Hey folks. Sorry for the delay on the threads. It seems C.A. is sick (get well, dude), and we crossed our wires a bit.
Kobe's putting on a clinic, Andrew Bynum can't miss, and this is your second half thread.

Definitely get well asap, C.A.!
Lakers 2009 Road to Redemption: TREVOR, DEREK, LAMAR, PAU & KOBE.
Play the game of which Lakers reminds you of: TA - TI, Shannon Brown - Chris Brown, Pau Gasol - Jesus, Machine - Luis Scola/Russell Brand, PJ with mustache and beard - Colonel Sanders.

Oh, Bynum got picked on that RB...

It probably would not be in sequence with your video. I think NBA.com has free audio, not positive.

Does Derek Fisher even attempt to get down the court on offense any more? Or does he just camp in the key to pretend to play defense on the breaks?

Kobe and Drew both with 21 points. Anybody want to bet on 30 and 30 for them?

Ruben Patterson.

How good of a job did he do?

Middling. He wasn't afraid of Kobe, but he didn't really stop him either.

I think he got that nickname because,if I remember correctly he used to play for the lakers and in practice they went at each other….

Very good. I didn't know that but the Lakers took him in the second round in 1998.
Wikipedia on the juicy stuff:
- * *
Often outspoken and erratic, Patterson was temporarily suspended from the Trail Blazers in the 2005-2006 season for speaking harshly at coach Nate McMillan and refusing to return to a game, upset about his lack of playing time. Patterson later explained his outburst, saying he was frustrated and it was “like the devil hit me and told me to get it out”.1 He also demanded that he get at least 25 minutes per game or be traded. * * *
Personal life
Patterson has been involved in a number of off-the-court issues during his basketball career. Patterson would have to register himself as a sex offender to establish legal residency in many U.S. states, due to pleading guilty in 2001 to attempted rape of his child’s nanny in September 2000.5 It was reported that he forced the nanny to perform a sex act on him.56 In February 2001, Patterson was convicted of misdemeanor assault for attacking a man who scratched his car outside a Cleveland, Ohio night club. Patterson was arrested in 2002 for felony domestic abuse charges on his wife. His wife later dropped the charges and they divorced.
He was accused of failing to register as a sex offender on May 15, 2007 after moving into a new house in Cincinnati and a bench warrant was issued.7 His agent, former NFL player Tim McGee, said Patterson’s failure to register was “an oversight” after Patterson was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine on June 8.

His Jailblazerisms were sucker-punching Z-bo in practice, stealing luggage from rookies, and getting entangled in a sexual charge with a babysitter.

There are basic Fundamentals that are needed to move forward in this game. Always keep your guard up at all times to avoid being caught in a trap. Overcome the fouls that will be commited against you REBOUND AND PRESS ON. ADJUST to the LimeLight: ALL-STAR PLAYERS ARE ALWAYS THE CENTER OF ATTENTION. Know what your role is and play your position. Find a game plan and execute it. REMEMBER YOU ONLY GET OUT OF THE GAME WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT.

His decision-making especially
Abandoning the three to attack the rim aggressively has been chief among them.

They're now unquestionably the #1 team in the west. Pau took them to another level just by being there and putting LO on the bench...

Farmar is impressing me tonight. His decision making has been great, leaps and bounds better than what I saw from him last season.
i would agree

I agree with what Stu said
Drew isnt a rebounder really. He just gets them cuz hes so tall and happens to be in the right place. Hes gotta get that Dwight Howard mentality of getting every rebound
Yes, this is true. He is a stellar offensive player, middling rebounder.

I hope he develops into a great rebounder

sad but true
they get more riled up about their crappy tacos then during most the game
Leave Chad Billingsley alone!!!
I hate the "WE WANT TACOS" chant
it only spurs the opposing team to ruin tacos.

true..
It should spur the Laker bench to play fucking defense……………….too bitter?
Billy Mac: "Lamar, can you see yourself actually getting in the (boxing) ring"?
Lamar Odom: "No. My face is too pretty."
but it rarely ever works
in theory it should make the bench want to hold the opponents under 100 so that the fans can get tacos … but it hardly ever works … esp if tacos are in danger.
Lack of bench care + taco chant = opposing team’s bench effort + no tacos.

win win situation imo.

It's not about the tacos.......they taste like shit.
It’s about the mindset of the bench. They say you can’t turn it on and off like a switch. I just want the bench to play like they care. Their ability to allow the other team to get offensive rebounds is epic. Seriously they could make an instructional video called “how to AVOID boxing out at all costs”.

crazy thing is because it's Shannon...
…I watch that play and see nothing special. I have to think hard that the guy on the receiving end is only 6’2 and shouldn’t be able to fly like that.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.
I always have to rewatch his dunks
because at first, I don’t really see how crazy his hops are. He also has huge hands which makes his dunks that much more spectacular.
I’m really like how he and Jordie have been able to work together.

My first post in this blog, although I'm a long time Laker fan
I think one of the unsung heroes in this game was Ron Artest. He was completely nullifying Kevin Durant all game.
The Big Red Machine V.2 is coming this Fall 2009. Go Halos!
I think you made a couple of typos in this comment.
