Mon. 12/28 Lakers @ Suns - Predictions & Comments

Its ok let them run it up, we still play them a few more times this year, im sure we'll run it up on them next time.

I know everyone is being hard on Gasol for his defense, but c'mon Bynum is no better. I cant stan it when he gets a damn pass under the basket and he cant even get a dunk in, thats ridiculous, personally im getting tired of him.

well this should drop us to #20 in the power rankings

So...who was defending Amare?

Zero defense, no intensity. I guess we could use Ron Artest about now.

We need to get a better bench. This has been a problem for too long now.

It has to be either Gasol or Bynum rite ?

Lol I was going to say does he make that much of a difference?

NO...I would go lower. Maybe 23?

just a bad game all around but no worries, their just in a bad stretch. they had them last season too and they were able to play their way out of it, time to regroup and focus on the next one

That was hard to watch....with the Penix announcers too. Another game where only Kobe shows up. Reminds me of the 2005-2006 team. When will the scrubs start earning their keep?

Outside of that, what's wrong with our bigs....not even Drew, even Pau was mediocre tonight. Lamar was even worse.

I think Phil conceded this game in the first quarter when he put Morrison in. Seriously....he put Morrison in before Shannon or Jordan.

Also....Why do I pay the NBA so I can listen to opposing announcers call our games?

i thought the phx announcers were some of the least homerrific i've heard. they had homer moments, but you should treat yourself to a night of sean elliot or tommy heinsohn before complaining about those guys.

No he doesn't. The difference is effort and mental toughness....something seems to be lacking in everyone not named Kobe.

The calls clearly went against us in this game, but we were in it for a long time....we just couldn't get ourselves together to grab the game.

They were respectful in the beginning because they were so scared of us after what we'd done to them. Once the lead ballooned they started getting cocky.

They even tried to justify their starters running up the score on our scrubs by saying Phil left Kobe out late in blowouts. Whatever....take your little ref-assisted win.

According to you, every loss is ref-assisted.

Quit being a cry baby. Every team has their off nights, and the Suns have been dominant at home this season.
