very un-Kobelike to not even get it up in time

Don't expect a trade Lionel. You know who this team's GM is right? Sure, he MAY pull the trigger. But until the trigger is pulled on that trade, don't expect it.

I kind of disagree with Stu... I think there was a period, in the second half, when we had the momentum going our way... We just don't have anyone, other than Kobe, that is aggressive enough, to step forward, and take it that extra notch, to WIN...

And there you have it..............................

Kobe waits for the game to come to him in the 1st half for the 3rd straight game (Whom ever brought that idea up is insane).....scoring only 7,8,and 7 in the 1st half in the past three games .......Allowing teams to stay close,and have a chance to win in the end.......

Kobe in strike mode from beginning to end is what needs to happen,with Cook joined to his hip....Since the 81 he is too passive at the start..... and then gets out of the flow or hot zone in the 2nd half.....Putting too much importance in his 2nd half shots......Instaed of gliding comfortably in the 2nd half...........

Instead of putting the hammer down early and breaking there backs early........I saw no passion very soft.......no sense of a must win,get back on track strong attitude......

Terrible loss,now 2 back of the Grizzlies,instead of being even....Plus out of sync as a team.......

Kobe has to get back into full on strike mode from start to finish,pick his spots sure....but for the most part go strong right frrom the get go.......

When we get that dream 07 player and or Bynum grows up.............then Kobe can play more within this so- called system.....

We suck. Simple as that. I won't be expecting a trade until I see it's official.

How about nothing is going to happen. HOw about that. Face it we have the worst (bleep) GM in the world.

Mitch really needs to pull the trigger on a trade.

Ironic that Memphis beats us 100-99 in two different games at Staples Center this season....

Make a comparison... How many consistent shooters did they have??

Gasol

Eddie

Atkins(believe it or not)

Bobby Jackson

Battier

These are steady, fundamentally sound, players, that make up a strong foundation... How many steady, experienced, fundamentally sound, players do we have??

Kobe.

Should I even remind you, that they were playing without Mike Miller, Damon Stoudamire, and Brian Cardinal??

Our lineup is just too soft, and inconsistent. I have to still give props, to Kwame, for stepping up his game.

Kobe was off tonight...get a clue. We were lucky to even be in position to win, with Kobe going 35% from the field (and that after getting "hot" in the 4th quarter).

Too much fixating on the last several plays of the game, ignoring all the possessions leading up to the end. Defense and poor shot selection was why the lakers lost tonight.

We don't know how to finish games, and it's very disappointing.
