<div class="quote_poster">YourNewChef Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I don't think Sasha will be tossed to the side. He provides pretty good defense and he CAN shoot the ball. His defense on the more annoying lane driving PGs is pretty sturdy.</div> Sasha can shoot the ball? When? In practice? In preseason? Like Shape said, Sasha has gotten his opportunity to prove to the Lakers he worth the spot on the roster. So far, he hasn't proven anything. The guy still can't shoot the ball in games, and I don't really see any area he has improved from last season. From what I see, Sasha is just another Von Wafer, but with a better understanding of the triangle and better defense. I think Shape said this a while back, it was stupid for the Lakers to extend Sasha without even seeing how he will perform in the regular season. Anyways, nice win the Lakers! Kobe looked a bit rusty out there, but I'm not worried at all. Odom looked fantastic, Bynum and Luke looked great, and Turiaf, well, Turiaf is God.
Sasha, hasn't been making his shots. He has to step up, either on the offensive end with his threes or playing hard defense. Anyway, Ronny the best game I believe of the season, better than last game. His energy and hustle clinched us that win. It's amazing how Ronny and Luke are second round picks but, playing more then Cook. These guys are the future with Bynum, Odom, Farmar, and Kwamem and Smush.
