This is tough as a fan.

I mean, at least in the Smush/Kwame era we knew we were underdogs and that there was a good chance of losing more games than winning games.

I would hope & pray that a trade might just do it, but there's no guarantee with that either sadly. It might have to be through the coach, which again unfortunately might not be the easiest thing to do financially for management and considering how late we are into the season changing systems again.

The quicker you all realize there is no trade that will save us, the quicker you can move on. Unless they trade for a time machine with a destination set for 2009, this team is done.

This Kobe ball/ system/ whatever is loser ball.

So who should we give it to? Dwight in the post? He's a walking turnover.

Where's Devin Ebanks? Haven't seen him in a while. Why didn't Morris play tonight? Could've made a difference.

Liked our all around body language as a team early.

The problems with this team are going to be more apparent as the other people start to come around.

Dwight is starting to look like Dwight again minus the two bad plays at the end of the game he was running the floor and almost had a career high in rebounding.

Kobe had a bad night till it came time to close and was amazing in the close as usual.

Gasol was aggressive for a half, and did nothing in the 2nd half.

Duhon was alright till the defense realized he wasn't going to take or make any shots so they locked down defensively and Duhon was unable to contribute anything at that point.

Hill was strong, what else is new


Meeks was good early, got cold late, hustled, but his defense leaves something to be desired.


Obvious problems that need to go on this team are Gasol, and our bench point guard.

One of the biggest issues when it comes to our bench point guard is that with Morris he's turnover prone and inexperienced.

With Duhon he's experienced but he is NOT a scoring threat so teams can play riskier defense they can't get away with when someone like Nash is in.

We have no bench 3 unless you count Jamison..and just no at that point.


What we need is a bench 3 and a bench 1 that can score.

This is why getting Barea and Williams from Minnesota and Ariza from Washington is probably the best trade option the Lakers are gonna get and would help the team in each aspect.

If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.


You should reach more often ;)
