Last night's game, you can really see how important Odom is to this team. Kobe's our best player but Odom has been our MVP. We had zero rebounding last night and Odom is the only one that can guard Dirk due to his length and foot speed. Despite shaky play on both ends of the floor, we were almost in it, until the Lakers went on another jump shooting binge at the end of the fourth and forgot the inside game. If we had focused on the inside game more, we probably could have won this game.Am I the only one frustrated with Sasha? He has given us nothing. He can't shoot, dribble, pass, make layups, nor guard anyone. He has been completely useless this season so far. When he goes in I just cringe. Was Sasha always this bad? Did anyone ever see him play in Europe? What's going on with him?

What's going on with him?I agree...He's playing REALLY shitty right now. But he must have SOMETHING in his bag. we didn't sign him to a contract extension this summer because we had extra roster spots or extra cash, you know? I think he simply has no confidence, especially with Farmar and Smush playing ahead of him...It's like he feels as if he's playing for his life every game...I saw him in the pre-season, and he looked really solid, nothing like what he's shown us this past month or so. Who knows if he'll ever step out of it, maybe it's just in his personality to be so shakey, but I know he isn't nearly as terrible as he's been playing...PeACe

He did great in the preseason, he outplayed Evans IMO in the preseason, then the regular season starts and he goes back to being useless while Evans turns into a stud. I don't get it. Maybe he needs a shrink or something.
^yeah the Lakers don't need A.I., we already have THE best scorer in the game. Iverson would be a great pick up for somebody like Boston or Indiana.

They probably could get him for Livingston and Kaman. I would do it if I was the Clippers. For us to get him, we'd have to give up Odom, no way that happens.
broke back McGrady
Wow this was the game of the season so far. Anybody still wanna say Kobe isn't the best or isn't a leader?Fuck Kwame Brown for missin those 2 layups that could've got Kobe the triple-double!
