Not going to give up till I see Ariza and Reeves getting action: I believe a shortend lineup of AD/Dwight/lebron/Ariza/Melo/Reeves/Russ/THT/Monk...
I don't think his conditioning is there. Before he got hurt he was able to get to the rim pretty easily against good defensive teams like...
Kings went really at him. Give the guy credit as he fought but he's got limititions
I thought he played a good game particularly defensively against the Kings A couple of bull in a china shop plays but otherwise thought he should...
Need to cut DJ and Bradley so Vogel won't play them.
Don't worry the Lakers will find HBL next: Hillbilly Lebron from West Virginia (hopefully he looks like Jerry West as well)
Not being a midget on defense like Ellington/Bradley/Monk is also helpful. Those 3 look small and play small on defense

Title hopes all lie in Ariza being serviceable lol. Hell I believe he's better then freakin batum and that's what we're asking of him
The carry call was stupid as hell but otherwise was pretty good. Don't know why sometimes he's just looks so lost on D and other times like today...
I think his thumb is bothering him personally: he's airballing layups we've seen him make with ease the last few years
Lebron is still an MVP caliber player; with all the injuries probably the only thing that matters. His 3 point shooting is consistently gotten...
Young kid trying to prove he's worth the contract, just missed a whole bunch of time, and seeing his team struggle including other injuries?
[MEDIA] And this makes the most sense
As an old guy still playing ball I'll only give Lebron a pass here. Some days its just takes awhile for everything to loosen up lol
And the streak continues: bad game for Melo, we lose
2 good games from him (or at least 2 really good halves)
3 things: I think another pointed out that playing him at SF is hurting him. He's a natural 2 who can switch Also teams are now...
This is the most obvious thing about this season is the Lakers don't have anyone who can bring what Ariza can theoretically can bring a 3 and D...
Seems pretty close. I'd like to see what this team looks like in 5 games with Reaves, Ariza, THT, and Lebron back. I'm not buying or have sold...
