Is this team experienced enough to make it out of the 1st round this year? With the many injuries, ups and downs this team faced this season, we still have not reached a consistent form. if McGrady had his microfracture before the season started, Lowry was in the team to start the season, i believe we would be better than we are today. remember, Rome wasnt built in a day. This Lakers team have went through some heartaches before too when Shaq left. We still havent reached stability. We need a core that plays together long enough and we need experience. AB+Scola+Landry we must all remember are just in their 2nd season and they are considered our core. re-signing Ron should be our priority and make him part o the core. and of course, Yao still needs to step up another level. he has what it takes but i think what is holding him back is mostly mental. We can learn a lot from todays loss. a lot of factor that contributed to the loss; season high 23 TO is a major factor. im surprised we stayed so close despite having such high TO. and Ron should just stop talking trash and do his thing. maybe we should alternate Ron and Shane on Kobe? Or maybe Yao should try get a tan??
I'll add this one: What percentage of Ron's 3 pt shot was a result of good passing with space, what did it compare to prior games? I know he takes a few a game just dribbling to the left and take off, but last night, it seems all his shots are tough shots.
i got one, what does the offence do when Yao is physically fronted and really fatigued down the stretch?
IT'S PRETTY EASY TO BE THE ROCKETS WHEN YAO PLAYS THE ENTIRE FIRST QUARTER AND THE SOME!~!!!! The entire game I'm sitting there saying wow, ya we are tied, but we will lose big in the 4th!!! Once again, lack of coaching.... its a damn joke....
I've got one. Why don't the other 4 players sit down for a tea party while Ron Artest tries to fight through all 5 Lakers to the basket one by one like in Enter the Dragon?
