Watson / Delonte / Nate Rob........Blake 4 million, Duhon 3.5 million, Morris 1 million.

How much did Brandon Roy sign for? The dude is ballin right now in Minny. Yes, it's against Maccabi or whatever, but still, you can add him to the list.

Sooo.... I can gather that we still suck...... and especially so at the bench and point guard?.....

The PG spot will look deceiving tonight. Blake got assists......

He was standing still behind the 3 point line and dumped it to Kobe each time.

Just got the feed up..... 36 point deficit to the Jazz.... Someone please tell me that we have been playing the bench most of the game.....

Edit: I just checked the box score.... we got kicked from the start..... Nice....

Wait, I thought summer league play was over.

Duhon is better than Blake and that's sad because Duhon isn't good.

40 point deficit? Where is your pride?

16 points off the bench..... against their 3rd string.... while playing extended minutes.... Preseason or not that isn't good. Shooting again is an issue. The Lakers seem to be the destination where shooters go to die....

Will there be a highlight video of Kobe's 3rd quarter?

so they couldn't make a shot at all. and couldn't defend either. our entire bench is terrible. we gotta get someone who can create for themselves and just let them run wild in the 2nd unit. Barbosa?

are starters shouldn't be struggling this much just bc Dwight isn't there. and as for our bench we need someone who can penetrate bc guys like Jamison Meeks and Ebanks would thrive of drive and kick passes for midrange or 3's.

just bc it looks good in practice doesn't mean it'll translate in a real game. seriously hope they don't look like this in the regular season bc we should be able to beat the guys were playing just with playing the starters limited minutes I would think

Nice split by Duhon who then hits Meeks for the 3.

By far the only good play from our bench in the 2nd half

Lakers 69 - 105 Jazz

Our lack of athleticism is still a glaring weakness. Howard's presence will help but athleticism at the Center position isn't as important as it is at the wings and backcourt...... where we are woefully lacking.

I truly believe it's the coaching bc these guys can play and shoot and were doing fine before they got here. brown has to do something about the 2nd unit bc it looks like he just throws them out there and watches. Jamisn & Meeks can be huge for us! they just gotta be utilized as they are not at all so far.

we better play better than this when it's the regular season bc just bc our roster isn't 100% healthy doesn't mean they play like this for 4 straight games. otherwise Kobe will never get rest this season.

Jodie Meeks coming alive, nice to see.

See! All Meeks needs is to be able to catch and shoot the 3 ball

Why no CDR yet?

There's the Meeks we signed. That confidence is coming back.
