Lakers News: Kobe attacks on slow start

Good old LA fans, they love when Kobe calls them dumb. As Kobe makes a zillion dollars, and let's his team die on the depth charts. Kobe might be 2-0 if the Lakers had more money.
"I've won so I can (tell people to shut up)," Bryant said. "For Mike it might be a little tough to say that so I'll say it for him: 'Everybody shut up. Let us work. At the end of the day, you'll be happy with the result as you normally are.' "
Bryant said he's been "amused" by the criticism of the Lakers' new-look Princeton offense as the team got off to its second consecutive 0-2 start despite the offseason acquisitions of Steve Nash and Dwight Howard, comparing it to the team's struggles to learn the Triangle offense when Jackson came to the team in 1999.
"I don't understand," Bryant said with a smile when asked about the distress the Lakers' poor start has created amongst the city. "And I'm trying to bite my tongue and not calling them 'dumb,' which I kind of just did.
"But they've seen us win multiple championships here in an offense that was tough to learn, that was a sequence of options that weren't set plays, that took five guys getting on the same page and working together.

The Cs are going through a similar struggle. A lot of their offense depends on not having set plays, but sequences of options,but all informal at this point, it appears.
Well, the Lakers if count playoffs,and preseason have lost 12 games in a row,and tonight against the Clippers that number should be 13
