    because they are better than us. I just need to remind myself that we are building a dynasty that will take over after shaqs retirement.
    waiting s-cks!

    They've lost plenty of times this year. It can be done.

    Only to bad teams they don't care about.

    Lakers are sleepwalking through the season. They will roll in the playoffs.

    It's amazing how people don't learn from history.

    Last year, everyone said SA would beat them.

    Por the year before.

    :rolleyes:

    There really is no hope.

    I don't hate the Lakers, I HATE the way they made us look.

    Gotta give Phil Jackson his due, his teams know how to play defense...and even without Kobe who usually takes on the other team's highest scoring guard.

    Question: with Kobe out, why didn't we say "we'll do whatever is necessary to keep Shaq from beating us with a career nite (double, triple team or whatever), and make the others beat us?" We continued to play him straight up all nite and he wasted us:( I know he can't be shut down, but I don't understand our strategy :confused:

    How exactly are we "building a dynasty"? A dynasty is all about teamwork...Right now, I see 12 individuals failing to work as a cohesive unit.

    A-Train,
    It's not twelve, it's fifteen since they changed the name of the injured list.

    We have a gameplan, it's one guy dribble, four guys watch, and see if one guy can beat five other guys. Every once in a while, they forget and run a play that involves passing before they get stuck in traffic.

    Heaven forbid we get a fastbreak. I think we lead the league in lowest fastbreak points per game - with approximately 1.0 per game.

    I'm with whoever said they are tanking for picks, they couldn't be this bad unless they were trying to be bad.
