The Lakers got beat by a better team

[DMC]

Kobe makes the Lakers a load of money. The big cable contract they got wasn't because of Blake.

Kobe will have to quell Kobe. There's not a coach in the league who could do that given his worth to the franchise. He will just tell them to off, what are they going to do?

A successful coach will run the triangle, because that's what Kobe knows and what will get Pau and Drew touches. Everyone else will do what they are there to do, play catchers.

If you hired D'Antoni, Pau would be the guy you wanted to keep. He would be terrific in D'Antoni's offense.

I don't think so. Pau is always trailing the break.

I think Brown sucks balls as the Lakers' head coach. This team is currently loaded with enough talent to more than compete for a championship. They have the 2 biggest big men in the league and one of the greatest players that has ever played. - they looked like out there. They weren't pumped or hustling. Bynum jogging down the court as if it's a regular season game. Saying stupid things like closing out games is easy. I mean total guffaws. Then you have Pau looking lost and hesitant and giving up shots he can make with his eyes closed.

They looked lost, pathetic, discombobulated, and they hated playing with each other.

Coach Brown is responsible for his inept coaching or lack thereof. The guy can't handle this team and it's evident the team has no respect for him.
Brown did absolutely the tiest coaching job ever. This team underproduced and just wasted this season.

Btw, I hate the ing Lakers but seeing that much talent go to waste is a travesty. That is all.

Please keep Bynum and Artest.

The soap opera on and off the court was wonderful entertainment.

A child with a lunatic.

Good stuff...

Well I did not expect the Lakers to get past Oklahoma but I was disgusted at the officiating…I understand the refs calling a tight game in close out situations but Perkins brought no athleticism this series…He mauled tugged on jerseys & pushed in the back every play…Then they call ticky tack incidental contact fouls on Bynum last night which put the big guy in the hole in the 1st quarter…Then they give Artest a Flagrant when he made a clean “all ball “ block…Then they T-up Kobe for challenging the call….

Oklahoma or Spurs vs Indiana ?….I will be watching Pawn Stars & NASCAR like the rest to the country…The NBA is a a scripted joke…

So a Laker fan finally admits the 2002 WCF were rigged.
