The last 5 games his field goal attempts are non-existent. @POR - 2 FGAs @GSW - 5 FGAs UTH - 13 FGAs DEN - 7 FGAs @UTH - 7 FGAs All those teams are under sized. There's no excuse for not getting Bynum more involved.
its more about the lack of ball movement, when the ball becomes stagnant then its harder for the big man to make position against any defender. if the offense isn't moving then that creates less room for Bynum to be effective. anyway i think the last four losses have shown that the Lakers aren't too fussed about HCA as much as they have been in the past and so now they are cruising a bit since they are all a little banged up, in an effort to save there legs for the playoffs. Either that or they have just plain sucked. to think that they're not trying as hard is at least a little more comforting, rather than them beginning to play badly unintentionally right before the playoffs. whatever lets you sleep at night i guess.
Less shots from the perimeter. Akira touched on it a bit with the ball movement. The Lakers are passing the ball around, but it's going from side to side instead of attacking inside-out. The Triangle offense doesn't rely on guards to dribble penetrate, the penetration comes from passing the ball into the post and then adjusting the Triangle set based on the defensive rotations. Not sure what to make of the recent 4 game slide, but the turnovers are out of control and the execution on offense is terrible.
