Are we seriously still caring about this completely useless stat?

I think Kobe's play against the Bobcats was really detrimental to the team. We need a facilitator, and when Kobe doesnt do it, there really isnt anyone who can right now.

Just ignore it if you don't like it. I think its instructive that we now have won 3 in a row where Kobe has scored more than 30 points.

Ron

We'll be okay once Nash comes back (in the facilitator department, I mean).

What's going to be interesting to me is to see how many times Kobe raises his arm during the game calling for the ball when Nash is doing all the quarterbacking.

Our defense (or lack thereof) is the biggest issue to me right now. The Bobcats (!) guards tore us a new one during that third period...the only reason they didn't beat the Lakers by a wide margin is for some inexplicable reason they went away from consistently driving the lane.

Losing teams find a way to lose, and that is the definition of the Bobcats for far too long.

That inexplicable reason was that we finally decided to stop dribble penetration. Morris and Meeks played excellent defense on Kemba, Gordon and Sessions down the stretch.

This is a strange thread to be made, considering Kobe, so far, has been scoring better than ever (%-wise) before.

i don't mind Kobe shooting a lot. If he makes plenty of the shots taken, that is.

BTW, besides Howard, no player in the Lakers roster is averaging over .470FG% besides Kobe Bryant.

one of the big defensive problems Im hoping Nash will solve is that we turn the ball over way too much and dont have the athletes to transition back so are getting killed on the break - less turnovers and more efficiency should cover up some of those blemishes

MojoPin

Are there any sites that keep track of the average amount of points scored off turnovers against the Lakers? I would be curious to see that statistic.

UPDATE:

Lakers are now 1-0 when Kobe shoots 40 times or more.

Ron

He can go waste his space somewhere else, he is done on the Laker board.
