Hey, sorry if this has been discussed before... but what do you guys think about Kobe and Sasha playing more minutes together? They did this a lot last year. Because Kobe commanded double-teams and help defense to rotate, Sasha got great open looks from the corner and wings.
Some say that Sasha just isn't shooting the way he did last season, which is true if you look at his actual 3-pt percentage. But IMO he also isn't getting the same high quality looks that he did just a season ago. I could even see him playing big minutes with Kobe, DFish, Pau and LO.
Now that AB17 is out for at least a couple of months, we need to kind of adjust our strategy a bit. What do you guys think?
GO LAKERS!!!

Re: Kobe and Sasha?
i've seen it mentioned on here (especially during the Bobcats game when kobe fouled out) that Sasha is most effective when he plays with Kobe

Re: Kobe and Sasha?
Yes, we need more classic Sasha for a new machine video. Hopefully that will be a good thing such as breaking the 3pt made in a game record.

Re: Kobe and Sasha?
Why isnt Sasha in the 3 point contest. Is there a catch and shoot 3 point contest anywhere???
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!
