Javaris needs to finish better when he gets in the lane.

Develop a floater in the lane

This team can't even make an inbounds pass. :disagree:

revgen · by **revgen** on Sat Jul 14, 2007 4:19 pm

Well at least we're only down by single digits this time.

Great finish by Javaris

solenstyle · by **solenstyle** on Sat Jul 14, 2007 4:54 pm

Farmar is on a stealing spree

Awesome job by both Farmar and Javaris. Coby hasn't done much in this one.

DALakeshow · by **DALakeshow** on Sat Jul 14, 2007 5:03 pm

Lakers going a little away from the triangle offense and using Javaris at he top of the key and running high screens for him.

This is what i wanted to see.

This is kinda of how Miami uses Wade and how we use Kobe in 4th quarters

solenstyle · by **solenstyle** on Sat Jul 14, 2007 5:19 pm

83-81 pistons

9 sec left, pistons ball

update; Lakers lose

DALakeshow · by **DALakeshow** on Sat Jul 14, 2007 5:23 pm

I think we found our Barbosa off the bench

Critt

java >>>>>>>> farmar, they better not trade java he looks like a star

In terms of scoring and athleticism... yes

Farmar can run the offense better than Critt right now. Critt has the potential since he's bigger and all, but I like Farmar's floor leadership and his passes.

and Farmar can always develop his jump shot

DALakeshow · by **DALakeshow** on Sat Jul 14, 2007 5:39 pm

Critt had to get aggressive because we were down by double digits

He has the ability to take over a game

Id like to see Critt in the game at the same time with Lamar and Kobe

"Crit, "I am falling in love with your game. Keep it up. It only gets harder come TC.

Absolutely love this guy. I'll give you this one Mitchell.

Go Lakers!

Damn, I missed the last 2 games in a row. :man10:

Sounds like Javaris played a hell of a game (again). Can't wait to watch it.

I hate saying this and I'm gonna say it anyway, Critt looks like Dwade to me, similar size, the easy athleticism, the great handle and crossover, maybe a more reliable jumper at an earlier stage. But he plays that sorta game.

Not saying he's that god et but he plays that way.

He's gonna be a really good one. I think alot of idiot GM's missed on this kid. I'm very glad Mitch took him even though we drafted a pg last season.

Critt can play the classic combo guard although he has major pg skills. When he hits the floor with other great players like Kobe and Odom he could be outstanding if he maintains his aggressiveness.

But Farmar is completely stuck it seems to me, He plays far too tenative still. he has the talent to be a good one as well but he's playing like he's the Rook and Critt's been in the league a season.

Farmar isn't tenative. I don't know how you get that idea. Farmar is a pass-first PG. Period. And he's very good at creating for others. Much better than Critter anyway. He's also IMO a better defender. Not much better, but noticeable.

Critter is a guard with all-around talent, but he seems to use his scoring talent more than his passing and creating abilities.

Farmar may not be as talented as Critter, but he's more of a PG than Critter is. He's more authoritative when he's on the court and is better at managing the team and creating for others.

He had 5 points, 6 assists, 1 TO, and 4 steals. He was basically the creator and defender for the team today and let Critter and Brandon Gay score.
