2012 Los Angeles Lakers Thread

[C47]

Lakers survive thanks to a great performance by the Big Three despite a HUGE game from Steph Curry. Unfortunately they may have lost the war. In the fourth Kobe went down and it looked awfully similar to when Billups tore his achilles last year. Hope that's not the case, but if it is D'Antoni should be relieved of his duties tomorrow....

Kobe is EASILY the toughest player in the NBA. My god. He gave his body out there to win tonight. It took him three different injuries to leave the game.. and that's only because he was forced. I am just happy that the others stepped up in Kobe's absence. Very bittersweet indeed.

Lakers win!

What news of Kobe's Achilles???????????

Just that Mike D'Antoni ran him into the ground the last seven games. Dude is a fuging joke doesn't give a poo about the health of anyone on the team other than Nash....

50-16 hahahahahahahahahaha

Dwight Howard had 22 of those FTS which isn't far fetched. Anytime he catches the ball near the basket he gets fouled because he can't shoot them. Not to mention when you're jacking up threes at the rate GSW is you're not going to get trips to the line....

There are so many reasons Antonni needs to go, playing Kobe 48 minutes night before last just another nail i the coffin.

24 played 45 minutes tonight before he broke down.

Why you cant look at an older team like the Spurs and understand how Poppovich tries to protect them is a mystery.

Jim Buss, wake up.

He has his head too far up his own ass. Jeanie really should have been left in control of the Basketball operations. At least she listens to the Zen Master....

Just ignore the haters. Just like they will ignore that Dwight Howard had 6-9 David Lee and 6-8 Carl Landry on him for most of the game.

Honestly if Kobe is done I'm done. I can't watch the NBA without Kobe.

[Kevin Greene]

Phil Jackson's last year in Los Angeles Kobe averaged under 34 minutes per game.

Phil, Brian Shaw, anybody???????

[Kevin Greene]

Come home.

[C47]

fug I would take some of those kids in the AT&T commercials over D'Antoni. At least they would probably understand you don't ask a 17 year Vet to play just about every minute of every game for two weeks straight....

[C47]

I have no doubts that Kobe will be back, the question is how long will it take....
