Earl Clark has to stay in the starting line up. His versatility, athleticism and energy on defense has been huge. Line up with him, metta, dwight and kobe makes a solid defensive unit. Leave pau in the bench, hed help out the bench too with jamison anyways.

It's the only way he's gonna get his post game going. Take one for the team.

What up brethen?
Got a good win last night, not getting too excited since this team is bi-polar as fukk.
Nash needs to look for his shot more.
Kobe needs to keep up that level of defense.
Dwight needs to stay engaged on both ends of the court.
Pau needs to be moved to the bench upon his return.

2 games out of 38 he played some defense against trash teams. Lol. Getting excited for 2 wins against the cavs and the bucks.

His defense has been fine the last two games but it wouldn't even be worth talking about if it was anyone else. It's good in a "hey he's 34 and doesn't usually play much defense" kind of way. It kind of goes along with what I have said though. He plays hard a couple games a season and people suddenly forget all of the games he sat around in a one man zone ballwatching and not having an effect at all.

Im saying hes played great defense the last 3-4 games but I think this is a function of coaching rather than him having a lack of desire or ability. His defense sets the tone for the rest of the team... he isnt a great help defender like d12 so the best thing for him imo is to get 20-25 good minutes guarding the teams best wing player and alternating with d-morris. Defense is clearly the reason for the record... not 30+ games or pau or d-12 health or anything.

I don't know whose idea it is for Kobe to be a lazy ballwatcher but I've never denied that it's systematic. His coaches have openly said they want to conserve him on that defensive side so he could carry the offense. My objection to his defensive reputation is that someone who is taking the defensive side off (whether it's by choice or because of lack of ability) is simply not someone worthy of an all-defense award. Even if he's following coaches of orders of "play no defense" to a T, the successful application of NO defense is not something that merits recognition.
