Kobe is on fire today!

Great to see Damian Lillard with consistent numbers. Glad to have him on my team in a deep 18-team fantasy league.

That's when you need a good coach -- execution of game winning plays. Anyway, pretty decent game by the Lakers. I don't mind losing like that.

Wizards seem like they're gunning for a perfect record- a 0-82 record

boredfilmmaker · « **Reply #2472 on:** Nov 14, 2012 at 02:03 PM »

that wasn't a bad game for the Lakers.. they had no decent PG the whole game.. only Kobe clicked offensively and yet they just lose by 2pts to the currently best team in the West.. if they made a few more FTs, they would have won.. that loss was nowhere near their previous ones.. they're clearly on the right path now..

Agree. Glad to see the ol' LA playing smooth again. Not like the first 5 games where they played like the Laguna Lakers!

I knew it would either be Green or Parker for the shot. Great shot. On the other end, Jamison could've been the hero for the Lakers -- 3 pt shot off a nice feed from Mamba. Good game indeed. Loved it.

Lakers had no decent PG, had 17 turnovers and had poor shooting night. And yet Spurs won only by 2 points ( Lakers could've won ). So not bad. Not bad at all.

puro na lang buzzerbeater ang panalo ng Spurs.

Munskie · « **Reply #2480 on:** Nov 14, 2012 at 03:41 PM »

This is a loss I could take. The only things thats not good in this loss are the TOs. Then again, both their PGs are out. Kobe playing so far the most efficient season in his carreer. Good misdirection play on that Green 3 by GP. Metta and pau both had clean looks, but couldnt sink game winners. All good despite the loss.

DVD_Freak · « **Reply #2481 on:** Nov 14, 2012 at 06:30 PM »

Lakers have the best center in basketball. Arguably the best two guard as well. They likewise have a premier player at the 4. The Spurs only had a clear advantage at the point. But the PG position was never a position of strength for the Lakers in years. Even w/ Blake or Nash on the floor, Parker would still get his shots. It has always been the bigs and Kobe.

Lakers were at home. Lakers actually shot better from the field. Had a rebound advantage in double figures 48-38. Kobe played incredibly shooting a scorching percentage and adding 8 assists. Bench scoring was almost at a stand still. Stephen Jackson and Manu were off. Lakers had double the free throw attempts than the Spurs 22-11. Had a 3pt lead w/ 45secs to go.......

I'm surprised this was considered an "OK" loss. Talk about lowering expectations.

If anything I think it was a disappointing defeat.

Battousai · « **Reply #2482 on:** Nov 14, 2012 at 06:37 PM »

Whats dissapointing is a spurs win by only 2 points. With the way the LAkers have been playing, this veteran Spurs team shouldve won easily.

Munskie · « **Reply #2483 on:** Nov 14, 2012 at 06:54 PM »

Still not disapponited, a loss is a loss yes, but at least they're not stiffs out there, unlike in the mike brown games where it seems they dont know what to do.

They showed up in a dogfight against the team with the best record in the west. It was a good game. Ill take the positives here, even if they lost.

^ Yep, mas dissapointing parin 2 losses ng Heat na Defending Champs. Puro blow out...

...

Nope, that player is on the HEAT. Lebron is the best Center and two guard in Basketball.

That's why Spo calls him "One to Five" which is ALL the 5 positions.

*juussst kidding sir

hehehe.

if you look at it by parts, sure, the Spurs only have a clear advantage at the PG spot.. but as a team, they are way, way better than the Lakers at this point of the season..

the Lakers are still in a period of adjustment.. their plays aren't set plays.. they just go to their strengths.. they go to Kobe on isolation or Howard at the post.. it's predictable.. the Spurs, on the other hand, have structure.. they have chemistry so the ball goes to who it's supposed to go.. on defense, they know when to rotate.. and in crucial plays, they know what to do.. in short, the Spurs already play as a team while the Lakers are still getting there..

individually, the Lakers have an advantage in multiple positions.. but as the saying goes, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.. it's an OK loss because the Lakers lost to a way better TEAM than them by just 2 points.. they didn't lose to Tony Parker or Tim Duncan or Danny Green.. the lost to their TEAM, the Spurs..

Disappointing loss in the sense Lakers shot better, had a clear rebounding advantage, Lakers bench was not outplayed by the Spurs bench. You can't even say officiating was uneven as Lakers were given double the number of free throws.

When you shoot better, rebound better, hold you opponent to sub-40% shooting and shoot more free throws.....you win.

yeah, they shot better but the Spurs had 16 more attempts than them and made 4 more field goals.. and even though they rebounded the ball better, they also turned the ball over 17 times compared to the Spurs' 8.. so that right there offsets the Lakers' rebounding advantage.. and though they shot more FTs, they're a terrible FT shooting team..
