Yeah, but please name another superstar with THIS bad of a surrounding cast, albeit the reason for that is Kobe himself, but still.
Lin makes 15 million, can't run plays for shit.


Melo's supporting cast ain't much better to be honest, only bright light is Shumpert lol.

our offensive might not be good
but i do think our defense somewhat improved
i still like Scott better than D'Antoni


actually surprisingly, even with no clear cut offensive plan besides giving Kobe the ball (and i only say they need to fix it because the rest of the team look like lost puppies), the Lakers are ranked like 9th in offensive rating in the league, and they probably need to fix their defense a lot more before fixing their broken offense.

Smith and Hardaway are still learning triangle offense... well Anthony isn't super effective right now either...

Apparently if Kobe had another +20point player/scorer Lakers would be killing. Smh delusional ppl out there. As much as I love the Lakers this won't happen. Ps. Post delusional jspers here :wacko:

rarely is one's shot selection perfect. and when you're a sg who averages upwards of 20 shots a game on your career, you're going to be relied on - particularly with a lackluster roster

i dont think this roster (even without rookie randle and nash) is worse than a couple of the campaigns the lakers set out post-shaq, its just they have a MUCH older kobe. not the 81 pter who can will them to the a game 7 vs one of the fanciest offenses since showtime (PHX a le nash/amare/matrix/barbosa etc)

this team WILL end up around .500 im certain, barring (more) injuries

kobe's fg% can only go up from here..... once the team figures one another out

i feel like i'm rebutting rhetoric, probably being trolled as per usual
