hurts for a little while, and then it goes away."

Bynum's health could be among the Lakers' greatest assets or their biggest liabilities. He missed the 2008 NBA finals after injuring his kneecap, and Los Angeles lost to Boston that season before winning the past two finals with Bynum in the lineup.

Bynum and fellow 7-footer Pau Gasol are the Lakers' biggest advantages against undersized teams similar to the Hornets, who couldn't handle Los Angeles' size while losing all four regular-season meetings.

Bynum had fluid drained from his knee at least twice during last season's playoff run before surgery. He has fluid on his knee again this year, but not an excessive amount, and he credits the brace on his knee with preserving his health for much of the season.

Forwards Ron Artest and Matt Barnes also skipped Friday's practice. Jackson said Artest hyperextended his knee this week without revealing which knee is injured, while Barnes missed the Lakers' last two games to rest his surgically repaired right knee.

Both forwards are probable to play Sunday, Jackson said.

Kobe Bryant also sat out practice Friday, but that's normal procedure to keep Bryant fresh for games. The superstar is feeling confident about the Lakers' overall health as they attempt to make another lengthy playoff run to their fourth straight NBA finals.

"Andrew's feeling good, Matt's feeling good," Bryant said. "We've got to get our little sick boy back, and we should be fine."

That would be backup point guard Steve Blake, who's unlikely to recover from his bout of chicken pox in time for the series opener, possibly hurting the Lakers' defense against New Orleans star Chris Paul. Jackson visited Blake's home Thursday to drop off video of the Hornets.

"He looks very speckled," Jackson said of Blake. "He's got a lot of poxes on him. He says he's getting better. We hope his recovery is rapid."


I actually wouldnt mind if Bynum took the first few games off so he can fully rest that knee. I mean, his defensive presence isnt exactly necessary to win this series.
