who should he have passed it to. we don't have any ****ing shooters and its not like Dantoni woulda put Meeks on the floor to draw up a misdirection play.

Ok I have to ask... Wtf metta? Did he think we needed a 3 start to turn around... and then realized a layup could tie it?

It's not just one play. Kobe's iq seems to drop 20 points at the end of games.

If you are talking about the last two shots I'm fine with them. Ill take Kobe contested shots in the final seconds over some players being open. You saw what metta did.

The one at the rim I am fine with. The one I was thinking about was the one where he dribbled out the shot clock and then put up a running mid range shot which led to a Harden fast break.

Worthy and Horry telling the truth.

**King Sancho Fantastic** · 12-04-2012, 07:50 PM

****ing pathetic...

**Luke** · 12-04-2012, 07:57 PM

Awful awful awful. This team sucks.

I can't wait until Nash gets back, I'll still stand by my statement that we'll be fine by christmas but damn are we pathetic as of today.

Time Warner Cable curse....that company is evil enough for that to be true

**** you Lakers

Just another pathetic loss. These guys are playing like they expect to be handed wins. Its sad.

Kobe went full hero ball last night. We saw some flashes before but this was the first time we have seen full blown Kobe mode. Kobe took as many shots as the rest of the starters combined. Another interesting stat: Lakers are 1-7 when Kobe scores 30+ and 7-3 when he scores less than 30.

**Luke** · 12-05-2012, 02:55 PM

Not supporting Kobe chucking, but in some of those games he's been forced to because the rest of the team is playing passively.
