    P Swayze is right. We need to have Nash run a more uptempo offense with the second unit and Dwight while Kobe is out of the game. We can't completely abandon our half court offense that we've been running for 13 years. We're not gonna be the Clippers or the Heat. We gotta mix it up. And when Nash is in the half court we need more pick and rolls, high-low action, etc..

    I don't know what to say about the defense. There's no excuse for giving up that many points with 3 first team defensive players on the court.

    If the lakers aren't going to play the way I thought they would, I'm disowning all my preseason predictions for them...


    Hoyt voice from training day: I didn't sign up for this.




    Their offense needs to be: 50% Nash run offense like he did in phoenix, 30% dwight do what he did in orlando, 15% Kobe iso and 5% whatever else...

    I understand Nash didn't play but still.. they suck

    ? predictions. Games have to be played first. Like I said in August, staying health is very important for this team to succeed.

    Outside of Kobe, Gasol, and MWP, the starting 5 have never played together before. No excuses tho. They should definitely be playing better than how they are right now. Mike Brown cant coach for ? . It's still fire Mike Brown no matter what.

    But I'm interested to see what type of production we get from guys like Darius Morris, Jodie Meeks and Earl Clark.

    nope also the lakers should think about playing Zone defense probably 3-2 because they can not guard anybody on the perimeter . Their offense has been decent . They have been free throws and turning the ball over a lot . If they fix those things . They will actually do something.

    No need to panic yet...Sure we are 0-3 and it looks bad but we all know damn well this team is not in game shape, once everyone is healthy and has a few games under their belt we will be okay. This Princeton offense is a pain to watch though

    and no Kobe is not the one who insisted on the Princeton set he has been lobbying for the triangle that is why you do see some implementation of the triangle in their which looks awful imo.

    So from what Im seeing our core team is good but once again out bench aint ? .

    Maybe we should draft some decent bench players next season. Or before the trade deadline.

    bench shouldnt even be a real bench u should have 2 starters at all time.....nash and dwight for bench squad, pau and kobe to finish first qtr...second half same thing....then all bench after building a nice lead thru 3 qtrs for beginning of 4th then at 7 or 6 min mark bring in starters and put dagger in the coffin.
