^Farmar's actually been playing pretty well..yea, he takes some ill-advised shots, but he has been playing better than Fisher...in fact, I agree with Looney on the fact that Farmar should start over Fisher. Our main problem with the bench is that once one of our starters go down (ie: Artest, Gasol), it forces Odom to start, and Odom is the leader of our second unit. Forcing Odom into that starting line-up really has our bench looking lost. Thats not to say they aren't good players, cuz the only player i truly believe is whack on our team is Sasha. He gets nervous when he dribbles, commits incredibly dumb fouls, and has no decision making skill whatsoever. Morrison, in my eyes, is way ahead of Sasha. Sasha's real strength is shooting and hes been brickin way too many good looks this year to be considered a true threat from outside...i think we should bench him and only play Morrison and Shannon off the bench at the two spot.This is what our rotation SHOULD look like (when healthy):PG Jordan Farmar...Derek FisherSG Kobe Bryant...Shannon Brown/Sasha VujacicSF Ron Artest...Luke Walton/Adam MorrisonPF Pau Gasol...Lamar Odom/Josh PowellC Andrew Bynum...DJ Mbengathats a VERY potent bench
the thing about LO is he's playing MUCH better with the starting unit ... and the Lakers as a team are much better with a the combo of Pau/LO than with Pau/Drew aswell
Looks like Gasol will play tomorrow.
LO is so whack off the bench, he should just start at PG in place of Fisher
Quote from: NIKCC on January 18, 2010, 04:36:17 PMLO is so whack off the bench, he should just start at PG in place of Fisherwhat If aaron Brooks is on the floor, there's gonna be match up problems assuming lobes guarding him, he's to quick but than again fisher doesn't do any better
next year i think this line up and bench can be possibleC - Bynum\Shaq\MbengaPF - Gasol\Odom\PowellSF - Artest\McGrady\WaltonSG - Kobe\Brown\VujacicPG - Fisher\Farmar\VujacicShaq and mc grady sign up for the vets min for a ring run that would be sick, our bench would get a major upgrade and vets min doesnt count up to the salary cap.if it were to happen id assume theyd drop mbenga or powell and
Bench Mob? are you a retard or something?our bench fucking sucks besides Odomanyone who watches the Lakers knows we smash on teams and then the 2nd unit (the bench) comes in and gets pushed aroundtherefore the momentum always shifts when Walton, Farmar, lame ass Sasha etc. come inthey only play good in blowoutsand yea... the Lakers are gonna get Shaq next year.... do you even watch basketball? you sound like an idiot
I don't get why Bynum isn't playing more..it seems like everything falls apart when he comes out and Odom in.
