Lakers Defense is underrated!!!

[scanry]

Great game BTW, but i noticed how underrated their defense is.:wow:wow:wow

They get crucial stops at the right time.

The Spurs can beat the Lakers if they guard the paint in the playoffs.


Also Duncan is going through a serious slump (one of the very few i've seen him do in his career)..

It's a good defense, 6th or 7th best in the league.

Not lockdown like the Cavs/Celtics, but it doesn't have to be since they have the best offense.

hell yea they are underrated they shut us down good in the 2nd half.

Eh, i think we could have won had Ron and Shane not had their worst games of the season.

i wouldn't call it underrated just inconsistent.. they show flashes of top notch Defense but dont come out and do it every night.. starting of the season their D was crazy.

It's called "getting old". Not a slump, just the start of one huge decline that won't be very pretty to watch.

You may be right, but i hope for the best come playoffs.

He doesn't have the lift in his legs which he usually does at this time of the year.

Duncan needs another big man for some help in the paint.

I agree. He can only carry the team so far. He's being drained... :bang

Should be better once Bynum comes back.

Duncan's having a very good year this year.

Maybe not vintage Duncan, but still a top 2 big man.

They have a very good defense and can guard you with a variety of matchups.
