    I think Pressuring the pass to Shaq
    KILLS them. They don't seem to handle it well.

    Back court pressure on the Lakers is a bit of
    a problem for them. If you were allowed to
    play kobe like the lakers are playing Iverson
    [hands on and holding to keep him from getting
    the ball]
    The Lakers are VERY beatable.

    Guys like Fox and Fisher are good spot up shooters. I think if you pressure the ball
    and don't double or make the rotations more
    confusing you can disrupt them.

    In their current line up. I would rotate off
    Horace grant. , . . . Then if I had to pick a
    poisen out of Fisher, Fox, Horry, or Shaw

    I think Fisher or shaw.

    I dunno but from the outside looking in
    I would expect the sixers to really pressure
    Fisher up the court all the time. [I know snow
    and company is not all that healthy]

    I find that I can usually solve the problem by wearing less restrictive underwear. Maybe the Lakers need to switch to boxers.

    Bingbong was set up, led to an untimely death in the prime of his life for no other reason than pure malice. Things like that do not go unavenged. Sometimes it spills out onto the field of play.
