Kind of hilarious to watch the last five minutes of the game tonight, seeing Kobe give a big "fukk you" to his coach and the Princeton offense and just drive every possession, including a nasty dunk.

[pinnacle420]

penetrate the Princeton offense, they have two options to be successful.
1) Kobe gets ball with 8 seconds on the shot clock and does his thing. If he scores great, if not Dwight gets the board, rinse and repeat.
2) Nash controls offense and distributes ball as he sees fit, if Kobe wants to get open, he gets the ball. Someone shoots, if they miss, Dwight gets board, rinse and repeat.
I prefer option 2, but either could be effective.

One day we'll look back and actually appreciate what LeBron did in Cleveland despite Mike Brown. At this point the Lakers better figure out how to keep Dwight here and keep Jimmy Buss off the yay and dark black hookers.

[JMobile]

Don Mattingly is coaching the Lakers too?

[rm18]

Antawn Jamison= loser

[Goat Milk]

Just not a good team.

[paranoyd androyd]

horrible coaching

horrible chemistry
slow
old

[tony_come]

Every hard to play with Kobe

[Lakers714]

Give them time, they'll be fine. Jesus, it's only been 5 games of an 82 game season.

[kenshin11x]

Dwight Howard has a freakish body but doesn't fully know how to use it. Too Mechanical. Too overhyped. Skip Bayless is right that a healthy Bynum is better. Nash is too old. The Bench sucks. Faded them every game and so far only lost pistons. Will continue to fade, but not against bum teams (pistons)

[Lakers714]

Omg, Dwight Howard is overhyped??? He's a defensive beast. Him and Bynum r two different types of players. Having followed the Lakers for a long time and living locally, I've always felt something off with Bynum. He never had or will have the intensity Dwight has. Yes, Bynum's offensive game is much more advanced than Dwight's, but Dwight just has the defensive presence Bynum will never have. Coming off of back surgery, Dwight isn't fully 100% yet. He wasn't even supposed to be on the court until December. It's hard watching them stumble out of the gate but I'm still going to be patient with this team. I know it's cliche but its going to take time and they're a work in process. And no shit Nash is old, doesn't mean he's still not a good PG. they will soon figure out a way to utilize Gasol, the most versatile PF in the game, properly with Dwight, Kobe and Nash. Yes, I agree, fade them till they put it together but they will be a force soon.

Looks like the Miami Heat could win the Championship again. Was looking forward to a Lakers vs Heat championship games.

[Seaweed]

[kenshin11x]

Going to be Clippers vs Heat.

[RonPaul2008]

If I were the Lakers I would beg Phil Jackson to coach the team again.

The Heat will have their hands full with a healthy Bulls team in the Playoffs.

[kobstopa]

every teams will gun for them, think about that

[konck]

Cuban put together a bunch of misfits they play better than these over paid losers

[konck]

[Ratzz]

it has been coming for a long time..

Lakers will miss the playoffs or out in first round, as an 8-seed

[tatommack]

And just think how much money it cost lol

[CHAZ]

Jesus.... Its barely been two weeks. Did everyone expect them to instantly mesh? They have the players, but just not the team. The chemistry will take time. Just wait

[Big Bear]

too many chiefs and not enough Indians
