I believe that the Lakers loss to the Bobcats is a revelation of a soft team. You can just see how easily the Bobcats tear down the Lakers defense every time and cannot compete on a very high physical level and rumble and tumble type of game. Lakers have always been a finesse type of team and until they develop some fangs and horns they won’t win the championship.

After Bynum dominates Jefferson tonight I think it will put to rest those snub comments out of Minny

Well, I certainly want Delonte to play like an All Star, he was another one of my last fantasy picks, his injury is killing me.

Hey. For all of you that got all i a tizzy by Bill Simmon’s comments about Drew:

Andrew (Los Angeles,CA): Did you write your mag column before Andrew Bynum was named Western Conference Player of the Week and dropped 42 on Los Clippers? Have your thoughts changed on his ceiling or his contract extension?

SportsNation Bill Simmons: It’s funny you should ask. They changed my magazine deadline (which sucks for me from a “timing” standpoint) – I now hand in my column on Wednesdays the week before the issue comes out… which means it makes it online 7 days later and on the newsstands 2 days after that.

SportsNation Bill Simmons: So my biggest fear was that Durant was going to score 60 on the Clips 2 days after I handed it in and ruin my angle. Little did I know, THAT NIGHT, I went to Clips-Lakers and Bynum out up a 42-15 (on Skinner and Jordan, but still). Then he looked great against Duncan on Sunday. I’d say Bynum is now properly rated. I was really impressed by him in person.

So, in Shaq’s interview with Stephen A., he says IF he, Kobe, and Phil stayed together they would’ve won 6-7 Chips. Easily. then, he won’t answer Stephen A.’s question about what IF [Kobe would've done for him that wasn't being done in Miami, and is not being done in Phoenix], because he doesn’t *believe* in IFs. Okay?

Gotta love him.

Released from hospital Thursday night, but still not cleared to travel back to Charlotte. I’m glad he’s better, and I hope he recovers soon.

127 – How could you call for replacing Rashard Lewis on the All-Star roster with Kevin Durant, who isn’t even in the same conference?

That’s like Jeff Van Gundy’s Sunday statement that Bynum should be the backup Eastern Conference All-Star center because he’s from New Jersey. I’m sure Van Gundy was kidding…
