The Lakers Thread

I can officially say that the Grizzlies will win this game because they are lucky.

But seriously, Kobe has been playing TERRIBLE...how many airballs did he shoot? 2/3? He cant make a shot if his life depends on it. This is quite embarrasing

by **Donatello** on Thu Nov 11, 2004 1:23 pm

no such thing as luck my friend. even if there were, gotta be some luck for an 110-85 score :lol:

go grizz

He has scored more than 25 points each game(not to mention the 30+ point games). This Lakers team is going to make waves in the west and it will be because of Kobe. The team is deeper than in the past and that helps.

this is so damn wrong its not even funny. to say kobe is dominating the league is just stupid. he needs to shoot alot better before you can say he is dominating. is he playing good? yeah and the only reason i say yes is cause is he getting to the line and sinking the freebies. other than that he is not really doing that good.

now as for the lakers as a team, well i think they will be better than i had originally thought. now if they do end better than i said they would then i will be quick with posting here and eating my words.

by **Donatello** on Thu Nov 11, 2004 2:10 pm

kobe dominating?????? hahahaha. man, that's funny. he's a good player. i'm not a fan- but he's very talented. but dominating? get a clue. just because you're a laker fan, or a kobe fan for that matter, doesn't mean you need to say he's dominating.

by **Fresh8** on Thu Nov 11, 2004 7:11 pm

Before Kobe can dominate every team will need to be afraid to up against him. He needs to be shooting a lot lot better and be doing everything on the court consistently.... he's not dominating yet

Today he shot so crap it wasnt funny... damn.

Next up is Houston right?

by **j.23** on Thu Nov 11, 2004 8:53 pm

kobe isn't dominating the league right now, no way in hell.. if you want domination go look at kirilenko, wade and garnett right now.. all 3 of them are eating the league up

37 points for the Lakers in the first quarter against Orlando who scored 21 :shock:

But they are screwing up now

by **J-Smoove** on Sat Nov 13, 2004 11:57 am

anyone notice that lamar odom is not playing up to his expectation?

i'm sure you do. i say he's a bust. just me..

sure he's doing everything else other than scoring, he's rebounding and playing adequte defense. but he can't score, the more important thing i'm assuming the lakers traded shaq. both trades are really benefiting to the lakers (caron butlers finally playing well again and jumaine jones is our 6th man)

by **Alcoholic** on Sat Nov 13, 2004 12:27 pm

I wouldn't call him a bust. To me a bust is a rookie who doesn't and never lives up to expectations.

It's game now. Garrity wouldn't miss, then Hill, as happy as I was to see him, made a big 3.

To me it seems Lamar Odom doesn't do good until he's fired up. He settles for 3's (which he misses), then he gets pissed and starts attacking the rim, and that's when he gets the and 1's.

DID ANYBODY SEE THAT DUNK??????????????????????????? Kobe pulled a VC on that noob Howard. But what I didn't like is how Francis shoved Kobe after the dunk. He's jealous. :lol:

You can see it in the replays.

by **J-Smoove** on Sat Nov 13, 2004 2:13 pm

grant hill played hella awesome!! fucking great news to me :-D

kobe played hearts out, but i can't believe they let up an 18 point lead! just amazing how kobe is.. but they still didn't win.

garrity (remember he and dirk got traded for TRACTA TRAYLOR! hahahaha) did surprisingly well. franchise was a beast and clutch (but none other than grant's 2 3s..)

wow did my boy turk do well.. glad he's "living up to his expectations" in florida. now WHY isn't he starting at the 2 again??

by **Old School Fool** on Sat Nov 13, 2004 9:38 pm

My friend at school, said Kobe did an Up and Under Lay-Up but Switched to a Pass and threw it to the other side for someone to jump and catch for the jam.

Is this true? Or is my friend a dumbass

by . on Sat Nov 13, 2004 11:35 pm

Tough loss for the Lakers....They had 37 points in the first quarter while being up by what..16....and they still cant get the win. DAMN!!!

Kobe did have a bad shooting night early in the game, but was able to recover it in the final quarter. Pat Garrity and Grant Hill killed the Lakers in the stretch, they could still get a win if it wasnt for those 2 players that mede big threes.

Nice dunk by Kobe, he posterized him but I cant enjoy it that much because it a fucked up loss.

by **Sauru** on Sun Nov 14, 2004 2:50 am

i gotta say kobe played well tonight. its looking like alot of people will be proven right as he might take the scoreing title this year. hopefully if he does get it he can do so on better shooting, though i think he did well last night. i just wonder. is being able to shoot whenever you want and basicly run the team while going for scoreing champ actually better than putting up with someone you dont like and getting fewer shots but going for a championship?

by . on Sun Nov 14, 2004 7:12 am

I think its more fun to eventually win championships with you as a leader then you as a sidekick

Kobe won't win a championship without a better sidekick. Lamar Odom won't get him a championship, that's for sure.

Lakers lead by 19 against the Houston Rockets, lets hope the fuckers donw screw it up again like last night. Kobe is heating up which is a good thing.

by . on Sun Nov 14, 2004 1:53 pm

Amazing isnt it...blowing a 20 point lead for 2 straight games

by **Alcoholic** on Sun Nov 14, 2004 2:13 pm

YEAH BABY!!

Lakers AND Clippers win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now if I can get around to doing my english essay my weekend will be complete!!!!!!!

Clippers had their biggest comeback win, they were down 24 and came back and won by 1 point.

by . on Sun Nov 14, 2004 2:16 pm

I REALLY dont feel happy about this win, it doesnt really feel different then a loss for me. How the hell can they get a win like that after leading by as many as 22 points? Same with the game against Orlando.

by **Alcoholic** on Sun Nov 14, 2004 2:17 pm

It's surprising, really. The only reason I watched the Clippers was because for some reason I wanted to watch them more... Lakers are just incosistent now... go up 50, lose by 100.

by **J@3** on Sun Nov 14, 2004 2:51 pm

Lakers win today, thankfully. Another blown lead and Kobe still can't shoot. Too bad Cleveland wouldn't deal LeBron for Kobe, not that I dislike Kobe but you know...

by **Fresh8** on Sun Nov 14, 2004 9:47 pm

Yay.. Lakers won...

Lamar stepped up. Kobe's been playing on a sore foot but he says it didnt affect his rhythm... hope he gets his groove back soon!

Theres not much to talk about cause its always the same with the Lakers. Anyone know when Vlade and Geroge are coming back?

by **Jackal** on Mon Nov 15, 2004 1:53 am

Meh, it's just a period. They'll pull through.

Leads are gained & lost, what matters is they managed to win.

Kobe's shooting touch is a bit rusty, he'll get back his touch in due time.
Let's not forget he's Mr. Clutch of this era.

When it counts, he'll make sure he scores.
