Kobe Bryant can ‘barely stand up’ after playing 36 minutes

“I’m star-struck right now”, said Sadler, who got to see the Lakers down the Detroit Pistons 97-85. My back & my legs, it’s killing me. The next game, he was hardly needed as Bledsoe became the dominant force, finishing with 30 points in only three quarters of action.

Lou Williams hit a 3-pointer to pull the Lakers within 82-78 with 11:35 to go. “Obviously, they did something correct”, he said.

However, there are lots of problems in this trade speculation, first and foremost is because Kobe has a no-trade clause in his contract which prohibits the Lakers to trade him without receiving his consent first.

Bryant won’t play Monday when the Lakers face the Suns in Phoenix. “They’re all cheering each other on”.

“They feed off each other”, Williams said. The two guards have been alternating the point guard position this season, but Hornacek said that he talked to them and said that when both are on the court, that Bledsoe is the primary guy. There is no doubt that the big minutes, played by Kobe Bryant, which includes a season-high 36 minutes Sunday Night, are affecting his health.

With the team’s leading scorer Kevin Durant still out with a hamstring problem, Oklahoma City (6-4) will be hoping the likes of Serge Ibaka, Enes Kanter, Dion Waiters and Steven Adams will step up more. “One of them should have an advantage over the opponent’s team”, he said. “To me, that is a bunch of crap”. Despite his lackluster play so far this season, you can’t knock his will and determination. I thought our guys gave an effort but I thought their effort was 10 times better.

The Lakers coach made a decision to stick with Kobe Bryant for longer stretches than he normally does, with the plan of resting the veteran for this morning’s (Singapore time) National Basketball Association contest against Phoenix Suns.

Clarkson has continued to show refinement in his game finding comfort in a role of a score-first point guard.

This shouldn’t come as a surprise as Kobe has already rested a couple of games due to a few back issues.

Suns: F Markieff Morris missed his second straight game with a strained left knee. He didn’t mention former Defensive Player of the Year candidate Roy Hibbert.

In Minneapolis, Jeff Green scored a season-high 21 points, Mike Conley matched his season-high with 20 points to go with six assists and the Memphis held on to beat Minnesota. But Chandler’s struggles didn’t prevent the Suns from outscoring the Lakers 54-32 in the paint.

Van Gundy also was critical of the play of Jackson, who finished with nine points on 4-of-11 shooting while adding three assists and five turnovers.

Unless Lakers coach Byron Scott thinks of something to turn things around for the ballclub, it seems to be the imminent course.
