Quoted from Mr.Odchimar
"Lakers is still a Kobe Bryant show. Where's the team?"http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore;_ylt=A2KIPFNjiBBKK_8AcAC8vLYF?gid=2009051713The Lakers blew out the Rockets from the get go despite a sucky game from Lamar Odom and Kobe shooting 33% from the field and scoring only 14 points.
You ask where's the team?
Bynum had 14 and 6 in 22 minutes.
Gasol had 21 and 18
Ariza had 15 and 5 in 28 minutes.
Vujacic had 9 in 20 minutes
Fisher, Farmar, Brown and Walton all played quality minutes.
You know what's scary Sir? While the Lakers played great in that game.. that's not even half of what this team is capable of. They turned the ball over 19 times, they shot 46 percent from the field and shot 33 percent from 3. And they STILL blew out the Rockets by 19 (Houston needed a late game 12-0 run to even come as close as that) if Denver does that against the Rockets? I don't think Denver could even win.
That's the difference between the two teams that I'm talking about. Once the Lakers gets their gamefaces on, it's only a matter of time.
