Stuff still coming out, might be more soon.
Kobe Bryant slipped a black backpack across his shoulders and left Quicken Loans Arena without talking about what had just happened.
After losing to the lowly Cleveland Cavaliers, nothing needed to be said.
The Lakers hit the All-Star break broken.
..."It's a painful, painful loss," said Pau Gasol, who had 30 points and 20 rebounds. "It's very disappointing. I don't understand it."
...After his club's worst loss this season, coach Phil Jackson didn't tell his players anything other than what time they're due to report for practice Monday.
"I think they took the break before the game started," he said.
..."It's back to the drawing board," said Lamar Odom, who was asked what's at the top of the team's to-do list. "Defense. Cohesiveness. Our chemistry on offense. I'm not that worried. I think it's things we can fix."
...Odom believes the Lakers coast against lesser teams.
"That's our problem overall," Odom said. "We take teams lightly at times. We play the cat-and-mouse game. Sometimes the cat loses."
..."The only time you should be beating somebody by 50 points is on a video game," said forward Antawn Jamison. "That night it felt like we were in one. It shows you when we focus for 48 minutes what we're capable of doing. The biggest question is how do we be consistent doing that."
..."We had a lot of turnovers that really hurt us," Jackson said. "We didn't play a good road game at all."
