to be fair, the Blazers were missing Roy, and also have had to use Juwan Howard at center w/ Oden and Przybilla gone for the season.

what happened to Bynum?

[Teddy Roosevelt]

Bruised hip.

just proof to how NOT really alone Kobe is.

just proof to how LeBron James > Kobe Bryant.

i've been saying since year one how he's always had a squad around him & the one year he didn't they finished like .500.

I would say more with the Lakers that the team was definitely built on draft picks. You gotta remember that they were bounced out of the playoffs a couple years ago by Phoenix back to back and that squad had alot of the same players it has now, excluding Gasol of course. I just think over time they have learned to play their position more and look to compliment Kobe's game rather than out do it. But yeah LB has been doing it with alot less, but the cast is getting better

the Lakers without LeBron or Kobe could win 60 games.

lol kobe playing with all these injuries make bynum and gasol look like weenies



lol "bruised hip" "Hamstring" lol unless you pull your hamstring to the point you cant walk its all good.

No discrespect to Kobe cuz he IS the number 2 best player in the game, but the Lakers are killing it without him.   

Gasol and Odom are BEASTING, they must love actually getting the ball.   If anything, Kobe being out will make the Lakers a better team in the long run, which is bad news for the rest of the league...the Lakers are DEEP, their is no team that is even close
