Historically, Lamar sucks as a 2nd option.. He has played great recently however...

its irrelevant to a discussion as to why they beat the jazz/mavs and lost to the grizzlies/bobcats. its been all about defense. has nothing to do with lamar being the 2nd option.

That's what I don't get. You beat good teams without them but can't beat bad teams?

It should be the other way around.



You should watch the games and not on the boxscores...you would be less confused......

I have and the reason they win or lose is because of bench play.

first you have no idea why they beat the jazz/mavs on the road and lost to the bobcats/grizz but then you recognize its bench play. they're bench players because they are inconsistent, especially when asked to do a lot more than they should be. ronny should barely be getting off the bench, sasha and farmar are being asked to carry some of the offensive load, dj mbenga is being given consistent minutes after being out of the league for half the yr. luke and vlad are being asked to defend super athletic sf's.

I can't see the Lakers beating the Suns or any other serious contender this year . I just don't think they'll get healthy enough .

No, but that the lakers will be held back by injuries this year. A team always gets screwed every year...

Lol calm the **** down. I'm predicting the lakers won't be at full strength for the playoffs. Argue all you want, I really couldn't care less.
