NBA Thread

I know the schedule has been easier over the last week for the Lakers, but I find it very odd that the Lakers are winning games without Kobe. Coincidence???? I think not.

In watching this team play with and without Kobe, they are now playing like a team and feel as though they matter to the team. When Kobe is on the floor, it seems like everyone just stands around and watches his take shot after shot. Now, the team is moving without the ball, rebounding the basketball, playing hard and working together.

There is no doubt that Kobe is the best player on this team, but for the well being of the team, I hope Kobe is learning a little something about his teammates while he is on the sidelines. He really could learn some things that will not only help the Lakers, but that will help his own game as well.

 

Well Kobe is the best player on the team but, they also have some good players. Like Odom,Butler,Atkins etc. Kobe being out for 2 weeks means that players have to step up their game. Thats what happend.The Lakers stepped up their game and now they are winning games. Plus they are beating the teams they should beat. Also Devean George is out with injury. When he comes back this team can go from 6th to 4th. George was a good player. He could really help this team.The Lakers are a playoff team.
