| This game is all on Dwight Howard... I don't care what anyone says he should be routinely getting out rebounded by guards in the lane... Just ridiculous |

Gasol and Hill, we probably would be up this game. No way they would have been as bad as Howard was tonight. What we get out of Gasol is offense, something we don't out of Howard. |
yeah right. Pau has been horrid and lost his starting job |
Oh please, Pau losing his starting job is cause MDA is (bleep)..And you did NOT read what he said, he said Pau gives us offense, and he does. Howard doesn't!!!! At least Pau would have made up for Dwight's lousy offense... anyways on to tmr..

| I sure hope that elbow doesn't bother Kobe from here on out. We need him to continue playing at this insane level, because judging by Dwight's performance here in OKC, we can't rely on him at all. |

Anthony sucks. He just states the obvious and hopes it passes off as something intelligent. |

| Its just mind boggling that a 34 year old has to carry a team on his back. I love Howard but he really really needs to work on the post and help carry the load if he wants to be a franchise player |

Watching the Dwight getting blocked by Ibaka replay.
I noticed you got Perkins pushing Dwight in the back with his forearms and
Serge holding Dwight's off arm down with his other hand. BS!
You got Pau bodying up Serge on that play or drawing him out of the key cause his mid range Dwight stuffs that play 10 outta 10 times!!!!

They showed a replay in which D12 could have grabbed a rebound, but had his back turned to the ball and Westbrook was able to hustle to it. D12 just had no preparation to get the rebound like a center his height should. Its not that he's physically slow... he's mentally slow. Is this curable?

Stop blaming this game on Nash or Metta or DHoward.
Put the blame where it belongs, on the moronic coach trying to get this talent to play his style. DH not being used right, Nash gives up the ball to Kobe, who shouldn't handle it. Then he pushes Gasol out of the paint, so who's left in their natural/best spot.
WE give up 100 shots to OKC and take 30 threes.
Phil would have kept this game around 90-100 pts, where we have a chance.
The coach will be gone after the season, Phil will come back and DH will resign. |

The reason is plain simply because okc fouls A lot... That 40 should have been around 60 |

Please explain how he should be used then?... He had no post game.. Can't get alley oops like he used to.. Can't rotate on defense.. Routinely gets out rebounded by guards in the lane... And the cherry on top?.. He shoots fts at a horrid percentage. |

a blame game again.
Just take it easy, guys.
It is nobody's fault.
This team is just too old and not good enough to compete, period. |

Well i know one thing for sure, if MD is here, DH won't resign, not gonna happen. If MD stays, Kobe might retire, they would have to gut the roster. |

Anthony always seems like a Laker fan to me. He was complimenting Kobe all game. |

First and foremost he's hurt, but nobody seems to want to give him any slack for that. He's prob not even 60% of what he was, which is adding to everything you mentioned. His post game sucks, I've always said that, but he certainly can do much better. The Lakers need to slow the post and play inside out, with Gasol and Howard, not outside outside like now.
The whole system is a mess and this coach has messed up Howard, Gasol, and Nash's games. He's averaging 29 threes/game up 10 from last year and he's giving up way too many shots, too quick of tempo. He's too stupid to realize that every team knows if they run the Lakers they can win, so how do you slow them down, do what Phil did, play your bigs, force other team to play your style, but no, MD wants to run and crap..
Oh and no ball movement, 11 assists tonight, 20 turnovers, 0 steals to 10 for OKC, he plays to NONE of the teams strengths but his game plan helps to epxose our weaknesses. |

The irony is that when we play with our bigs, it ends up being a turnover fast break for the other team... |
