The Official Los Angeles Lakers thread
Citizen-Y:
Laker fans complaining about officiating. lol
Stone Cold is Bout It, Bout It:
Kobe is no doubt the best player in the NBA but b/c of his little situation he went through a couple of years ago he's not allowed to be the face of the NBA thats reserved for the lebron's and the wade's (pretty boys that don't work for their recognition).
Before the cavs game kobe went to the line 13 times in 4 games, And then yesturday he got fucked again, , Hubie Brown & Mike Been kept on saying "Kobe got fouled,kobe got fouled" every single play.It was a fucking joke. They did a great job exposing those dirty refs. Kobe SHOULD get 15 Free throw attempts tonight.
BTW,there's only 14 games left in the season and 10 of the games are at staples center,This is the Lakers last chance to go on a winning streek they just have to focus. "c'mon Lakers you could do it,we're almost in the playoffs" :rock:

I do agree. Bryant > Wade / James, imo. But i don't hate on them. They are the future of the NBA.

I missed yesterday's game since I was at work but I'm glad I did. I probably would have hurled myself out of my living room window.
Of the games I've seen, there are some trends that I see that I don't like and need to be addressed ASAP.
First off is Kobe's shot selection. He's reverted back to his early season 10/30 awful shooting binge. Chill with the 3 pointers. I can't handle this dribble the ball for 10 seconds then hurl up a 3 while double teamed. It's sickening to watch. Bad offense = bad defense and when you brick 3's, that leads to transition offense for their opponents. Kobe is not the only one, all of the Lakers really need to chill with the 3 pointers.
Both Smush and Kobe gamble way too much on defense, trying to get steals. Yeah you get the steal every now and then but the other 9 times your man will beat you and be open for a drive or a J. Stop gambling and stick with your man.
In the 4th quarter of games, the Lakers defer to Kobe way too much, even making him bring the ball up on offense. This should not happen. Just because it's the 4th does not mean changing the game plan. No wonder Kobe is so tired lately. Smush and Lamar need to maintain offensive aggressiveness in the 4th quarter.
Our other problems are out of our hands due to injuries. Like it or not, Chris Mihm is our 3rd best player and if we lose either Kobe, Lamar, Chris or Smush, the team takes a huge hit. That's just how it is.
I like Lamar Odom's agressiveness offensively. He's been playing well since the all-star break and he's been playing like a man possessed the last 3 weeks. Luke Walton's play has improved also. Maybe he's not the useless scrub I thought he was.
Also, I hate to admit it, Bynum is seriously overrated by some of you guys. I haven't seen any indication that Bynum will be anything special other than just another Michael Olowakandi. To say you wouldn't trade him in a package for KG is baffling. You saw flashes of brilliance out of KG, Dwight Howard and Amare Stoudamire when they came out of high school. I haven't seen that out of Bynum. I hope I'm wrong and you guys are right.
