    I watched every single laker game this season and I doubt you did.

    They have no trouble scoring. They are actually one of the top teams scoring wise. But they got no defense, especially at the PG position. It's not just Chris Paul that destroyed them , they can't even stop guys like Darren Collison, Mo Williams, Kema Walker, Jarret Jack. In nearly every game the opposing PG put on all-star numbers.

    If they were bunch of 24 year olds like the Rockets who can run and gun all day, they might be able to get away with those kind of defense a little bit, but they are not. Kobe Nash Dwight can put on any points assist rebound numbers they want and it would still make no difference, cause D'Anthoni can't coach defense.
