2011-12 Los Angeles Lakers Thread

Isaiah Thomas, Jason Thompson, and Outlaw for Pau

Well. My 5 year old is a lakers fan. A few weeks ago, he was presented with a selection of nba team matching shorts and t shirts. The color he liked was Lakers purple and gold. But he just didn't select it for the color, he had to ask me and make sure it was Lakers.

As much as I wanted to say no and talk bad about the Lakers, I kept it in and bought him the outfit.


I laughed when he got sad when the Lakers went fishing. Then he got more sad because I laughed. I felt bad and the only thing I could say to cheer him up was the truth: lakers have won so many championships and they have Kobe Bryant, the best player in the world.

That cheered him up but I still had to remind him that I don't like the Lakers.

Kyle Lowry believes he and Kevin McHale can no longer coexist.

Lowry underwent surgery to repair a sports hernia and torn abductor muscles three weeks ago and briefly returned to the Toyota Center on Friday.

"I don't think so," Lowry said about whether he and McHale can continue. "I honestly think it would be tough. Things have to be addressed. The situation would have to be addressed."

"If things aren't addressed coaching-wise, I guess I have to be moved."

McHale believed he worked well with Lowry.

"That's very surprising," McHale said. "I didn't think we had too much of a problem coexisting this year. Everybody has a little beef every once in a while. I didn't feel like (there were problems). He apparently did.

"There were times that we didn't agree on things. There were times that I got on him. I don't think it was unduly harsh on anybody."

Daryl Morey believes the relationship can be salvaged.

"I think Kyle and coach McHale are both winners and both competitive guys," Morey said. "I don't anticipate any issues going forward."

Pau for Lowry revisited?

Pau isnt enough anymore I dont think.

I actually think at this point, it'd be Pau for Lowry and Luis Scola...and I think that would be fine for both parties...I'm standing strong to my opinion that Pau will be shipped to Indiana, Houston, or Philadelphia this summer

lulz, the rockets would get ripped off BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lowry is one of the better point guards in the league and Scola is a pretty good player himself.
