    I know there's a sucker born every minute, but who would be stupid enough to trade for Kobe at this point? His awful play, his team killing personality, his salary....who wants that?

    Big reason why the Lakers suck:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Kobe's ranks so far this season: 3rd in points per game, 126th in FG% (out of 131 ranked) and 403rd in plus-minus (out of 404 ranked).</p>&mdash; Tim Reynolds (@ByTimReynolds) <a href="https://twitter.com/ByTimReynolds/status/533568147631386624">November 15, 2014</a></blockquote>

    My goodness. This is worst than Lin top of backboard shot. Not a single defender in his face and he miss a 5 ft shot by a ft.

    Look at the Lakers spacing. I don't know what kind of system they are playing.

    Yep. So the Spurs literally have five guys in the paint for the rebound.

    They're doing the Mike Brown system. When you have no answers, try the most ridiculous thing you can think of

    Like a Sacre iso

    Lakers fans truly believe their season hinged upon Ryan Kelly, Nick Young, the Randle kid, and the old guy being healthy.

    He's not proportioned right. 7ft tall but with the body more suited to battle the Big Show or Kane in WWE.

    So far, Byron Scott makes MDA look like Pop and Phil Jackson.

    No offense system. Spacing is no existence, tempo is slow, and they couldn't shoot 3s.

    On defense, what defense? They can't guard inside, they can't guard outside, A few simple passes will make their defense rotation immediately out of whack.

    MDA can coach a better D than this crap and his offense system is way better! They would have been a much better team with MDA coaching. Those Lakers FO and a few Lakers "legends" are so clueless.

    Dantoni was always going to be the scapegoat just like Mike Brown.

    Older Lakers won't ever diss Byron Scott like that, but whats most disrespectful is how they justify Kobe shooting like a mad scientist by saying every player that comes there basically don't belong in the NBA. Its unprofessional.

    With Steve Nash not even coming around its like guys have started running away from the Lakers organization and not wanting to go there. Until Kobe is gone they won't start truly rebuilding and gaining top tier free agent interests like the past.

    Or they're purposely competing with the 76ers for the 2015 tank-stakes.

    I swear Sacre dribbles like a novice that decided to play a pick up game of basketball. How is this guy in the NBA with a dribble like that. Before he could even make that move against a good team, it would have been stolen as soon as he bounced it. LOL....

    I really want this to happen now.
    So that TMZ walks in on JLin getting that BJ and we all laugh at the amusing photos that will be released afterwards.

    Okay, I've seen enough. The Lakers need to start winning a game here and there because 1) they will lose their draft pick if it's outside the top five and 2) it would be nice if they could steal a few games against our Western conference competition. I really wanted them to beat New Orleans a few days ago.

    I don't see any way they get out of the top 5 with Kobe averaging over 23 shots per game and the rest of the roster not being good enough to dig them out of that hole.
