The other Parker looked good last night against Denver.
Just had to stop by and wish you guys luck, not that you will need it. The balance in the NBA has clearly swung to the East but the Spurs are clearly the top team in the league. As long as Tim doesn't get hurt, you guys can size the next rings now.
I just hope my Lakers can get into the playoffs and in the non-SA bracket so they can make a little noise of their own.

Get the out of my forum, laker-lover.![]()
This is not a good thing to admit.
But my hatred for the Nuggets, had me rooting for the Lakers last night.
Even though Odom looked like , Cook, Parker, Profit, and some others looked not bad.
Solid D - Yeah he did. Real comfortable and the Denver guards were held more in check than they did against SA. How he does against Nash tonight will be the real test. LA should be OK. Chris Mihm is the weakest link. Even the teenager looked better on the floor. Brown will have his ups and downs. No depth though in the frontcourt. So many guys just suck (Cook, Slava, Vujacic).
I'm really impressed with SA's roster. Talk about a perfect team - skill sets, at udes, depth - all revolving around the sun (Tim). Anyway a team wants to play, SA can match up - plus, there will be few problems about roles (except maybe Udrih - he has to want some PT).
If the Spurs can avoid their typical mid-season slide, they could get 70 this year. The West is weaker across the board. Honestly, only LA really improved with something you can count on (great coaching from Phil).
Your forum?
I said it before the season began and I'll say it again in light of Kobe's game winning shot after Game 1 last night.........he's going to have a sick season.
Disagree on Odom. He did well. Even with his bad shooting, he stayed aggressive (something he didn't do last year). Any times he takes 12+ shots, it's a good thing. He knows how to help in other ways.
better than good. Other than his first name, I didn't see much grounds for the ridicule of Parker that I've seen here. Looked very serviceable to me.
Scored 20 pts, 67% FG%, including the ORB and ensuing clutch jumper with :37 left to send the game into OT. zero T0 in 40 minutes. vs Kobe's 6 TO
I'm still in pain over last night.
No doubt. Getting the ball out of his hands is the best thing for the Lakers. He's like a recovering addict. If you give him too much to drink, he'll be off the ledge.
Now, other guys like Odom, Parker, Kwame, etc... have plenty chances to create for themselves, not just play off him. That will only make him better as the D can't focus on him.
I hope Kobe fails again, miserably. Screw him, Phyllis, and the Lakers.
You think Cook sucks??So many guys just suck (Cook
He has a great outside touch, and seemed to rebound and defend alright.
Damn.....
Some of Odom's shots were just beyond stupid, especially that 50 ft 3 he took at one point.
T Park likes a tall black man with a great touch.
reason?
Cleva is a nice LakerFan (very rare)
What are you, 10 mentally??T Park likes a tall black man with a great touch
God grow up.
Hey man, I'm not an anti-Semite, I swear. I love Mohammed.
Ahem.. no bickering.
2Cleva - good luck to the Lakers. I kind of miss them being good.
i agree![]()
Lakers wont beat the Nuggets again, plain and simple
Because most Laker Fans are bandwagonning, loud mouth jerks that know nothing about basketball. Where were all the Laker Fans last year? It's a new season and Phyllis is back so they are all piling back on. Yeah, they will ride until that first losing streak.
Right now, they have a tough decision to make. Do I pack away the car flags or keep them handy?
Yeah, it might sound like I'm kicking them while they're down. But I don't care. I hope they never sniff another le. It's the Clipper's turn anyway.
I will be extremely disappointed if the Spurs drop one game to the purple and gold pansies.
A back-handed insult. Nice!
Cook is just too soft defensively for my tastes. Loves the perimeter play but not as gritty as say Horry. Can't block shots, his rebounding has been suspect. He'd be fine if he was a SF, but not on a team needing size.
I know a few (keyword: few) as well.
