Get Used to This… Again

And its not just Kobe putting up 44 shots to score 48 points because he needed to do that for the Lakers to win last night, but its more of the fact that he will need to do that for the boys to have a shot at winning now that Andrew Bynum is going to be out for at least 8 weeks due to a dislocated kneecap. What is going to hurt the most is watching a guy like Nick Collison who averages about 9 and 9 getting his season high of 24 points and 18 rebounds against the Lakes porous middle. Kwame needs to get in shape quick because at least he can defend and rebound a little bit. The Lakers were on their way to a home court match up in the playoff and Phil was on his way to a possible coach of the year trophy. This might be a rough 2 months. It is uncanny because this is shaping up just like last year all over again. Got off to a great start but then we got hit by some untimely injuries that derailed what could have been a beautiful season. damn
