Then again, maybe Lamar is just uncomfortable in front of the camera.

Craig W.,

Rick Fox was diagnosed with ADD when he was with the Celtics. They put him on meds and he said it helped him to focus on the game a possession at a time. He said that before, it was all a big blur. The coaches would call a play during a time out and he would get out on the floor and forget what play was called.
I think Lamar might have it. He always looks distracted in interviews, like he can’t focus.

muddywood,
I know you may have mentioned A.D.D. with some humor, but there could be something to it. It would surely explain why Lamar seems to ‘get lost’ at times in games and also why he would focus on rebounding and occasionally simply lose his man on defense.

I know, now we have started an entirely new rumor. I am sorry Lamar; I was just making an observation.

Lamar looks like he has A.D.D. in that interview.
It might explain a lot.

A defensive player(Fisher) is entitled to his own space on the floor. If Ellis wanted to get to another spot on the court, he can’t just RUN OVER the defensive player. He has to go around him.

Here is the interview with L.O. Talk about not making eye contact with the camera or John Ireland. It seemed like he wanted to demonstrate what was happening he kept moving around and using his hands.

One of the W’s announcers sounded like Lavin, totally tripped me out.

If you guys thought Lamar’s post game interview was funny, check out Kenyon Martin’s from last week:

exhelodrvr,

You’re probably right. It occurred to me that might’ve been what was going on, but no mention was made of it, and I watch pretty much every Laker game on League Pass which broadcasts exactly the local broadcast (or sometimes the road team’s). So I guess I feel kind of dumb. Doesn’t change the animosity I felt coming from the screen, though.
