“Had they hit a few of their open threes, that game would have been a blowout. ”

Uh, yeah, that’s been their problem all year long. That’s why the Lakers gave them those threes, because they can’t hit them.

And yeah, we need more touches inside...always Motoman, having seen most of the games this year I can say that was not one of the prettier performances, but I think it is telling when a team has an off night and can still win with ease.

That spells lockdown defense to me. Don't know about you. Defensive rebounding was a black eye, so was outside shooting. But how do you argue with holding a team under 90 ? 175) They held the bulls under 90 points. That spells lockdown defense to me. Don’t know about you.

There should be a resource where I can watch these old games so it has meaning to me. Yeah I've heard of Jerry West, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, but I haven't seen them in action. I can catch some highlights on Youtube, but they don't tell a story. NBA needs to release these archives in a way that the public can freely access it. It's the best way to honor these Hall of Famers.. I was born in 1980 and any records prior to that time are pretty much meaningless to me.

I have to say, I was not all that impressed with the way the Lakers played. I realize Kobe had a mismatch and he was taking advantage of it, but to me he looked like the old Kobe. Not the facilitator I thought he had become these past two years. We were suppose to have an advantage inside but Pau and Byum did not get enough touches. What happened to our “lock down defense” ? One game I know, but I thought I was going to see a different Laker team last night. Being an east coast guy BUT a Laker fan, I was able to see my first Laker game from start to finish last night.
