It was talented. It wasn't talented enough.
It wasn't Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol, and Dwight Howard.

Yes

I'm not sure what people saw from 04-08 that made people think that Suns team was as far as D'Antoni's system can possibly go. Other than analysts like Barkley saying it over and over.

I wouldn't say those Suns teams necessarily represent the peak for the D'Antoni system. Were it not for a couple of bad breaks along the way, those teams could have gone farther than they did. But I'm also not convinced this Lakers team is the one to take the D'Antoni system to the next level. They're still an older team, with a weak bench and very inconsistent outside shooting. Its going to be interesting to see how those things mix in with D'Antoni's style, which, so far, has relied heavily on 3 point shooting and playing starters heavy minutes, among other things. I personally don't think its the best match between coach and personnel, but I could be proven wrong.
 
How can anyone say Knicks fans are worse than laker fans.lakers fans are truly pathetic.trying to praise dantoni all of a sudden.lol.when he was the coach of the suns,where was this praise?????,when he was the coach of the Knicks,where was this praise??now all of a sudden those teams sucked and u can't blame dantoni???? Lol it's truly sad in here.knicks fans can be somewhat over the top,but at Least most of them seem to keep it real with their team.MOST laker fans are just truly delusional.get over yourselves.your looking pathetic right now with a pathetic coach.

Bc phx kept killing us in the first round?
 
Is this Jennings/Ellis backcourt better than most expected?
Not if you play 2K

In 2k I play Beno, BJ, Ellis at the same time, works like a charm
 
Russ with 10 fgas at the end of the 1st, everyone else with 9. :lol To be fair all but 1 have been layups many of which rimmed out. Detroit's crowd is so sparse it's like the players are miced up. You can hear everything
 
Man Harden has like 3 moves and with the new flop rules they aren't giving him that swing thru so it's more like 2. just got packed by Battier on the break. Ginobili is rolling in his grave
 
INTERESTING Tidbit:

Jimmer "Da God" Fredette has the highest PER in the NBA right now......#FREEJIMMER


There was an article a few days ago that Jimmer was in the Kings long term plans, despite his limited playing time.. Leads me to believe one of the PGs or SGs will get dealt this season
