It's time for a good old fashioned closed door shouting session.

That was a crying shame. Gave the Hawks how many points?

wake up. This is so sad

We have the best player in NBA. A likely MVP winner but he won't win because our GM can't create a winning team

WE are 500.

What a job. kupcake

I don't remember another Lakers team in the last 20 years that had so little heart, so little desire and almost no pride. I can't imagine what Kobe must be thinking having to play with this bunch of bums.

When it gets this bad, all we should do is laugh.

Getting mad at these sort of losses only makes it harder to want to watch again.

What can we do? They are young, dumb and have no idea how to win ballgames.

Shouting session? Kwame will just miss his next 32429423 field goals if he gets yelled at. Man I don't know what stinks more. The defense or crap.

I'll tell you guys one thing. The Lakers for some reason thought they could just kick the Hawks ass and got a surprise. You see how they were stylin and clown'n the Hawks in the first quarter. They somehow became full of themselves and, apparently said (bleep) defending these people can't stay with us.

I hope the Lakers are running laps right now! Make em run till Friday and stop every 2 minutes and shoot freethrows!!!!

Well, I hate to say this. But Kobe isn't going to be playing for us after '08. If this team doesn't start picking it up. I can say that in 2008 His opting year. That he will opt out and go somewhere else.

There's NO excuse for poor defense. It's all effort. When you sit back and continually WATCH a team get in to their offense with NO pressure on the ball , you deserve to get your butts handed to you. It looked like the Lakers were at the All Star Game already. No effort, no defense,no heart, no victory. What's up??????? We are going no where fast. Who the hell is in control??? Doesn't look like anyone is. Here's your 10 mil Phil. I bought someone's season tickets for this month. Now I'm an idiot. Real embarrasing show tonight.

Absolutely pathetic. I'm beginning to hate some of these guys. I don't normally make angry posts after losses but this is just ridiculous. Lay up after lay up after a lay up, while we stupidly shoot 3 after 3 after 3. I'm flat out angry. I'm sick of watching the same crap over and over and over.

Where is the coaching? Do we have a game plan other than shooting the 3. Where is the D? Aside from the first quarter of the Utah game, we haven't been playing solid defense for weeks now. How can the team, this deep into the season, still be so inept at team defense? Literally painful to watch. It's hard to root for a team that, one or two players aside, plays with such little heart. This was an embarassment.

And I'm tired of this "the schedule gets easier" stuff. I have absolutely zero faith in this team's abillity to win games that they should. They've proven over and over that they don't have the heart or desire pounce on mediocre teams. Losses like this keep piling up - and, really, what's to make us think they won't - and the season ends early, just like last year.

In a way this is worse than last year because this debacle is robbing Kobe of his MVP season.

OK, my rant is over.

Everyone tonight was responsible. I hope they feel like garbage and let this stick in their memories, so that they realize that you don't quit during the game and wait until late to make a push to comeback. I'm surprised that Phil didn't at least try Ronny out there for long minutes, cos the rest of the frontline was being lazy as (bleep).
