Wed. 3/7 - Lakers @ Wizards - Predictions & Comments

4 for his last 23..... Yikes... that is probably the worst stretch I've every seen for Kobe...

If nothing is done by the FO they are idiots. Something is wrong with the bench if they can't hold a big lead against two GARBAGE teams.

We need a 3 obviously and Brown has Pau, Fisher, MWP in the game. How about you put in Kapono, Glock and Blake. You know the people that can make threes.

Kobe 31 shots, rest of starters: 31 shots

Pretty much what he did last night. I believe you said he "spill[ed] his damn dinner all over the floor."

LOL. Well my friend made a comment about how "Kobe eats first" and I told him "that's fine so long as Kobe doesn't spill his damn dinner all over the floor". Looks like the floor is a mess.

yea he sucked but we had a 12pt lead and lost it when he went to the bench just like last night in Detroit.
don't u have anything bad to say about this damn bench?

Our defense had a little malfunction tonight.

I'm looking forward to James' reaction.

Phil Jackson

Kobe has been having more and more of these horrible shooting nights... we really need to contain his play within the team context when it's not happening

Worthy RAGE incoming.

This must be the all season low, we just lost to the Wizards

Yeah...something HAS to be done after this...

If not, Mitch's a** needs to be let go...Jerry needs to snatch his s*** back from his idiot son...and/or Mike Brown needs to be shown the door.

The lead was lost when he shot 9 for 30.

The bench lost the lead.

I wouldn't necessarily blame Mitch because it seems that Jim is in charge on what moves Mitch can/can't do.

Why is everyone pointing fingers at the LA FO and Brown? I find it hard to believer it's Kupchak's fault the Lakers blew a 21 point lead against the Wizards. From what most folks are saying, Kobe went full retard and started chucking like Iverson.

Will there be a major shake up in the staff or trade soon? If not, it will be more than pathetic to hear the front office apologies at the end of the year to the season ticket holders... lmao... right now this team is in the dumpster because everyone knows it's defense and road records that win championships and that is the mission statement of the Lakers org... good night...

I'm blaming everyone.

fo please do something . oh by the way kobe 9 for 31 , yeah that s right 9 for 31 . all damn jumpshots he isn t mixing his game up like he was in the first 3 games after all star break. he isn t even looking to take it more inside. normally he is a intelligent player but in the last games he is absolut the opposite from that. and do you really think this current lakers team has a real chance to beat okc, dallas or san antonio on the road . and do you really think they would beat the heat in full strenghts . right now i don t think so.

Kobe happened.

WRONG. Kobe is NOT the reason the Lakers lost the lead, he was sitting on the bench when that happened.
It was more like this: Kobe (and solid play from most of the others) gave the lakers the lead, the bench & bynum lost it, and Kobe's AWFUL shooting + POOR defense from EVERYONE was the reason they couldn't get the lead back.
Still, the actual losing of the lead wasn't his fault. I'm not making excuses for him, to me he was the zero, but saying he cost the team the lead is just plain false.

Wow. Pathetic. Lakers are just too funny.

In all fairness Kobe missed a lot of shots but the second stretch by the bench killed us. Bynum turned it over a couple of times and nobody else hit a shot in about a 4 minute stretch in the 3rd... Kobe was on the bench at that time. If we even scored 6 points over that stretch we win IMO regardless of Kobe's shooting.

that was after the lakers had lost the lead, or at least after it had been cut to like 2pts. He didn't lose the lead, he cost the team the chance to get it back.

Glad Worthy just said it: "Mike Brown has to do something."

Good luck with that...
