**the official la lakers thread**

[w/Attitude]

i dont recall us lookin like D-leaguers on the road in previous years...even during the dark days of the smush era

yeah but we've given up plenty of leads and lost to crap teams before.

our record is good against quality teams.

it's just these brainfarts against crap teams.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

We just need to worry about getting in healthy.

Once the playoffs start: let it all hang out.

Seriously, we got a shot at beating anyone in 7...agree?

with homecourt, yes

[w/Attitude]

and btw a lot of this is on kobe.

he's been ****ty in late games this year.

he also has been worse on the road than at home (while in previous years it was the opposite)

[[ DUBBZZ ]]

with homecourt, yes

Mak, Do you chalk up these losses up to us being bad or because we ****ed up?

I say mental mistakes that can be corrected.

Honestly, with this squad now, we can hang with and beat any team.

I never really worry about losing to bad teams because they aimt gone be in the playoffs anyway. I Only worry when we get completely outclassed by potential playoff Oopponents.

too lazy to find mak's movie thread.

other than blowing leads and playing like crap, i just haven't seen any consistency on the road...i see the same meltdown each time


the team CAN change

the team CAN adjust

the team CAN get better on the road


but the bottomline, they are very suspect right now

fock yea this has a lot to do with Kobe...he's been straying a lot and these new guys really dont know what to do

there are times when i see the 2nd unit actually look like they're running an offense and being effective

when kobe comes in, they pass it to him and watch...and it doesn't matter if his shot is off or not, he keeps chucking...that's fine except he's got those two 7 footers who are pretty good at making easy shots
