Trust me, it's not a bright side at all, since our bench player sucks more than him, if possible. :-X

Kwame is struggling to do Samaki Walker's numbers and he was supposed to be our "impact" player, Odom is not making the difference like he was supposed to do after a first disappointing season in L.A., McKie is not even playing and we signed him to make him our veteran starting PG, and the bench looks short. Only Parker is a great surprise. But me, being a Laker fan, i'm very worried about the team right now. If the team itself loose confidence i can see a lot of problems coming in the next games. Kwame can start feeling frustrate. He moved to L.A. to play like a "beast", but he's failing. Odom could move back to the PF spot. Kobe can be disappointed cause he's in his prime and he doesn't have a decent team surrounding him. I'm pessimistic. Obviously this is just a game. 1 out of 82. It's not a big deal. But with the Clippers ranking #1 in the West and with the Lakers with a negative record the media will destroy them, so the pressure will be really really high.

Like i predicted in my wildest nightmare, Lakers are in the last place of the Pacific Division, virtually out of the Playoffs. While Clippers ranks #1 in the Western Conference. I dunno if something is really changed from the past season. Maybe the record. Not the position. I'm really disappointed.

9 games into the season man, calm down...if you guys are in last at the All Star break...then you should be pissed...but wait 15-20 games  before you worry. Denver hasnt looked good....but they will be a playoff team. Detroit has looked amazing...but theyll come down to Earth a little.

damn, just now saw the score to the Detroit/Dallas game....shit! Dallas brought they ass down to Earth real fast. 37 point win?! Dallas looks prety good so far, already beat SA and Detroit. Too bad they dont ever seem to know how to win in the playoffs lol

Even if there are just 9 games played and I'm a huge Lakers fan, I start to be very pessimistic too like Antonio. I mean let's be realistic, if Kobe hasn't 30+ with a decent shoots% (between 45-50) , we haven't a chance to win against a 50%+ winning team. Phil needs to change something. I mean Odom isn't a success as a initiator of the triangle offense. I know it asks time but we haven't it. Odom needs to post up as a small forward. As a initiator, he's on the top of the arc and shoot the 3 (really bad). Our passing game is pretty weak so it's ; give the ball to Kobe and let's see. Plus I don't want to talk about Brown ....

Man i ain't crazy, trust me. And i wasn't crazy this summer. This team looks like the past season one.
