Would anyone here have been happy with a win the way we played tonight? Winning has only been masking our problems. Why expend any extra effort when you can win just cruising through games?

I'd rather see this team lose the next couple of games if that's what it's going to take to get them to be serious about playing defense and playing hard each night.

Should have kicked it out to Sasha.

very creative play calling Phil, Kobe for a contested last second jumper, never saw that coming. you fooled me Phil.

Lamar missed BOTH ft's that would have been huge, and Pau just choked where he could have tied it up.

Can't make the "free" throws, can't take the W.

Oh please people, we fought like hell at the end and things just didnt go our way.

It's a shame how all you do is complain instead of actually acknowledging a few good points that have been improved compared to recent games.

Pacers, Heat, Pistons. The East Coast owns us.

bright side, the lakers played some decent defense. on the bad side, horrible decisions.

This team needs to trade weak minded players for some players who might not be as talented but can hustle and can hit FTs.

frustrating loss? maybe..but everyone has to accept the fact that this team plays down to lesser teams..and probably will for the rest of the season. Lakers can't guard the 3 ball...can't play that good of D...and they are a turnover machine..sad really.

Maybe the Lakers need to go on a four game losing streak for Mitch to see that something has got to be done, because this Laker team as it is now constructed is in no way shape or form ready to contend for a title.
