Pau Gasol getting the night off, so what a depleted frontcourt.

I don't have a problem with this since its pre-season, they will get these plays going like a walk in the park once they gel.

offense looks good. sacre is getting the ball in good spots, too bad he can't do much with it. it'll be different with pau/howard there. system looks good though, can't expect more.

Lakers will be better at finishing around the rim with Howard there. A lot of easy misses by Kobe, Jamison, and Pau during the first three preseason games on nice passes from Nash.

Well this Steve Nash ran offense looks absolutely horrible right now, no wonder he was never able to win. Ok in all seriousness, he is making some very stupid passes right now trying to go for the homerun play. Can't wait to see when this Princeton offense is going to be ran efficiently because as of right now this offense looks worst than the crap we had last year smh. This is not an overreacted message because I understand it is still preseason, however I do expect things to be a lit more fluid then what I am seeing right now.
