exactly, he was juking all night in front of Hayward but going nowhere... no idea what he was doing all night.
I rarely have issues with Kobe but tonight he played like he didn't belong in the NBA, let alone being an all star... it was just a weird game for him.

I'd say kobe owned kobe today, aw well hayward can own kobe from his couch while watching him own the playoffs.

Forward Three wrote:$5 says Kobe is still staring at his hands.

sigh on to the playoffs.

I wouldn't call Denver or Miami scrub teams. Do you mean Utah, Cleveland, and Milwaukee?

why make it difficult to brick? just giftwrap the ball to the opponents.

I woulda prefered the fadeaway 3 haha. Props to Hayward for completely dominating his matchup with Kobe. Looks like Kobe is sleeping on the couch tonight.

I'm not sure why but... I'm not upset at all. We'll have to take the 2nd seed and be happy with it.

He should be staring at himself in the mirror.

The entire team stunk tonight....not just Kobe. He tried to get them involved early, but no one could made a shot. The two 3's made it close enough for him to even have a chance to win it.

Hayward's drive wasn't even a foul. They blow the whistle when guys lose their footing now apparently.

Leave it to these Lakers to snap the losing streaks of the opposing teams...

Cavs (well, kind of, since the Clippers did that nights before), Miami, Utah... man.

This is the real laker. A team that doesn't take inferior teams seriously. They deserve to lose. Won't be surprise if we fall to third by the end of regular season

I'll forget about it when we 3-peat. But tonight I'm really pissed.

I would have laughed at you before. Now I agree.

That's what we're there for.

i'm a little upset...only in that this is a bad time to start playing some of the worst ball of the year. then again, last year didn't end that pretty either and it still turned out ok i suppose

Props to Drew for his rebounding. That's the one positive for us from this stinker.

It was always a longshot until SA lost 6 in a row. We'll beat anyone anywhere, but not if we play like this.

Lakers mailed this one in from the start. I think the motivation of trying to go after the 1st seed is gone....and they really didn't feel like they had to work hard for this one.

Yes, Kobe botched this one, he Laos put them in place to win it with those two clutch threes.

more than the loss, i was pissed at the lack of boxing out... i saw everyone on the Jazz constantly getting into the lanes for rebounds and whatnot.... that lack of effort is what pisses me off most.

Really, there was no sense of urgency throughout the entire game. I'm wondering if the Denver loss put them back in cruise mode and now they're content with getting the 2 seed.

But with this loss we have to make sure we stay in front of Miami, and Boston. Lakers only have a 1 game lead over them in the loss column.

Doom much. How can people act like this.
