I wish someone got in their faces a little bit. After such a pathetic effort I didn't like watching Lamar smiling on the bench.

Not worried. This will just fire up the Lakeshow. |

Odom and Gasol had plenty of high percentage shots, they just got to make them.
Spurs shot extremely well tonight.
I expect Fisher to have a bounce back game. Pau really needs to step it up and Odom needs to get back to taking advantage of his matchups. I think the Spurs just had a sigh of relief that they're not gonna get swept. Game 4 is gonna be huge in deciding whether this young Laker team can develop that killer instinct. |

Either is the Spurs bouncing back! Game 4 will be a war as Kobe will bring it all that game. |
this fool is back .... where were you in game 2 |
That fool should be banned. What a (bleep) moron. |
It seems the cockroaches have come back out. Amazing that they wait until there's a 20 point lead with 2-3 minutes left to rear their ugly heads. |
He was more careful this time! (bleep) douchebag _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

I don't know about killer instinct. Do you really think Gasol and Lamar can develop that? It's not like they're rookies.
When you don't have it you just don't have it. |

You're right... It was when there was about a minute left when he appeared. |

and we want them to play that way. % for those shots won't be that high at the end of a tight game. we've got to cut down on their lane incursions and keep the game close at the end of the game to have a chance to steal 1.
now it's up to the coaching staff to make the right adjustments (plays & rotations) for the next game. _________________ #2 Lonzo

Yeah, Lamar and Gasol missed a bunch of layups, but considering their height it's a sin to not be able to take HARD to the hoop and at least get fouled.
That I will never understand. That tells me they're soft. My opinion. |

Manu was huge tonight. He gave Spurs the much needed lift. Kudos to him. Hope we can contain him better next game. |

The adjustments by the Spurs:
- Play one-on-one defense at every position
- Give Kobe room to make him a jump shooter. He may score, but no assists
- Give Odom room to make him a jump shooter
- Play tight on Fisher. Since he's a jump shooter, he's not effective
The key is that Pau has to punish the one-on-one and Odom has to bury the medium J.
We have to move a ton more both with the ball and without. We allowed the D to take us out of our game as opposed to adjust and attack.
Odom and Fish are the keys. They have decent games and we're tied with the Spurs. |

Manu and Parker finally showed up, he killed us in the beginning with those threes. |

Well learn from this game, and the Spurs won't shoot this well again. Only a day between games will be a big factor in this game. If we don't get it done tomorrow, we'll get it done in 6.
Let's go LAKERS!!! |

Why didn't Odom just dunk the balls when he was right under the baskets? |

That made no sense. He was the main and often the only factor tonight. |

We were playing well in the beginning. Then Ginobili came on and was unstoppable. Add to that Lamar missing lay up after lay up and 5 freethrows missed and that's when they got the lead. |

Look at the highlights and watch Lamar and Pau on defense. NONE. |

great point made by Kenny.
The Lakers have been down by 20 points in two games thus far. That's a big worry. |

Happy Memorial Day guys.
I pray that the Lakers give us a much better effort the next game or I honestly believe we're in trouble.

No the 1st game was meaningless. The Lakers had a lot of rust to shake off and SAS was in rhythm for their Game 7. |

Do you realize that the Spurs can win every home game and lose? |

When you don't have it you just don't have it. |
Odumb is too busy worrying about where his next bong hit is coming from. |
