| Most of the Lakers stunk. The only two that showed some skills was Ariza and Rad. But all of the rest were simply terrible. If they keep on playing like they did tonight? I am afraid they are not going very far this season with the big three. Odom again played terrible, and having Bynum and Gasol in at the same time seems to me like they need lots of practice. Kobe does not look sharp at all and Coby Karl missed every shot he took. Looks like D League for him. Or maybe the Clippers are better then we give them credit for. |

| I agree. Ariza started a little slow, but definetly brought the energy in the second half. Vladi was on fire. lamar was pretty horrible. and i think Kobe has been gone for these two games. |

i wouldnt say i m worry... tho i must say i m a lil concern.
maybe our expectation was a lil too high?
team defense, team offense, coby karl...
andrew been holding the ball way too long for my taste,
and the offense just isnt as fluid as it needs to be;
and dont start me with turnovers...
yes, tis just preseason,
but i just hope they will get their acts together
and dont develope any bad habits early on in the season... |

| Rust is one thing; lack of effort and pride is quite another. I have been a Laker fan-atick for years. And rarely have I seen a guy who clearly doesn;t want to be on the floor as much as LO. He clearly would rather be playing in the Woreld Series of Poker. Or in a denitist's chair. It is not that this guy looks lost, he looks peeved that he had to ruin his day by playing with the Lakers. The rest of the guys were rusty. LO just did not want to be there. Period. Lack of effort and lack of pride your name is Lamar Odom. |

Very fine game. We kept it close to the very end. Great presence by the entire team in ballhandling allowed us to have almost no turnovers. One of our best defensive efforts ever.
Seriously, maybe it comes with the territory of having seen so many Laker campaigns, but I just do not care about preseason scores. It is no wonder that every doormat in the League tries to win these preseason games because they know that it is either now, or never! This is the time that we use every year to experiment. If we go winless in the preseason, I just could not care less. We will be ready when the games start to count, and that is the only thing that I care about. |

As always, you give me a ray of hope Cuckoo. LOL  But seriously, I do hope that these losses will enable our players to learn from their mistakes so that the wins will come rolling in the regular season. |

| We'll be fine. Experimentation in the pre-season is a must. That is all we are doing. Come regular season we will be the most dangerous team in the league. |

| The Clippers have some sharp shooters. I only have seen one Laker making some perimeter shots, and that is Rad. Maybe when THE MACHINE comes back the Lakers will light up the score board. |
