Bynum is not doing his work early to establish his defensive position, as Kobe once instructed Bynum to do in another game.

I wish Kurt Rambis would tell Bynum to punish anyone who drives the lane on the Lakers, the way Rambis used to do.

How the hell is Derek Fisher still a starter in the NBA?

Can't play D, doesn't take charges anymore, can't dribble drive, can't make layups.

They don't look focused tonight.

Same old crap tonight.

Boston is gonna kill the Lakers Xmas day.

Pretty simple, he can shoot the rock.

Pretty much. 3rd in 3 point percentage (47.4%) and 4th in free throw percentage (93.2%)

Farmar is at 32.8% and 64.3% and is even worse on D than Fish. Fish's A/TO ratio (3.90 also 4th in the league) is also more than twice as good as Farmar's.


Sasha, Ariza and Fisher are 2, 3, and 4 in the league in STL/TO ratio.

If you were Kupchak, who would you acquire to improve the Lakers?

Defensive PG with decent range? A defensive and rebounding SF? in exchange for whom on the current roster?

They are absolutely pathetic.

They continuously give opponents open looks from the perimeter.
