Published: January 5, 2013
LOS ANGELES — One Los Angeles team has a majestic tradition, the other a history that is essentially comic. But after the Clippers held on for a 107-102 victory over the Lakers on Friday, they found themselves 10 games ahead of Kobe Bryant’s club in the standings, as good a symbol as any other of how much has changed so quickly in this city’s basketball landscape.
It is the Clippers who have had a 17-game winning streak this season and who find themselves being compared by Bryant to the storied Lakers Showtime teams of the 1980s, heady stuff for a franchise that was a national symbol of ineptitude for so many seasons. It is the Lakers who look old, an assessment that a frustrated Bryant has reinforced with pointed comments as his team has continued to reside in the lower tier of the Western Conference, with a record that is now two games below .500. |

| Quote: | Howard says difference between Lakers, Clippers is 'they share ball'
By Royce Young | Blogger
January 5, 2013 2:22 pm ET
Sometimes, we're all a little guilty of reading too much between the lines, trying to pick something up from an otherwise harmless quote.
But with what Dwight Howard said following the Lakers' 107-102 loss to the Clippers on Friday, it's kind of hard not to make an assumption. Via the Associated Press:
"Look at the difference between our team and theirs," Howard said. "They just play together. They share the ball. Everybody's excited when something happens. We have to be like that to be a great team."
The Lakers are 15-17 and 0-2 against the Clippers, so the frustration is to be expected.
But let's look into that quote from Howard. He plays with Steve Nash, who is one of the best creators and assisters (?) of all time. Pau Gasol is renowned for his splendid passing skills as a big man and one of the most unselfish players in the league. And who cares about Metta World Peace, Jodie Meeks or whoever else, because they're not involved offensive weapons.
So that leaves, well, you know who that leaves. |

| Quote: | Lakers reassign Robert Sacre to D-Fenders
By Eric Pincus
January 5, 2013, 10:34 a.m.
The Lakers have reassigned center Robert Sacre to the D-Fenders.
Sacre, taken with the 60th and final pick of the 2012 NBA draft, will join the Lakers' D-League affiliate for the third time this season. In three games for the D-Fenders, Sacre averaged 7.7 points and 9.7 rebounds.
The Lakers still have rookie Darius Johnson-Odom in the D-League. Through 11 games he's leading the D-Fenders with 21.1 points a game while shooting 43.8% from the field and 39.6% from three-point range. He's also averaging 5.3 assists and 1.4 steals.
The D-Fenders play the Sioux Falls Skyforce on Saturday night in El Segundo. |

| Quote: | The Lakers continue to overlook Pau Gasol in their offense
By Eric Pincus
January 5, 2013, 7:22 a.m.
The Lakers lost to the Clippers, 107-102, Friday night in what might have been Pau Gasol's worst game with the team.
Gasol, in 27 minutes, scored only two points on one-of-six shooting. In a game the Lakers lost by five points, the Clippers outscored the Lakers by 20 when Gasol was on the floor.
While he certainly carries much of the responsibility for his poor performance, some of the lack of output can be attributed to how Gasol is being used by Coach Mike D'Antoni. Just a few games ago, the Lakers were using Gasol to initiate the offense from the elbow, a workable compromise for an All-Star who has spent most of his career scoring in the low post.
In a five-game span Gasol averaged more than five assists a night. Against the Clippers, Gasol was the forgotten man.
"It's difficult sometimes, because it's not up to me to get involved," said Gasol who is happy to play from near the elbow. "I get more involved and I can make more plays from there." |

| Quote: | JILL PAINTER on THE LAKERS: Furious comeback still can't mask that this team is slow, old
By Jill Painter, columnist
Posted: 01/04/2013 10:43:24 PM PST
Updated: 01/04/2013 10:44:13 PM PST
The Lakers are supposed to use this next five-game stretch against playoff teams to determine their playoff mettle.
They needed only this game against the Clippers to determine what we've already known:
You can't make old young.
The Lakers mounted a furious comeback after falling behind early, but they couldn't contain the young, fast, confident Clippers.
Chris Paul made the dagger shots and free throws down the stretch, and the Clippers made good on making the Lakers look as old and slow as they are as the Clippers edged the Lakers, 107-102 Friday at Staples Center.
Bryant scored 38 points, and you know what happens when he scores 30-plu points. The Lakers usually lose. Paul had 30 points, 13 assists, six rebounds and scored the final eight points for the Clippers, who have proven yet again that they're the better team in town.
With Pau Gasol benched most of the fourth quarter, until Dwight Howard fouled out and there was no choice but to put the ineffective Gasol back in late in the game. Gasol finished with two points and four rebounds. |

| Quote: | Kobe Bryant speaks his mind about the Lakers
Bryant has said the Lakers are old and that they look like they're stuck in mud.

There's not much Coach Mike D'Antoni can do if Kobe Bryant speaks his mind.
Listen. Nod accordingly. Move on.
Bryant has said the Lakers are old, that they look like they're stuck in mud. Hey, he's right most nights.
Chris Paul, Clippers steal some Showtime and beat Lakers, 107-102

"He's colorful and he says stuff," D'Antoni said Friday. "He won five titles, you've got a right to say a lot of things. But he's all about winning and trying to perform at his highest level so as a coach, you just appreciate it."
D'Antoni added that he would "much rather get into a foxhole with somebody like that."
Bryant has been more open and friendly with reporters this season, perhaps a sign of maturity. Or maybe he's just telling the truth about his frustration with the team that has employed him for 17 years.
Bryant didn't pause this week when asked whether there was any improvement on the Lakers.
"What are we doing better? Interviews, probably," he said, receiving laughter from reporters.
Despite the Lakers' struggles and the now semi-deflated expectations, Bryant didn't dismiss this season. |

| Quote: | The Orlando Magic don't intend to pursue Dwight Howard in free agency
Josh Robbins | Orlando Sentinel
4:30 p.m. EST, January 4, 2013
The Orlando Magic won’t attempt to convince Dwight Howard to rejoin their team when Howard becomes a free agent in July, an NBA source with knowledge of the Magic’s thinking told the Orlando Sentinel.
Magic officials are said to believe it’s too soon to try to bring back Howard after the acrimonious eight months between his Dec. 2011 trade request and the deal that sent him to the Los Angeles Lakers.
There would be plenty of stumbling blocks to a return to the Magic, anyway.
First, the Magic won’t have the salary-cap space to sign Howard outright to a maximum-level deal. Orlando, with some maneuvering, could get down to about $14.5 million under the projected cap figure for the 2013-14 season, but that wouldn’t be enough.
So, the only way the Magic could acquire Howard would be through a sign-and-trade deal. Such a deal could be worth, at most, almost $87 million over four seasons.
The Dallas Mavericks should be far enough under the cap to be able to sign Howard outright to a four-year, $87-million deal.
The Lakers will be the only team that will be able to offer Howard a five-year deal — a deal that could top out at around $117 million — assuming, of course, that the Lakers don’t trade him before the Feb. 21 trade deadline.
Howard is eligible to sign a contract extension now, but Howard’s agent, Dan Fegan, said several months ago that Howard will test free agency. |

| Quote: | Pau Gasol: I won't request trade
Updated: January 5, 2013, 10:58 AM ET
By Dave McMenamin | ESPNLosAngeles.com
LOS ANGELES -- After he endured his fourth benching in the fourth quarter since Mike D'Antoni was hired as coach, there is no denying Los Angeles Lakers forward Pau Gasol is having a hard time fitting in with the team he once helped win two championships.
The Lakers ultimately could decide they just can't make it work with the former four-time All-Star; however, it won't be Gasol pushing his way out of town.
"No, oh, that's radical," Gasol said when asked whether he would request a trade following the Lakers' 107-102 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday. "I still believe. I still have faith in what we have. I still have faith that I can be a big part in helping this team succeed. Right now, I'm not being able to do that very often."
Gasol finished with just two points on 1-for-6 shooting along with four rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes against the Clippers. He sat the entire fourth quarter until Dwight Howard fouled out with 1:07 remaining and Gasol finished off the game in his stead.
D'Antoni said the benching had "nothing" to do with the plantar fasciitis and knee tendinitis that have plagued the 32-year-old Gasol this season.
"He just didn't have a good game," D'Antoni said. |

no, the difference is the clippers can hang onto the ball when it's passed to them!

The ball is shared PLENTY, Dwight. Stop fumbling it, getting stripped and making absurd post "moves." Tell Pau, Meeks and MWP to make more than 5 of 25 shots.
Ball is shared nicely. You lost because your defense in the first half was dreadful, the trio mentioned above couldn't hit the ocean from a boat. You lost because once again, your team dug a monster hole as a team then tried to crawl out of it. You lost because you didn't trust your teammate to rotate over and drew a sixth foul on a play where your teammate would have blocked Paul.
You didn't lose because the ball wasn't shared, jerkwater.

| Quote: | Dwight Howard talks team chemistry
Updated: January 5, 2013, 9:48 PM ET
By Ramona Shelburne | ESPNLosAngeles.com
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Dwight Howard knows a great team when he sees one. It cheers for each other on big plays, picks each other up after bad ones and plays with a chemistry you can't force. He saw a team such as that Friday night in the Lakers' 107-102 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
"Those guys on the Clippers team, they really enjoy each other off the court and it shows," Howard said Saturday after Lakers practice.
And how about the Lakers? Do they have that chemistry?
"It's something we have to do to get better," he said. "We have to play like we like each other. Even if we don't want to be friends off the court, whatever that may be, when we step in between the lines or we step in the locker room or the gym, we have to respect each other and what we bring to the table.
Howard (Chemistry is) something we have to do to get better. We have to play like we like each other. Even if we don't want to be friends off the court, whatever that may be, when we step in between the lines or we step in the locker room or the gym, we have to respect each other and what we bring to the table.
” -- Lakers center Dwight Howard
on team chemistry
"It really starts off the court. I think you have to have that relationship and that chemistry off the court for it to really blossom on the court. It takes time to develop that. You just don't come together and then expect to be best friends right away. It just doesn't happen like that." |

Of course the clippers have better team chemistry it's loaded with former lakers. Hell Lamar and butler have played on 3 separate teams together Ronny was part of the 08 finals team with Lamar, Barnes most recently with Lamar I mean damn.

The title should be "Dwight talks about how bad team chemistry is."
I see him walking at the end of the season too. Life's too short to play in a group that just doesn't work together. I shuddered after reading that article.

| Quote: | Mike D'Antoni has been a huge failure with Lakers
The Lakers have a huge problem and it's not Pau Gasol.
It's the guy who is being paid handsomely to utilize his expertise and get the most out of one of the NBA's top players.
And so far Coach Mike D'Antoni has been a huge failure.
Say what you want about Gasol being a baby at times, soft and maybe not handling things on the court as well as a pro should.
But prima donnas are a part of professional sports and Gasol has already proven himself a worthy NBA competitor.
It's the baby sitters like D'Antoni who have to get the very best out of every one of the different personalities they've been given.
When D'Antoni publicly humiliated Gasol for not being needed with the game on the line, it demonstrated a total misunderstanding of how Gasol handles such things.
It was D'Antoni's job to know better before pulverizing a fragile Gasol.
I'm sure Gasol's knees did hurt, but as Lakers coach, D'Antoni needed Gasol to get off to a good start after fans were left disappointed with Phil Jackson not getting the job.
And Gasol wasn't there for D'Antoni.
How much does human nature factor into a player suddenly needing time off to rest his knees? And how long before he returns?
Maybe that doesn't speak well of Gasol, if true, but what does it matter? The head coach's top priority is pushing the right buttons to maximize a player's skills.
Some folks have suggested trading Gasol because D'Antoni can't get the best out of one of the best players in the game.
Too bad it's not possible to suggest trading the coach for someone who knows talent and how to use it.
D'Antoni has spent his NBA career as a head coach trying to prove his system works. Many NBA teams have stolen aspects of his philosophy.
But he has been a failure in proving it a championship success. And when he arrived here the most casual basketball fan understood it was not a good fit.
But if D'Antoni is as good as so many have said as a coach, shouldn't he find a way to move the Xs and O's around to accommodate the talent here?
It hasn't happened yet.
Will the hiring of D'Antoni go down as one of the Lakers' all-time blunders because he was too stubborn to bend?
Gasol was a lost soul again against the Clippers on Friday night. Benched in the fourth quarter, he made a cameo appearance with 1:07 remaining because Dwight Howard fouled out.
He finished the game with two points, and it's no wonder the Lakers are 15-17.
"He just didn't have a good game," D'Antoni told the media, but couldn't the same be said about D'Antoni?
Gasol told reporters he's at his best when he plays down low and explores other areas on the court.
He said his assignment now is to hang around the free-throw line, his playing time now based on whether he makes his jump shots or misses.
It has already become apparent D'Antoni is not a great communicator. Antawn Jamison has said as much, and Gasol seems to have no idea what D'Antoni wants from him.
D'Antoni operates as if alone on an island. He said he would rather not talk to the media, but required to do so, he said, he will usually lie.
When he arrived, he did so with a light heart and a quick quip. But as he has continued to drag his repaired knee around the country, the medication by his own admission sometimes dulling his senses, he has lost that light heart and become more distant with each loss.
As head coach he remains the central spokesman for the franchise and the great hope for fans for better days ahead.
But he has fallen short here as well. He no longer says, "I don't know" in answer to most questions, but he has already said if he fails, he has a guaranteed contract and will be playing golf again.
It's a great attitude if designed to protect him from getting hurt again, as he was in New York after quitting.
But if he really wanted this job, so much so that he was willing to do it on a painful knee and drugs, then it was on him to build a relationship with both Lakers fans and players.
And how goes that? Do you have confidence in D'Antoni that he has a plan to fix the Lakers' woes? Do you think the players believe they are headed in the right direction?
If the answer is "no" to both questions, then the initial thought process around here that D'Antoni was the wrong answer to what puzzles the Lakers still appears to be the correct one. |

| Quote: | Kobe Bryant expresses self-doubt about end of career
By Mike Bresnahan
January 5, 2013, 1:45 p.m.
The message popped up on Twitter near midnight, not long after the Lakers lost to the Clippers.
"Thoughts of self doubt...Am I done? Is this how my career will end?? I REFUSE to give in to these thoughts. #strongwill #countonchallenges"
It was from Kobe Bryant. He didn't step back from it 12 hours later while talking to reporters after the Lakers' practice Saturday.
"Everybody has it. I'm human just like everybody else," he said. "I think the way I react to it is probably a little different than anybody else. I don't feed into it. I'm able to face it. I'm able to deal with it. I'm able to roll through it." |

Lmao.  Dwight done got to LA and smoked some of its best ohh weee. Imagine the Lakers sharing the ball the way he's talking. It would be more of a disaster than it all ready is. These guys play like your average saturday in the park team, one guy playing efficiency, while the other four are trying to figure out how to get out of the clown car. You can't speak on chemistry if you're known for blowing up the lab. Damm I wish these guys would do just one thing..... Do your own job! play the best you can. Dr Phil don't need another mouthpiece. Shut up and play. If you gotta point fingers, start with yourself. The same goes for all of your team mates and coach. The Lakers right now are panicking and talking too much. Talk never beat anyone.
