I saw that..embarassing to watch. I actually felt bad for him when that happened after the crowds reaction.

you can't say la didn't show up at least once this season after the utah match

Howard today so far is one out of 8 at the free throw line...like really man? Wtf? I will say the rest of the team looks as if they are starting to click and mesh well, and even Kobe is playing les selfish ball. But Howard HAS to do something about his free throw shooting.

Also saw this commercial earlier and thought it was pretty funny.

i don't think howard has to fix his free throw shooting-yes obviously it would make him way better, but all they really need him to do is get boards which inexplicably he hasn't been doing.

didn't catch todays game but i am actually happy for the lakers

my timberpups just lost back to back to the wizards and the bobcats, seasons over. Rondo is out for the year too so i might as well root for the lakers-them and portland

Lakers actually pulled it off today and did so in a solid performance. I would say at this point Howard is the weak link on the team. Gasol's passing was on point as well as Kobe's and of course as always Nash. Kobe had 21 points or so with 14 assists and 9 boards. But his biggest shot came with under a minute left when he hit a fade away from just under the top of the key to put them out of reach. I was really impressd with him givin up the rock though and I think it confused the thunder a lot that he did. Overall good execution and ball movement and actually did decent on the deffensive side of the ball as well.

Howard would be a nice weak link to have haha

Yeah no doubt, but I'm just thinking of how good they could be if he lived up to the expectations they had when they signed him.

Sparky · 01-27-2013, 06:44 PM

he's still working through the injury right? or was that just media empathy? Either way he can only improve(hopefully)

The weakest link for the lakers to me is the bench. I don't know who comes in and gives you a boost off that bench, it sure as hell isn't antwon jamison

watching kobe throw dimes like this is a real treat. Why didn't he think it would be a good idea to do this earlier in his career?

Why did they stop playing in the 4th. This team really annoys me. I especially hate D'antoni.
