did u watch the game? haha…funny bcuz he did pass the ball to drew and drew just blew really easy shots…and as for kobe going 12 for 30…had he made 3 of his shots everyone would have called it an efficient night..shots werent falling for him, thats all…and when he passed the ball, no one took the initiative to find a good shot..the whole team terribly…i cant point a finger on this one..but here’s my take on it…not kobe but, drew needs to step it up…sure defensively he did well..but 9 pts while kwame gets 10? please

It’s one regular season game. Phil knows we will finish first in the West. He leaves the players out to toughen them mentally for the playoffs.

[Comment ID #54684 Will Be Quoted Here]that is a good idea, our bench would be a great fast break team with two great rebounders in L.o. and drew and three quicksters in J-Farm the machine and the postermaker

Phil Jackson acknowledged after the game that Kwame Brown outplayed Bynum. That was certainly true. Andrew still hasn’t regained the form that he showed us last season. And whoever above said the Lakers lost because of fatigue is the dumbest, lamest excuse I’ve ever heard. If that was truly the case, the Lakers will not win the championship because that would clearly be mental weakness. Give credit to the Pistons last night…they played with more energy, more resolve, and physical toughness. Lakers still have a tendency as a team to play dumb, settle for one-on-one poor play, become lax on defense. Phil should know by now that he can’t rely on his team to “figure things out” when the game gets tough. Don’t be fooled by the Lakers 7-1 start…they still have ALOT to improve.

i say josh powell needs to get involved

maybe have him start and play the first 4-6 minutes of the game then he can spend the majority of the time on the bench. have him start at PF and move gasol to C

we need more energy in the starting lineup which josh powell says he brings

we need to get ALL of our players involved

I thought Kobe really hurt the team today. He’s usually good at reading what the defense gives to him, but for some reason he decided to clank difficult shot after difficult shot instead of trying to move the ball and score within the flow of the offense. His stat line is gravely misleading (29/5/6, seemingly an excellent game) and I hope he plays a LOT better against the Bulls.

yes! someone needs to tell Kobe to take smarter shots and to pass the ball to Drew when he’s completely open.I am actually begining to think that the team performs alot better when he’s not on the floor.I know a lot of people are going to disagree with me, but aside from the bad shooting from Rad and Fish i credit this loss to Kobe’s stupid decision making…
