^i agree, but it's like peeps dont realize we havent been playin with our best pg....not saying we cant use another point guard, but peeps sayin "we need a pg bad!" because of the past couple games need to realize that we're playin without blake, who's actually been solid this year.

Constructive criticism doesn't make you less of a Lakers fan

Quote from: TheRemedy360Resurrection on January 19, 2012, 09:32:23 PMThe Lakers need a real point guard. Fisher has a knack for hitting huge shots, no doubt, but as an everyday starting point guard he's just not good. It was one thing having him in the triangle, but in Mike Brown's unstructured offense there's not really a whole lot he can do. Lakers really got screwed by that CP3 trade, not only did they not get Paul, but they lost LO, making Artest their sixth man who hasn't been good on offense since he came to LA. This post isn't even as much about this game as it is the the beginning/rest of the season. u do realize we played the last few games without steve blake, and got a rookie (darius morris) playing his minutes, right? not saying we set at point guard, but the void has been MUCH bigger without blake.

^ Those games were in LA and Denver, don't see them ever showing up to OKC, but I get it, my only objective was to discourage being a Blazer fan.

Fisher isn't a play maker and is a huge liability on defense which will hurt them a lot come playoff time especially with OKC...last time they faced Westbrook was shitting on the Lakers until they put Kobe on him, and since then he (and the whole team) have only gotten better. Ideally they'll have adjusted to the new pieces/roles which will prevent them from an early playoff collapse like last year, but at this point the Thunder have a very legitimate shot at winning the West.
Ray Allen will always be a Buck at heart..
^i thought they were more of a threat to us with Jeff Green...
