Why Laker fans are punks (part 1)

Totally ruined what should have been a very satisfying drubbing of the Lakers by the Suns.

I know Kwame had a really bad night, but daamnn. The kid was really trying to play, and didn't give up, but it was just one of those quicksand games, where nothing you do is right, and the harder you try, the more trouble you find yourself in. It's exactly nights like these, though, when the fans have to really encourage and stand by the team. They should be ashamed of themselves. They make Sixers fans look classy.

The adjustment for Phil Jackson will be the same as he made for Stones: find Kwame's offensive comfort zone on the court, exploit it, and don't stray away from it.

Phil will get this done.. and while I don't think he even knows what to do with point guards like Nash and Chris Paul, he's an amazing big man coach. After all, he turned Will Purdue, Luc Longley and Bill Wennington into solid contributors. Having said that, he's going to need Kobe's help. Big time.

As for Kwame.. well, he just needs to talk to Kareem, and listen closely.
