Byron Scott says they just have to get Kobe Bryant better looks

Green, who stuffed the stat sheet with 18 points, seven rebounds and five assists, tried to keep the team’s achievement in perspective after the game.

Bryant’s shooting this season is truly a major concern not just for the future Hall of Famer, but also for the Lakers who are dead last in the Western Conference standings with only two wins in 14 games.

On Tuesday night the defending Warriors trounced the Los Angeles Lakers 111-77 to set a new league record of 16 consecutive wins to start the season, and remain the only team without a loss this season.

Bryant didn’t practice Wednesday with the Lakers and the team took Thursday off, giving him three days to rest his 37-year-old body in between games.

Barkley singled out Kobe’s over-reliance on his signature (and much imitated) pump fake as the reason why Kobe can’t seem to get a bucket this season.

On the season, Bryant is shooting a career-worst 31.1 percent from the field and is 2-for-21 from 3-point range in his past four games.

Bryant has not said when he is officially retiring, but earlier this summer, Lakers part-owner and executive vice president of basketball operations Jim Buss told the Los Angeles Times that the team expects this season to be Bryant’s last of his career.

Byron Scott says chemistry isn’t the issue, says they “all get along”, just “don’t trust each other on the court”. Making his Olympic debut in Rio de Janeiro next year will be a “dream come true”, Curry said. “I got faith in Kobe that he’ll be okay”.

“Yeah, I’ve seen him play and it’s disgusting”, he said. We accomplished it, and now we have to make sure that we don’t drop off and give a game away just because we broke this record. I could’ve scored 80 [Tuesday]. We are a young team, very hungry we’ve got great veterans that won’t let us be complacent. I don’t think the way we approach things here is for everybody.

The Ohio State product said he is completely aware of the situation and he knows it is one of the challenges he needs to overcome as a rookie. Lakers fans wanted to see Russell in fourth quarters so that he can learn what it is like to play in crunch time since they had nothing else to lose but at the beginning of the year Scott was not obliging. “He’s just going to kill you”.
