Fri. 1/20 - Lakers @ Magic - Predictions & Comments

Well this really sucks....i didnt expect us to lose both Miami and Orlando games....anybody still opposed to the Dwight for Bynum deal? lol.

Bynum got no court vision, he only looks for the OBVIOUS pass, which is normally Kobe.

pau is the worst

Orl. management?

Typical Lakers defense. Bynum covers for Fisher, no one covers for Bynum.

Dwight is so fast with his feet.... Bynum looks like those trees from lord of the rings in the paint

kobe still cant get a call

They seem to fear him honestly, but Drew actually usually doesn't, he'll pass to Fish or whoever is open, which is why I thought that was weird, must not have seen Kapono.

Dwight is killing Drew. Not even close.

How anyone can say Drew is close to Dwight as a player is beyond me.

Derek get that stupid look off your face.

Just remember -- 8 of their next 11 are on the road!!

This team will be 500 by the all star break.

I don't know how anyone can be opposed to a Bynum for Dwight deal.... Jim included.

You do what you can to get Dwight here. Kobe and thats it. Thats the only one who is untouchable.

Did you miss Bynum chasing down and blocking Nelson's layup attempt.... that was pretty quick and fast....

I still can't believe this team is this bad at shooting open jumpers. Pretty sure even your average D-league player could hit open jumpers at a better clip than most of the Lakers.

15 orebounds...even big baby have 5 of them...

If Mitch seriously pulls off a Dwight for Drew trade straight up, it would be another Pau-caliber STEAL/trade.

I agree that Dwight is better, but nobody ever makes comparisons on quickness and athleticism. They do point out that Drew is also great at rebounding, blocking shots, and has more moves in the paint that Dwight, better footwork.

Drew is the second best center in the league, but far away from Dwight being top at 1st

i am sorry for that but we really need a tru point guard . fish has his moments but for the whole season it doesn t work anymore he can t defend the quicker guards any more and that is a fact-

All I was saying was Kapono was wide open in the corner, Kobe was guarded up top, so he passes to Kobe. Why?[/quote]

You don't know? It's all about chemistry. Once teams learn how to work with Kobe they win big time. Break the team up you have to sacrifice time to bring these newbies in and that costs games...

2 of the worst games i've seen in a long time. Can't say that im waiting for the next ones.

Dwight still worth both Bynum and Gasol to me.

I have to agree.

If we're to believe the preseason rumors, the front office felt the same way. A**hat Stern had other plans for us though...
