Warren, from what I gather, him going to a contending team would be a dream come true

136 and 140…

Sasha Vujacic’s value is about as low as it can be right now… buying him out just worsens the situation because you will no longer be able to trade him.

Newsflash, once he is bought out, he could very well go to a contending team as well.

Best way to go is to find a team willing to suck his salary for a TPE or atleast an expiring contract.

From Eric Pincus:
- Bynum said he knew exactly why Jackson pulled him early in the third quarter. Andrew’s job is to help on the guards on defensive rotations but he said he was sick of David Lee getting dunk. On two possessions in a row he just bodied up Lee – which wasn’t his assignment. Yes Lee is his man – but he’s got to leave him and help the guard and trust that another Laker will rotate to David.

140- Kwame- I just deleted my recording of the game. I remember Drew ignoring Lee, who gets an easy break, followed by Drew running up the court as Kobe, Pau and someone else stoof back right where they were with a sort of “WTF was that?” stance. PJ immediately calls to LO, who doesn’t look sure if PJ really wants him in before running to the sideline. Then once Drew is on the bench B.Shaw stood talking to him through a couple Knicks possessions. I assumed about defense.

What did he do to show Fish up?

The great thing though, is that if he does need to an attitude adjustment, I trust in Kobe Bryant, Derek Fisher, Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, Phil Jackson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Brian Shaw, etc. to get through to him.

The rebounding advantage was great to see. I kno the knicks are undersized but the lakers should always win the rebounding advantage. The turnovers are worrisome but the knicks force
the most turnovers in the league.

Anybody see Drew show Fish up in front of the Laker bench. Less than 2 mins into the 3rd quarter, Drew gets benched and then lectured. The thing that stunned me about the play is the way Fish and Kobe looked at Drew. Wish I knew what Drew said/did.

First time posting but 136 made me lol.

Buyout Sasha’s contract so we don’t have to see his face because no one is going to take him.

With all the criticism of Fish at the beginning of the season it is interesting to see that his play has improved as the season progressed. It may not be great comparatively to other point guards, but his stats and overall hustle is evidently better since the beginning of the season. He did pretty well again tonight with a +/- of 22. The bench guards, not so much and barely breaking 0.

Fish has been getting props from coaches while the fans continue to bash.

From the la times:
In Fisher’s eyes, it’s all about how he feels about his play, how his teammates and coaches respect what he brings every game. “I appreciate the positive, supporting fans,” Fisher said. “The negative comments, I don’t even worry about that.”

Something needs to be done about the bench guards if we are to win the ship.
