Someone needs to interview Mike D'Antoni. I want to see what he has to say.

Mike D'Antoni is GARBAGE.

Kobe wants to get back to the basics but D'Antoni is not gonna do it, he will stick to his system, thats what got him out of a job in NY, if he didnt learn back then, he's not gonna do it now. Might as well pray for Dwight to fulfill his coach killer role and get his ass outta here

Disrespectful to Mad Dog to compare Ebanks to him. At least Madsen gave it everything he had in the minutes played.

Pretty bad that his 81 is about what this "high powered" offense is capable of these days.

The things Kobe said in reference to Dwight especially, just wow. This team just has MAJOR problems and the team is breaking apart more & more. For as much as they say we just gotta' stick together, it's hard to when guys like Dwight keep acting so immature and not man up and take more responsibility for their own faults.

Ya' see like the other day when Kobe tweeted or something that that Toronto loss (I believe) was on him and that no one is harder on him than himself, etc. That's at least manning up and admitting. He could've made other excuses, maybe he did slightly on not having his legs (which is legit), but he didn't ramble on and put the blame on others or even mention how D'Antoni is killing him with minutes. I'd like to see Dwight just own up and take more accountability for himself.

There's just too many issues overall as we know, it's simply overwhelmingly staggering.

Say what you will about Jamison but he's had two 30 point games as well as getting a consistent 10-15 points off the bench the last few games. Ebanks has yet to do either of those things...ever... So you can't bash Jamison to try to build up Ebanks. He isn't playing because Jamison is better than him in every avenue but defense. And even through devins defense he doesn't make an impact elsewhere enough for it to matter. Clark is closer to Ariza than Ebanks ever will be.

Everything is working fine. Its all working out to plan if Coach Dantoniomos is a 007 under cover double agent sent by Stern to ruin the chances of Kobe getting his 6th ring to tie Jordan.

We had way to many vetrans on this team who just though were gonna win a ring like nothing. Kobe, nash, pau, jamison, dwight. They all got up in the hype from the media and it ruined this season. When things go bad the team got frustrated. When they blame MB and fired him they though every thing was gonna be better but when it didn't they started blaming each other. A big problem with this team is lack of depth but even with this team they should be in the playoffs. Lack of leadership and inability to rise above the hype really screwed this team. Maybe a whole new season will fix things but we still need to get depth. Problem is unless trading pau or some miracle trade happens this won't happen until the 2014 FA period.

I really don't see this team as much of a contender until 2014. If dwight leaves after this season maybe even longer.

yoo majesty bro where were you?

No internet sadly. May be a while too. All I have is my cell phone now

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
