yeah horry is one of the best at that

[minew_m]

Yeah, Horry was impressive just this year in the playoffs. He may have lost a lot on his shot, but he can contribute in other ways like offensive rebounding and blocking shots. He is also a great defender.

wooohoooooo!!

news just in:

Kobe's defense team won a victory, as the Judge in the case is allowing the defense to present evidence, and ask questions regarding the woman's sexual history 72 hours before and after the alleged rape

and he will also allow the defense to question the alleged sexual partners of the woman

wow, having over $150M in your bank account sure buys justice, eh?

lolol

so, it's Kobe back on the NBA court this coming fall, scoring 35+ points, and losing games left and right

no one remembers you if you're going to be losing

news flash:

The Lakers 2nd round pick, a power forward/center - Douthit - is now charged in an insurance scam involving car accidents and filing false claims.

He received $6500, which he deposited into his bank acccount.

what a sad sack of sh*t!!!

what are these athletes thinking???? Douthit had a shot with the Lakers (or another team, esp. since he's 6'10" -- you always need height)....and then blows it with a scam?

why not do your scams once you know you're no longer good enough for the NBA???

it seems highly unlikely that Douthit will make it with the Lakers - and this kid had a great summer league performance so far, too!

[minew_m]

Dang, yet another hard blow for the Lakers.

[podstock]

Well, well, well....

doesn't the NBA front office have a sense of humor.

Kobe and the Lakers will meet Shaq and his Heat team for the first time on

by the way, one of the things that Shaq did as a Laker that was GREAT: He and his buddies would rent a huge delivery truck around Christmas time, then drive over to Southcentral LA and the ghetto area, and start tossing out presents everywhere.

Let's see if Kobe does something like that.

lololololo...he's probably gonna have to spend another $4M for another ring to keep his wife from leaving him

LOL!


Anyway, did you hear any news about Jason Kidd? I guess if he were to be traded (like he wants, but isn't demanding yet) the Lakers, San Antonio, and another team I forget are in the front to where he would want to go. Isn't it something now that the players can chose the teams they want to be traded to lol! That would be a good pickup for the Lakers if the rumor is true. But hey, it comes from Stephen A. Smith so I'm not sure what to believe of it.

[stalking_WOLF_21]

haha your right about stephen A. the mavs are the ream that are first in line to get him. for one they have to many shooting guards.

stackhouse
danials
finley
howard

i mean those are soem good guys. prime candatates to be traded

[minew_m]

Yup, that's who the other team was. Dallas could get Kidd back and they are the ones who have the most to trade for him. I wonder if he is going to demand a trade or stay with the Nets and lose 60 games.

[podstock]

As a Lakers fan, I would not want Kidd and his ridiculous contract. Hell, I wouldn't want Kidd even if he were making $5M (I think he's making $15-20M a year)

first, Kidd is a HORRIBLE shooter. You watch the playoffs and the NBA Finals, and you can see just how pathetic he has been over the years.

Kidd is an over-rated point guard.

Yes, he's great at running the fast break.
Yes, he's a great rebounder (which means he can start fast breaks easier, since he gets the ball and can head down the court)
Yes, he's a tremendous passer with great court vision

BUT THE GUY CANNOT SHOOT WORTH CRAP!

How can you be considered one of the greatest point guard, and all you can do is rebound and pass??

Jason Kidd is so over-rated, it's not even funny.
