pac, Lakers beat the Spurs and lost to Dallas on the second game of a back to back. Tonight's loss was a lesson in matchups that highlighted a big hole where Odom and Kwame used to be. I have no fear for the playoffs, assuming we're healthy.
You're showing your lack of Laker knowledge when you say Bynum should get more minutes than Kwame. Phil Jackson doesn't play that way. Sure, the kid is doing great, but Kwame does better and will retain his starting role once he is healthy.
powerclown, I expected it. I don't know what it is with people outside of LA, but somehow the media has failed to communicate the drive that Kobe has for winning. Its not a reckless "I am the best and I can just will this to happen" mentality.. no way. Kobe is humbled in that sense... he's intense, but he listens when people talk. He now shows that he doesn't need to pour in 40 points every night to be the best player on the planet. Its great to watch and cheer for. Cause he still makes shots that nobody else on the planet can.
