Kobe's bad read on Lakers
Although trade talks with Chicago are currently dead, Kobe Bryant will continue to want out because the Lakers have failed to add a superstar who will help him get out of the first round of the playoffs. He will continue to think they're not trying their hardest, which is an absurd concept. Traditionally, the Lakers' front office has done the best job of anyone when it comes to keeping its team in championship contention, and keeping its loyal fan base packing its arena.

We just spanked phoenix and had them down by as much as 32 points. It looks like at least this early and without (Lamar Odom). I hope kobe realizes that we are a little bit better than he thinks!!

WE LOOKED PRETTY GOOD AGAINST PHOENIX THE OTHER NIGHT (THE TEAM THAT PUT US OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS TWO YEARS IN A ROW)

Winning solves everything and soo far that is what they are doing.Bynum looks real good and it seems that alot of players are playing better defense.If they do good KOBE will be happy.But if they start to fall fast it might be a different story! I hope they can work it out and do whatever it takes to get back to winning alot of games!

I really enjoyed your post and could not agree more with you it looks as if Kobe Bryant is starting to make up excuses just to try and get out of Los Angeles. He has a very good, talented young team around him. Luke Walton and Jordan Farmar don???t look like the star-struck new guys that they have in the past, but instead like they can become decent scorers on a team that has lacked depth in the past. And the big guys for the Lakers will show up too. Ronny Turiaf and Andrew Bynum will come into their own with more experienced perimeter players, and will have an easier time working their way into scoring positions down low. As you mentioned, even without Lamar Odom against Phoenix the Lakers were able to move the ball around really well and get it to their scorer(s).

I feel like Kobe Bryant isn???t playing for the Lakers anymore, but instead he is on Team Kobe. He only seems to care about himself and how many stats he can rack up. Kobe is not a team player- end of story. Hopefully in the very near future he will realize that the team behind him can actually contend, and with a few good front office moves, they can become an even bigger contender. And what you said about the front office is absolutely correct. They have done such a good job with that team in the past; Kobe really has nothing to complain about. The pickup of Derek Fisher was a great move not only for the team, but for the city of Los Angeles in general. Who else other than their last second scoring hero could you ask for to add the final ingredient to the semi-new look Lakers? Overall, I really enjoyed your post and sincerely hope that Kobe Bryant realizes that the Lakers are a legitimate contender this season.
