Assuming Kobe is out for the all-star game and OKC maintains the best record, Scott Brooks will probably start Westbrook. Possibly Harden.
Couldn't have said it better. Sad but true. Old body, a lot of miles on those knees. He is just a human being
I am talking about who would replace Kobe in the lineup. CP3 is assumed to take the other spot - didn't know I had to say it!
oh ok. I thought you meant he'd do westbrook and harden. backups im expecting them to be harden, lillard, bledsoe, and curry.
What a horrifically mismanaged franchise. The sad thing is that they will still be talked about and regarded as a free-agent haven due to their clout with the media and their stature as a major market. I'm not big on schadenfreude, but I'm loving what's happening to that team and fan-base right now.
This is terrible. Hope Kobe can recover. If not, I hope the Lakers can keep exciting players like X-man, Johnson, and Swaggy P. Maybe, just maybe the team can be as awesome as the Nick Van Excellent crew until the next great owner/ star player. Bleed purple and gold, always.
Kobe is a cash cow, even if he only plays 1/2 the season. Without him, a lot of "Laker fans" would defect to the Clippers. Gotta have a superstar on the team, even if it's only symbolic.
Good point. Farmar is out another week with his torn hammy. They could bring someone up from D-League or (gulp!) ask Meeks to initiate the offense. They will become the fastest pace team in the league to try and hide the problem.
Karma getting Kobe for trying to break MJ's record through sheer number of career games played. You're on notice, Lebron. (kidding)
