Ah, more excuses, their offense was top 10 and running like shyt according to you all when they had everyone and Kobe felt the need to fire up 21 shots a night, but that was Nash's fault somehow. They were losing games to good teams when they had a full roster, but that doesn't matter.

I'm not a Kobe hater, I'm a hater of fakkits like yourself that defy him and find faults in everyone else and excuse everything Kobe does. Learn the difference, if you dudes weren't such unabashed fakkits you wouldn't hear from me :blessed:

When the fukk did I excuse anything kobe does, don't project whatever feelings you have with kobe stans onto me.

The team started winning when Kobe made a more concerted effort to set people up. He has never given Nash free reign to run the offense like the Suns did, that is the point. You all are acting as though Kobe wasn't taking 20 shots a game early on in the season and dominating the ball.

Had I told you Nash would be averaging 14 and 7 before the start of the season you would have said I was crazy.
who's the best post player on the team? Kobe
who's the best player on the team that can take a defender off the dribble? Kobe
who's the bigger threat off the pick and roll on the team? Kobe
who's the best spot up shooter on the team? Nash

I understand what you are saying. But the point is this Lakers team is old. They do not have the legs to let Nash run the offense and speed up the offense. If Phil Jackson was the Lakers coach, what duties do you think he'd have Nash do? spotting up.

The lakers have no starting player that can effectively take the ball to the basket and put pressure on the opposing team's defense. So having a Kobe who is willing to pass the ball as your primary ball handler solves a lot of issues for the Lakers. He can take his man off the dribble or kick it out to Nash who's a lethal shooter. Since opposing teams are reluctant to leave Nash open, it opens the floor and gives both Dwight and Kobe more room to operate.
How do you think Lakers went to Finals 3 str8 years???

we lakers fans aren't delusional(well some among us are :russ:), we know the strength and weaknesses of this current Lakers team. And having Kobe as our primary ball handler mask a lot of said weaknesses and make us a better team.

He would bring the ball up and pass to Kobe because as soon as he crossed half-court he saw this -

Kobe+Bryant+Olympics+Day+14+Basketball+P7_kQwJbb9al.jpg


Running in his direction. Sorry, but that Suns roster last year was hot garbage, and Nash has not fallen off to the point he should be relegated to spot up shooter. That is bad offense and it does not work against good teams, they've won 15 of their last 21 because of who they played. And your point about Nash and turnovers, why doesn't that hold true for Kobe? He's turning the ball over at a ridiculous rate since becoming the playmaker.

He was not turning the ball over at a ridiculous rate until this recent stretch. But let's be realistic Walt. Kobe bought into Brown's offense and let Nash run the show and played off the ball. He was efficient and they were losing. They worked with D'Antoni's offense and we were all complaining about Kobe spotting up and shooting 3s and that's not what you do with a Kobe Bryant. He himself was part of that miserable three point shooting.

Nash was incredibly inefficient running PG for us and he was not running up the court and just passing to Kobe. Part of that was Dwight setting terrible screens, but it's just real. Nash hasn't fallen off but the personnel isn't there for him. MWP can't shoot, Dwight doesn't run that pick and roll as well as Amare...he and Pau had minimal chemistry and D'Antoni had Pau shooting 3s, the tempo was slowed, etc.

This roster is not built for Nash that way. The guy's that Kobe is kicking it out to now have been getting minutes due to Pau's absence (Jamison, Clark) and are shooting at a crazy clip right now. They are shooting 43% from 3 since the break. Who knows how long that lasts.

:laugh: I remember I tried to tell them Nash was a worse defender than Sessions & Fisher, and these dudes actually tried to say he wasn't.

I enjoy :troll: them with facts, seeing the shyt they come up with to cop pleas for Kobe is hilarious. But you're right, it is wasted keystrokes for the most part.

:what: shut yo bytch ass up.... HOw long you been an OKC fan? :mjpls:

Niccas knew we was in trouble once we lost all pre season games, started 1-4 and D'antoni was hired.

This dude @Malta usually make some good points but what he's saying concerning Nash being the primary ball handler makes no damn sense. We all know the team has been hot garbage this season but having kobe Qb'ing the offense just makes us a better team. And no nobody is saying Kobe is the MVP(thats Leroid James :pachaha:)

Suns offensive rating last year -
9th (Pace 92.6)


Suns offensive rating this year-
27th (Pace 92.7)


:ld:

Playing at the same pace, offense is horrendous this year.

Pace is completely irrelevant to what I'm talking about. The personnel has been shaken up and of course Nash is gone.

Sure, they are committed to executing at the same speed, but they aren't executing as effectively as they were before. They just don't fit very well at this point. You also had Michael Redd getting minutes and doing work, don't even try to compare this years Suns to last years. You're looking at numbers and nothing more.
