Tues. 1/4 - Lakers vs Pistons - Predictions & Comments

Leading by 3 at the half against the Pistons at home. Kobe missing free throws, and Detroit getting to the paint repeatedly. I should be happy the Lakers have the lead, but something's still not right with this team.

Why was Luke even in the game? Lamar couldn't run for a couple more minutes to close out the half?

But tonight, Luke is the least of our problems when Kobe can't even hit freethrows. The team (not just Kobe) can't seem to put the ball in the basket. At least they are taking care of the ball better.

The refs fouling out Drew for the half was a bad joke....that's the biggest reason the Pisnots are even in the game.

Lol. SO pissed at that. And why is both Luke and Ron in at the same time? Come on!

I thought Luke was in the game to pass the ball with his superior b-ball IQ? The best play he could make was to call his own number? LMAO.

I think you're too kind.

I'm blown away by him sometimes.

Stepped out. TO.
Blew a layup (or all but).
Made that nice steal/pass.
Takes a forced, stupid shot to end the half.

That's two low bbIQ plays in 2:24 (I think that's what he played). Unbelievable.

It's always something different every game. Tonight it's Bynum in early foul trouble. What good is he if he fouls out. This team is not a good match with this guy...

Yeah he should. Maybe you can replace him.

Go away troll.

Damn Norm Nixon, you'd think it's negative 12 with that type of outfit.

2 of his three fouls were questionable, another was Fish losing his man.

Brick mamba? That is too funny... I think I'm going to wet my pants... Kobe is taking such smack these days...

Lakers take too many 'extra passes' sometimes. I would have rather had Artest take that open three than Fisher stepping in for the 2.

Right on cue, Artest hits a three.

Fish just hit 3

this team is still a joke for the opposing teams. I think we'll need another 20 games to maybe get out of this funk. Kobe is 4/15????? the rest of the starting lineup is not too bad.

What? We're not a good math with Drew? Bynum was killing Detroit in the paint when he was in the game.

Yeah probably, but if he fouls out early? Think about it...

I think they are done.

Ron Ron!!!!! Fisher!!! This is how we are supposed to play

Lakers putting together a run? I must be dreaming! Someone pinch me.

There is way too much time and Pistons are way too patient... Can they close these guys out???

Kobe passes Nique!

Congrats Kobe! Great job!

Congrats Kobe!

History in action...

So Kobe wasn't fouled?
