Couldn’t agree more with every point you made. Remember how D-Fish was on the decline way back in 2003 when guys like Troy Hudson were making him look like he was ballin in cement Ewings? What has changed? I appreciate the fact that he’s “been there done that” and all, but he’s no longer the clutch player he once was. Now I cringe whenever he touches the rock.

Memo to Phil: Luke Walton is the WORST option for checking Melo. I’d rather suit up Sun Yue than see Luke try and keep up with #15. At least Sun would foul Melo instead of going matador…ok, that’s going too far, but Luke is going to have to be doing a lot more on offense other than dropping a couple of nice dimes to justify getting more than 5 minutes of burn.

Speaking of “Office Space”, Sasha has earned the title of the Lakers official “No Talent Ass Clown”. Thanks for showing up this post season. Shannon Brown has earned Phil’s trust and you’re headed off to play with Slava Medvedenko in the Ukraine if you can’t make an open jumper and play some pesky “D” Vujacic.
