Total nonsense.
A big problem with Bynum is that once he gets the ball in the post his teammates know the chances are slim to none it's getting passed back out. IMO that's got a lot to do with Bynum worrying that he'll have to sit there and watch Fisher jack up threes if he passes out. There needs to be a collective effort from that entire team to make the extra pass. Either way I'm by no means a Kobe fan but blaming him is re ed.
Total nonsense.
Yeah, of course Bynum is trash. He was ONLY helping the Lakers to a #1 Western Conference record averaging 20 and 10 BEFORE Gasol was traded to the Lakers and WHEN Gasol was injured early this season.
And I could understand why Bynum is doing that. He's much more effecive on both ends when he scores. A player's confidence level raises when they score. Simple as that. Why use Bynum exclusively on defense (As some Kobe fans attests) when he can also give you points down low at a 55% shooting rate?
That's not what he said.
Obviously Kobe would rather win the championship than the scoring le, but I think he really wants to win both.
This is Kobe we're talking about, he's ultra compe ive, he's not conformed with winning, he has to dominate and show he's the best. I don't think is so delusional to think that Kobe wants to win the championship and the scoring le to show that he is the best right now and maybe even start a serious MJ/Kobe debate (even though this has already been started by dumb Lakers fans)
In LA, no one's smells good or edible unless its coming from Kobe.
tee,hee...
someone ing gets it!!!
many reasons, to name a few:
- Andrew "glass" Bydumb
- Lamar "never know what you gonna get" Odom
- Ron "el loco" Artest
- Derek "the corpse" Fisher
- LMAO @ their bench
-
wow..other than ron..same reasons the won the championship last year.![]()
How about the Celtics beign healthy?
Chances of them staying healthy looking more and more slim.....Not our fault they are too old![]()
Per 36 minute...this year, Kobe has shot 21.7 per game. Last year, per 36 minutes, Kobe has shot 20.8. Thats just about .9 shots per game more than last year. Lets not forget he's also shot only .3 more fts. That I'd say, give or take...is just about one more possession for the "ball hog".
hey Kori
I know this might be annoying to you, but if you could be kind enough to comply anyway :P
Is ChrisRichards my account, or used by me at all?
thanks. I ask only because I am being blamed for owning that account 'ChrisRichards' as a troll account.
So, thanks for reading, if you comply or not, thanks anyway.

Nice try ChrisRichards
thats pretty sad
the amount of shots Kobe takes is completely irrelevant IMO..Kobe's "ball-hogging" has always been really overplayed and I hate when my fellow haters use it as an argument..the only instance where Kobe's ball-hogging did major damage was the 2004 Finals, but I hate when people bring up his "ball-hogging" any time post-Shaq..
the Lakers have some obvious flaws that will have to be corrected..
-spacing issues..they have 2 guys that clog the paint..they have no 3-point shooting this year..Kobe's 3-point shot has been completely off, which has led to more Kobe in the post..this has hurt the Lakers spacing in a huge way, and it's been part of the reason for their struggles..
-lack of depth..obvious problem..their bench is average at best..they never know what they're going to get from their bench, even Odom..if it was me, I'd move Bynum to the bench and have Odom play with the starters..it would help their spacing and their bench play since Bynum can be a #1 option there IMO..
they have some other minor flaws, but those are the 2 main flaws that can hurt them..
every other "elite" team has had some noticeable flaws as well though, so I'd say the Lakers are still the favorites to win it all, maybe 2nd to Boston..
Kori if you're going to ban Culburn the least you can do is ban the ChrisRichards and MiamiHeat trolls.
They provide NOTHING of value to this forum. Constant Kobe and Laker bashing. It's rather annoying. If we are doing some house cleaning before the New Year then these two clowns should be at the top of the list.
Garbage. This isn't LakersGround, if you don't like what I have to say about your fake ass superstar, then learn to deal with opposing opinions.
As for ChrisRichards, he's a laker fan just like you, who trolls and spams the board trying to imitate people who bash kobe bryant.
You lakerfans are a disease. Control yourself instead of trying to spread your garbage to everyone else.
some rude comments from House..what a hater..
You lost all credibility with these two statements.
He's not concerned with credibility. He's faking his kobe hate. he's a troll for a laker fan. Which one? i don't know
1. They are truly not that good /deep as many think, and they had a playoff run that was marginal helped by injuries to key teams they faced or would have barring injuries (i.e. Celtics, Spurs) and have had a soft schedule so far.
2. Bynum overhyped and a 40 year old or so Fisher won't save their #$% again.
3. Still a soft team except one thug named Artest ready to explode at any time.
I'm not so sure Artest is a thug
he didn't stand up to ben wallace, but he did go after a small white man
The Lakers are the most talented team in the West (if not the NBA). Only way they don't make it out of the west:
-Denver matures and becomes disciplined. There's no reason to think this will ever happen.
-the Mavs make a blockbuster trade at the deadline involving that worthless thing Drew Gooden calls a body.
-The Spurs magically start playing like it's 2007
Offensive spacing. Just too many guys playing the post.
Backcourt quickness, especially on the defensive end.
Bench.
I am very positive on Lakers this year. Their system is mature.
I'll just give you one example: Ron Artest, contrary to what people said in the summer, has been integrated to the team way better than RJ&Dyess, Rasheed, Ariza and Shaq, with the exception of Carter.
