You would rather they have Mbenga instead of Sacre? |

| Randle played well to finish the game. The player that worries me most is Hill, he has not looked like the energizer rebound machine that he used to be. |

I dont know of anyone in the league that can just overpower Speights; he's a brick wall. |

We need Swaggy and Kobe hasn't attempted one yet.

| the last game i felt good about the team. nash being out makes a difference. lin did ok but for this team to make the playoffs nash has to play and lin run 2nd unit. also need a real big man. |

Hill honestly should be going against the 2nd unit of the other team. Ed Davis should be starting and getting most of the center minutes. |

It tells me what i always say about him. He's so skilled that eventually he's going to succeed out there. He'll have an off game, or off half, but eventually his moves will work because they're legit moves. PFs can't stay with this guy. any of them. period. Green is one of the quickest PFs in the league and Randle got a step on him whenever he tried. |

Randle pushed him like 5 feet is what we were referring to. Then lay'd it up on him. U see it? |

| I'm going to be honest this team looked a lot better when Kobe and Nash were with the first unit. Kobe and Lin was too much iso kobe posting up offense which limited ball movement. And our 2nd unit got affected by Lin not being there to be the pg. The 2nd unit looked lost out there today. Ronnie price is not a good backup pg. |

| mac the hack in full excuse mode. it was the 1's vs the 3's that made the lakers suck in the 3rd quarter so much. |

| Agreeing with the general consensus that Lin or Nash should be on the floor at all times. There should be no excuse that neither of those guys are on the court, EVER! Unless in a 30 point blow out. |

| i agree. there was one time during the game lakers were playing well with lin and kobe on floor, kobe got 2 steals and they were fast breaking and things got fluid, then then the reserves came in played ok a few mins then things just fell apart. |

Well, Nash should rest some back to back games. When Clarkson comes back, he and randle will start to lead the 2nd unit! Ed davis should really start over Hill though |

Yeah I know. I was just giving my analysis. Never did I say that the lakers are a finished product. It's what we have to improve upon. |

| Not sure if I like Clarkson and Randle in there at the same time. They both make bad decisions right now. |

Lin started in place of Nash today. Coach Scott seems to be keeping starting unit and backup units separate for the time being. Hopefully Nash will play Sunday so we can see more of the Davis Lin connections! |

| I know it's just preseason but I didn't know what I was watching. They seemed a bit lost, esp. the young players. Double team decisions led to open uncontested shots...I think the team is still searching for an answer... |

Why was he bossing up on him? Give Barnes and his shaky shot space. |

This is what you use the preseason for. Trying out different lineups and see which pieces fit. |
