nobody is the jordan of anything.
Kobe is insane. He's damn good. I used to think the next jordon...then I started thinking of what jordon really did....never gonna be another jordon. Just guys that are on a similar level of play and kobe is one of those. Dude is amazing. I saw him pop a jumper last night that was very jordonesk...it just went. Didn't even move the damn net. Stop and pop. Just wow.

Oh, and almost the whole LAKERS starting squad decided to show up tonight too, which was real nice......
Luke Walton....10 pts 8 rebounds 11 assists
Odom......16+9+8
Smush Parker.......19+7+9
Kwame "Hands of Stone" Brown.......no comment
Man, it was a rough going for us LAKER fans for a while, but, hopefully, they can rally around KB & get it together to make it to the bonus round(S) and do some damage when/if they get there!
Oh, and not lost in all of this is the resurgence?? of the "Warriors!" I still root for these guys in my heart, but, as most of us Bay Area OG's know, it's just self-preservation not getting too high on them. Let's hope B-Diddy & Co can keep things going in the right direction too and finally do you know what.

it's been a rough going lately tho. w/Smush pouting about PJ benching him during 4th qtrs, the Lakers are stuck playing like 4 on 5 most of the time. Smush was already in the doghouse because of his shoddy play, so he's pretty much sealed the deal as far him getting the boot at the end of the season. man, i wish Kupcake could've made the deal for Kidd happen. that would've given us a real boost.
oh well, as it is, falling to the 7th spot isn't so bad. At the 6th, we'd be playing the Spurs. I and most other Lake Show fans would much rather get another crack at the Suns. Hopefully that happens and we get healthy FAST, so we can send Nash, TinkerBell, & gang packing like we shoulda last season.
as for the Warriors, they're making a valiant effort to end their playoff drought. i really thought i was over a couple months ago when Nellie proclaimed, "i can't get these guys to the playoffs." it's gonna be REAL close tho, and they need a lot of help from the Clippers. the Clips have 2 more games left than the W's, so they're gonna have to lose at least a couple more than them for the W's to finally get to the bonus round(s). i hope they make it tho.
GO LAKERS (and Warriors)!!!!!!!1111 :banana:

if your playoff entry hopes are based off another team loosing....you're probably gonna loose the first round anyways.
Lakers will probably loose to the suns in the first round anyways.

curse you, Kupcake!? even Kobe is human, and there's no way Kobe can carry the team for a full season. our sorry excuse for a GM better get KB some help this offseason. at the pace that Kobe's going, he's not going to last more than a few more seasons before wearing down.
as far as last night's game vs the Clips goes, the Lake Show had it, but gave up another 4th qtr lead. up by 10 w/8:xx min to go in the 4th and let ET (Sam Cassell) & Co back in it?? aye carumba
sorry, Warriors. the good news is that at least they mightl be back in the running for the Oden+Durant sweepstakes. hopefully we won't be too.....i really want another shot @ Tinkerbell & the Suns even if we're playing like crap right now.

too many key injuries for the lakers this year.
They need another defensive body..interior...big....decent. Someone they can lean on when they need some D...like the 4th quarter.

but, yeah, the LAKERS definitely need a post presence & a PF+C that can patrol the lane on both ends but esp on D. Bynum might be good some day, but the kid is clearly not ready yet and is soft as cotton candy.
above and beyond all that, we NEED a COMPETENT point guard. I've been rooting for Smush all along. I even thought he had some potential when he was w/the Cavs and playing behind Dejuan Wagner, but dude is just not the answer. What's more, he's unexplicably come down w/some primadonna complex like he's D-Wade, Kobe, or Lebron. At least those guys ARE good. Smush is just lucky to be back in the L again and not bouncing around the Euro leagues or NBDL let alone being the starting PG for the LAKERS. but dude's been handed the job by default because we really are that sorry at the point. with Sasha Vujacrap & a steal green Farmar on the bench, PJ doesn't have any other choice but to give Smush the burn.
but, whatever, enough ranting and whining. there's still work to be done. Lake Show needs to get it together and FAST..........for their sake and the Warriors'.
GO LAKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
p.s. i guess it could be worse. at least we're not the QUEENS. seriously tho, it's not even fun to poke fun at them anymore. i enjoyed the rivalry we used to have, but, man, they're really headed down the dumps. it's actually pretty sad how far they've fallen.

*SIGH* Lake Show really are on the skids. I hate it when I'm right sometimes.....Kobe looked extremely tired+lethargic against the Suns tonight.
nice win by the Warriors over the Queens tho.
2 games to go......this is gonna be surprisingly close.
