I am surprised Griffin didn't foul out sooner.

66fga tonight for the lakers. They need to play at a pace that's not a crawl.

Chris Paul has more assists than the entire lakers combined.

Even if Nash is still out?
There shouldn't be any reason for the Lakers to not have a win already, even with Nash being out for one of them and half of the other. This team has a wide variety of talent, even the bench is great, and with the way Brown's trying to use them, it's obvious this is his own doing, not the team.

And now Nash has a non-displaced fibula fracture. Would we call that a 'broken leg?'

What I do not understand about Mike Brown is that he's trying to implement a new offense.

He's trying to prove he belongs?

Fate dealt him LeBron, and I don't think there was a whole lot of new-age offensive scheming. It was pretty much let LeBron do whatever he wants to do with the kibbles 'n' bits around him. Then Brown comes to L.A. and has to follow the greatest coach in history and do something post-triangle era. Last year, Brown did fine just managing the team without causing too many waves.

But now it's Year 2 in L.A. He's not LeBron's bitch, and Jackson is long gone.

Now Mike Brown can finally "prove" to the critics that he has a wonderful, brilliant, elite mind for devising an offense, especially with Nash around. But it doesn't make much sense. There are too many old veterans on the team. Why are you trying to teach these guys something new? Just put the ball in Nash's hands and let him do whatever he wants.

Put that aside for a moment. The other pieces don't fit. Artest served his purpose 2 years ago but has checked out. Gasol doesn't seem like he wants to be there. I've never been sold on Howard (despite the numbers).
