2012-13 Los Angeles Lakers Thread

"If we aren't scoring 110 to 115 points there is something wrong" - well surprise surprise there's something wrong

13 points and 8 rebounds TOTAL between Howard and Gasol? Are you kidding me? Thats a joke

Kobe was preaching how much of an O genius MD is, but he hasn't accepted the unselfishness that the system demands. He has to keep the ball moving more, he did this well the first couple of games after Brown got fired.

Darius Morris has made huge strides from last season, but he dribbles wayyyy too much everytime he touches the ball. I think it is going to be a big difference when Steve comes back obviously, Darius just doesn't know how to touch and pass it. The only times we were affective tonight was when Meeks, Duhon and Jamison were on the floor at the same time and the ball was going around the court and we were getting wide open looks. Gasol was so poor MD sat him for pretty much the entire 4th.

I can't wait for Nash to get back

Howard with 7 shots eh?

Lakers: 6-7
Magic: 5-7

Well that was interesting. I'm pretty sure Dwight hurt his back a couple games ago. I saw him get hacked and bent backwards awkwardly. I was scared when I watched him after that, but he sorta shook it off and I never heard anything about it. But then 2 games in a row with single digit points and rebounds. I know he isn't 100% and a little out of shape, but it's gotta be something else. His effort is so mechanical lately.



Again, like usual, with the f**king turnovers. It's hard to watch.

Seems like the grizz could get an offensive foul call anytime the ball went down low. I know a lot of them were legit, but it was getting kinda ridiculous.

When the hell is one of the Steve's getting back? Nash preferably, but Blake will do. Dribbles is too hyphy when he has the ball.

Must have been written by a regular poster in the Qb thread.

Headed to the game tonight baby!!!!

Not extremely confident in our chances, considering our road woes and its the 4th game in 5 nights....But I'll still be talking a lot of trash.

Dynasty is seeing one helluva game tonight!!

Yup. What a perfect time to go watch the Lakers woop some @ss. Dynasty i envy you man!

So just tuned in late. So what's the story on the turnaround today? Did benching of Pau make a difference to the team, or was it just Metta outburst in the first quarter that brought us this big lead?

Every single thing is going their way. Much like other teams have been doing to us, every shot, turnover, looseball is going our way.

Good sh*t then! Yea its looking good, even the bench guys are making shots again. Just seen Meeks penatrate the lane and go with the left hand on the lay up. He looks way better than he did to start the season. Seen Jamison on a layup as well. Things are looking positive. Now only if MDA can get the starters and backups to play consistenly on a every game basis, we can get some win streaks started.

How you like dem apples, sincal?!
