Kobe played well. His supporting cast was just nonexistent. Also helps that the Suns bench was literally lights out.

Did they arc the ball so much that it took out the ceiling lamps?

Phoenix had over 60 points at half time. That is definitely a sign of bad defense

Look at those Boston/Orlando games and you definitely see a major clamp down 3rd quarter if any team even gets close to 50 points in a half.


the lakers were contesting shot after shot, but the suns's bench was just knocking down every single jumper. good rotation, running to the shooters and hands up. nothing more they could do about it.

You've got to realize Europe players are very good at layups and passes then Americans are good with dunks and power play.

Except in the 4th quarter where Phoenix got like 5 wide open threes in a row.

Part of that was them being awesome yes, but still, inexcusable.

Dragic was sick. Fuck Nash man. I didn't see a single Dragic turnover, but Nash? Yeah.

They got a LOT of open shots. If anything, I think credit needs to be given to the Suns' bench's D for clamping down on the Lakers in spurts.

Losing 2 games to Phoenix playing Zone Defense isn't even the issue. Suns' defense is still terrible. Lakers defense is the real culprit here.

Kobe was hot vs zone but only him. The rest of team need to realize that.
The Lakers seem to understand how to beat the zone, but for some reason they aren't willing to just go do it.

Sweet. With any luck the bench will be them normal selves from now on. Hope the Suns make the most of their opportunity in game 5. Unlike the Lakers the Suns starters should be really rested lol :o

Last 2 games are the only times with the recent Laker teams where Kobe plays really huge and they lose anyway.
wtf was that signature

Yeah, there was a 3-4 minute stretch in the 4th where the Lakers literally couldn't get a shot up at all. Phoenix bench was really doing well offense and defense.

i still wouldnt say the lakers are playing bad defense, the suns are avging the same amount of pts in the other games in this series.

game 1 107
game 2 112
game 3 118
game 4 115

artest really needs to step up his 3 point shot, he's missed so many open 3's through out the playoffs

yep, he pretty much couldn't have played better than he did the last two games, if only his teammates would have given him the ball in the 4th tonight. I'm sure he is absolutely furious. I wouldn't wanna be in that locker room or at practice tomorrow.

I think people don't realize that the Suns are a huge team. Robin Lopez at 7 foot, Amare at the 4 at 6 10. And the Bench with Channing Frye at 6 11 and Louis Amundson at 6 9. This is a big team that is going neck to neck and even in some cases beating the laker bigs (Suns +15 in rebounds +5 in offensive robounds in game 4).

This is my recreation of what the Lakers did after game 3:

Kobe: facing zone, gotta practice catch and shoot, practice 3's and fadeaways, watch the Sun's defense on game tape, practice more catch and shoot, ice, rest, more catch and shoot.

Derek Fisher: facing zone, gotta practice swinging my arms into people's faces. *Looks in mirror* ok, pretend to be surprised when I'm called for a foul. Need to wave my arms more in shock...

Phil Jackson: how can I creatively backhandedly point out the free throw disparity?

Ron Artest: How can I piss off Phil Jackson and make the media pay more attention to me?

Lamar Odom: mmm, candy

Pau Gasol: Me gusta el pelo de Robin. Que acondicionador el usa?

*Kobe practices more catch and shoots* I have a great feeling about this game
