We are young, and we showed it tonight. We were intimated to open our season in the house of the defending western conference champions. I will make no excuses, we got it handed to us tonight. Offensively we played bad. We need more "easy" baskets, ie- fast break, points in the paint, free throws, etc. We rely too much on the outside. Defensively wasn't bad, but not great either. The Lakers shot well (70% from 3-point, compared to our 41%).
Personal thoughts.
B-Roy cannot be our point guard, really he is comparable to Isaac. He could score from about anywhere on the floor at anytime, but he passes the ball way too much. Still he is the man and my favorite player, no bias on this blog.
Rudy played well minus a few dumb turnovers.
G.O. just did not look ready. I didn't expect him to do too much offensively, so not shocker there.
Lamarcus you need to man up, I am a big fan of yours, but come on, get tough and get in the paint. I want you to be Rasheed but you just aren't.
Channing Fry, why, why, why, and did you really pull up from 3 point land? Please stop.
We are so athletic, we need to run.
We missed Martell tonight.
Travis you force it too much.
Coach Nate be patient with these young guys.
K.P don't worry, yes you made the right decisions with these guys so far. Although we will need to ship a few out before the trade deadline, including Raef and his 12-13 mil.
This is only one game.
Friday on ESPN we have the spurs. The only team that has worse fans than LA (yes Bjork and Farnsworth, thats you). Let us come back against the Alamo Friday with some Spanish fire!

Didn't Oden leave with a foot injury? What's his status?
Yes he did. They say it is nothing major. He is practicing today, but they may hold him out for a game or two.
