Lakers Big Men Injuries

Manu Ginobli??

Ingles you just take this too far. Don't group me in with you, I can have a level headed discussion, and even be wrong!

Ingles I go for Chicago and really dislike the Lakers, but I love hoops and respect great players.

Everytime someone states facts, you come back with "all the Kobetards, or all the Laker fans".

Some of us come onto this site to actually debate certain topics, not just bag people for having a different opinion.

kobe shoots a higher FG%, but Harden shoots a higher 3PT % and FT%.

Kobe this year 30.5 ppg @ .481%
Harden this year 26.4 ppg @ .449%


Kobe career :
1194 games 36.6 min/gm 25.5 ppg @ .454 %

Harden career :
253 games 28.2 min/gm 14.5 ppg @ .445 %


Whilst Harden is having a break out year THIS year, he is still scoring less, and at a worse percentage than Kobe THIS year, and for his CAREER.

34 games into an 82 game season. Why don't you wait until the season is up before you make crazy comments?

fanboy? Sorry I am a Bulls supporter so I would think that would make me the opposite.

Shaq carrying kobe to rings 10+ years ago

I agree Spursfan, Lin has been good this year and is being underrated by all those who are still caught up in the Linsanity saga. He is playing a different role for the Rockets than he did for the Knicks and is growing into it as the season wears on. (He has no business being as close as he is to an all star spot though!)

Harden turned in what has become a pretty normal performance by his standards. Every time he plays I just expect he is going for 25+ points to go with at least 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

This was always going to be a tough one for the Lakers irrespective of the injuries. The Rockets fast paced game is a bad matchup for them.

Ingles you do know Kobe is the 5th all time leading scorer EVER and has 5 rings don't you. As well as leading the league in scoring this year at 30+ years of age?

I don't want facts to get in the way of your hating Kobe but wtf has James Harden done to overtake that?

If a good 30 odd games this season betters that then I guess I shouldn't follow basketball any more. Next you will say that Asik is the best centre in the game.

Then OKC on Saturday.

MWP has been great - 3 pfs though.

sigh 20 days until school goes back..

40 points on 30 shots.

Jamison should def be in the rotation. Don't know why he has been anchored to the bench really. The game a few weeks ago against Denver when he dropped about 30 shows he should be the main scorer off the bench with Meeks in my opinion.
But that was Bickerstaff coaching, and he actually knows about coaching unlike the Pringle man.

Asik will dominate, I don't know who the Lakers have that will keep him off the boards.

Having Pau on my Fantasy team has been a nightmare this year. Hoping he gets cleared of the concussion sooner rather than later and finally goes back to the post where he belongs. Playing outside is ruining his game.

Kobe is still an amazing scorer, but he is returning to his old ways of not trusting his team mates....which is probably fair with Pau/Howard out. They won't be making the playoffs in the West if they can't figure it all out in the next 10 games or so.

Small ball may help their run and gun offence. Their D couldn't get much worse!

Perhaps it's time to bring back Kwame!!

Best we have so far is slow score updates on the NBL main page.

Sixers UP 9-8.

Game time unknown.
