Awesome. Now my only problem is Metta, but we'll see. I love how Barnes is playing right now.

with so much offense in the starting unit we only need metta for the defense.

Metta's fine with the starters. He's basically setting picks like a PF and he hit the mid-range (does that fairy well), while Gasol is in the position of a SF on the floor ( a little closer to match his range), but he's doing a great job of it.

As far as Sessions starting, it's just a matter of finding who compliments who better. I think Sessions-Gasol will become a two man rotation off the bench while Kobe-Bynum become the other duo.

Seriously. Didn't he say just a few days ago that Blake was his guy for the rest of the season?

Kobe, Mitch and Jim told him it was time for Sessions to start, so his mind changed... :roll:

A gif of Kate Upton being hot is possibly the only thing better than news that Sessions is starting.

But i hope he still gets all of the pg minutes when Kobe is on the bench. sadly Brown is probably not that smart. If I was Brown I would take out Sessions at the 6 minute mark of the first/third and let Blake close out the quarter with Kobe. Then Put Sessions back in for the entire second/fourth where he'll play when Kobe is out and also finish out the game/half. That'll leave him with 36 minutes, and Blake with 12, and you could also play Blake as SG for when Kobe is out for a few minutes, basically having Blake and Barnes split the backup 2, as G-lock seems to be out of the rotation.

Ideal PG/SG/SF rotation, obviously should be adjusted based on matchups (more Metta minutes when playing OKC and Miami), and performance

Sessions 36/ Blake 12
Kobe 36/ Barnes 6/ Blake 6
WP 26/ Barnes 22

This way Blake still gets a good 18 minutes, but we give Sessions 36 minutes which i think would be fantastic for him. Kobe also rests the first half the fourth and second, which could be great for having him fresh for crunch time and the playoffs, and we could get away with it too if Sessions is in when Kobe isn't.

Man **** Blake. Give Ron 32 and Barnes 28. Keep his Casper ass at 12-13

He should of started when the trading session began. Why did the Lakers wait so long to get him?

He didn't come any cheaper by waiting.

He said something to the effect of "Blake may just be the starter for the remainder of the season." I remember because Minhee made a ruckus about it and I don't think I've ever seen he/she/it post before.

Metta and Kobe better be shooting well or else a zone would kill us all the way.
