What makes a team with as much talent as the Lakers have lose so many games against “inferior” teams? These guys are not rookies. And why can't Kobe learn to take what the defense gives him on a consistent basis? ?C Bill Stuart, Philadelphia
The Lakers are a textbook case on why it’s so difficult to repeat. Since they are the reigning champs, they firmly believe they can turn on their individual and collective A-games at will. So they simply don’t start out with the requisite concentration, respect for their “inferior” opponents and level of intensity.

Will the Lakers repeat as NBA champs? Yes No
However, it’s impossible to la-dee-dah through a season and then get their chops up in the playoffs. Playing hard from tip to buzzer is a mind-set that can only exist if it’s practiced on a regular basis. SOCCER JERSEY

The Lakers do have something of an excuse for their most recent woes. NBA JERSEY

With Kobe on the shelf, they recently won four of five, losing only to the Celtics by two points, and got comfortable playing without him. The ball moved, the bodies moved and everybody was willing to take the big shots. Now that Kobe’s back in action, there’s a tendency for his teammates to stand around and watch him do his thing.

The same scenario occurred when Michael Jordan returned to the Bulls' lineup late in the 1994-95 regular season after having a go at baseball. For the Bulls then, and the Lakers now, it’s a question of readjusting to the overwhelming brilliance of their respective superstars.

Moreover, these are the dog days of the season when virtually all of the best teams are just about locked into their playoff slots, and not every game is vitally important.

Why doesn’t Kobe take what the defense gives him?nike air max 87

That’s a good question. He will do this only when he’s double-teamed on a wing. Otherwise, he seems to make up his mind to either shoot or to throw a touchdown nike air max 90

pass.

The whole essence of the triangle is to avoid pressure and move the ball and the players until there’s sufficient space and time for an acceptable shot. One reason why MJ played until he was 40 (and averaged 20.0 ppg at that) was because of the three-plus seasons he was “retired.” But his longevity was also attributed to his adherence to the principles of the triangle, and only rarely did Jordan put himself in a position where a big man could slam him. On the other hand, Kobe routinely challenges the bigs, endures much more disadvantageous contact that Jordan did — and has subsequently suffered more injurhttp://www.airmaxshop.net

AUGUSTA, Ga.
“Oh, Tiger … Woods! You suck! Goddammit!”

Finally, a rowdy fan calling out golf‘s fallen star?


No, the words were uttered in exasperation by the man himself, on the sixth tee during a roller-coaster ride that was part of maybe the most exciting Saturday ever at the Masters. nike air max 90

It was a day of thrills and spills — highlighted by Phil Mickelson’s back-to-back eagles on 13 and 14 — but Woods needed more thrills and less spills. nike air max tn

It’s not often Woods makes seven birdies in the third round of a major and loses ground.

He’d lose his temper again, cursing too on the next hole — an errant shot which would lead to one of his five bogeys — though later he had no recollection of either incident. nike shox nz

“Did I? If I did, then I'm sorry,” Woods said.

Not as sorry as he was about the desertion of his game, which went AWOL when he needed it most.

Woods knows that winning is the universal solvent. nike air max87

Coming back from five months of tabloid nightmares to win the Masters would be just the tonic he needs and maybe even manage to shut up Gloria Allred.

And he had his chance on a day when the fire-breathing Augusta National greens weren’t as spicy as usual and the pins were in more benign locations. nike shox r4

But Woods figured out on the range beforehand that he was in trouble.

He’d not been playing well earlier in the week but somehow got his game together for the first two rounds. But early Saturday afternoon, he was missing shots to the right and left, and had no obvious solution.
