I hate to say it, but the Lakers are kind of in trouble now.

Kobe ain't making shots while having to take a ton. The bench is NOT productive on both ends (getting out scored by the Wiz' bench 21 vs. 55). Mike Brown's offense is not creating the right mix and spacing, and even his own players are questioning his rotation too.

That's what/why all the rumors flying around that the players lost faith/trust on Mike Brown. His system was questionable to start with before the season and now just proving most people's doubt was correct.

Well, having said all that I would say we are in trouble. Yes, I admit it and it is painfully obvious our bench ain't going to cut it as it. Two games in a row our bench got blown out of the water. @ Pistons we were outscored by 25pts, and @ Wiz we were again scored by like close to 30 points?!

This is where I don't understand Brown's rotation either. Our bench (those who got any PTs) clearly can't cut it, and we are sitting Kapono, Walton and Ebank? Why not give them some PTs? What difference would this make if our other bench guys ain't getting the job done in the first place?

Oh yeah, Kobe ain't guilt free here either. He is just not making shots, and has been forcing alot of shots needlessly. Pass more darn it! Utilitze both Bynum and Pau more! You give them the damn ball, and you cut; they WILL give you back the ball for a bucket!

Tough break for Rubio... took one wrong step in the wrong way, and your season is over...

Rubio is out for this season, and by the way things look now the T-Wolves' playoffs hope might also be gone with him too. Then again, as sad as it is, as I always say injury is part of the game.

The Celtics @ Lakers game wasn't on tv here in Hong Kong, so I knew I've missed a great one. I am just glad we won the game though. And based on the game highlights and recap I watched and read (it sucks, isn't it?), looks like Kobe gave Bynum a good play in the closing seconds to seal the W, eh? Who's that idiot said Kobe can't play team ball? Lol!

Oh, I know who said it, it was Shaq!  He did in his book "Shaq Uncut"! Well, I am one chapter away from finish reading this book, and I must say it is quite an interesting read. Yes, Shaq did say Kobe cannot or unwilling to play team ball during the 2003-04 season. But then he also added he understood maybe Kobe was trying use playing to "escape" from his trial and all the non-sense that season. In the end though there were fights between them and all, he has mutual respect for Kobe though. Another player he mentioned in his book is LeBron. He said a lot of good things about LBJ, but also added he has NO IDEA why he (in his own words) checked himself out in Game 6 of the 2010 ECF vs the Celtics, and pretty much the entire 2011 NBA Finals. IMHO, some of the things he said in the were biased or strongly opinionated, but overall it is an interesting book to read if you are an NBA fan or a Shaq fan like me.

2 days before the trade deadline... as a Lakers fan I hope we get some bench help without moving either Gasol or Bynum. Yet, if we must move Gasol, perhaps sending him to the Mavs for Kidd and Odom? Salary wise it works, but I am not sure if getting Odom back is such a good idea now though...

Unfortunately it's true... Injury always is a big part of the game no matter how good you are.  I think Rubio is even gonna be missing the Olympic too...

Derek Fisher to Rockets
and Lakers get Jordan Hill

OneBigBanana

All the players got the most talks or rumors didn't get trade... And the Blazers decided to clean the house by firing the coach, shipped Wallace and Camby then released Oden (this one was only matter of time imo)

Jordan Hill

First of all, as much as I hate to see Fish go, I think we did quite well out of those trades we made. We basically only gave up Fisher for J-Hill and Session... errr... Walton, Kapono never really played much, so without them really doesn't hurt us.

Ok, as for J-Hill, call me crazy but this is a STEAL!!!! The former Wildcat can totally bang down low, rebound the ball, and is quite reliable within 15-17ft!!!! When Yao was out last year, he started in place of him along side Scola; and I am quite happy (if not feeling impressed) with what I've seen in those several games he played in. In short, this guy will be a good piece for us to backup either Pau or Andrew, and/or play along side either of them. This also means either McBob or Murphy will have NO PTs whatsoever (Hey, Brown, you are not going to keep playing both of them together ever again, right?)

As for Sessions, I don't know enough about him, but if nothing else at least he is much younger and athletic than Fisher.

如果Fisher唔可以係LAKERS退休

Speaking of Fisher, he hasn't reported to the Rockets yet, and that forces Jordan Hill to sit.

As a Lakers fan I feel sad about Fisher being traded, but from a basketball point of view, we NEED to get younger and better at the PG spot.

Hope we could see Fsiher's Jersey in Staples Centre sometimes...

They are talking about boyout between Fisher and the Rockets so he could go join a contender...

I hope so too. Fisher might not be considered as a legend like Magic or Kareem etc., but he is definitely one of those very important players in Lakers' history!
