<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p> It was more of the sloppy same from the Lakers in their second exhibition against Golden State. Phil Jackson wasn’t pleased with the 25 turnovers and the shaky defense, but he wasn’t too worried. He noted that the Lakers got into an up-tempo game with the Warriors — “their game” — to work on L.A.’s up-tempo game when in the regular season the Lakers would never play into Golden State’s hands like this.</p> </p> Javaris Crittenton’s slick NBA debut was followed up by a pretty bad effort all around: three points, 1-for-4 free-throw shooting, one assist against two illogical turnovers. The Lakers’ turnover leaders were Andrew Bynum (five in 18:30), Kobe Bryant (five in 25:33) and Ronny Turiaf (four in 17:12). The Lakers are trying to increase their offensive pace this season, so it’s predictable that they’re out of control in games now, though Bynum’s bungles had little to do with that. Bryant did have eight assists, but shot 2 of 10 from the field in an 11-point outing; he also played pretty unfocused defense.</p> On the bright side for the Lakers, Vladimir Radmanovic shot well again in a 12-point effort (though again not everything came smoothly out of the triangle), Coby Karl hit 3 of 4 from three-point land to show why he’ll almost certainly make the team, and Chris Mihm showed a little more bounce in that right ankle with 11 points and five rebounds in 18 minutes.</div></p> Source: OC Register Kevin Ding Blog</p>
Once again people when people where talking about how good Crittenton played the first game I was more into how good Radmanovic played.I think this might be his season with the Lakers I think the SF position got a bit more depth but he might get more playing time than Luke if he continues to play like this.</p>

Bynum was finally dunking on people in traffic which is how he needs to finish every game. Him and Cobe Karl have some good chemistry going.</p>
