    I see he is back playing but barely getting 5 minutes a game and not even doing anything while he is on the court, is he still hurt, rusty or is he just old and finished? Are his minutes expected to rise anytime soon?

    Well I don't think hes just standing around and doing nothing. I know that he has had a few points, assist, and rebounds. He's only getting a few minutes cause he's still rusty.

    I think the effectiveness of Chris Mihm has a lot to do with Divac's little playing time. Well, Mihm is not that effective, at least not yet, but he's that much more effective than Divac at both ends of the floor. And the Lakers have found themselves in close games many times this season and even when they lead by 20-30 pts, with this Laker squad, no lead is safe and putting Divac in would only make matters worse.

    He's not 100%.

    He isnt 100%, I dont know if he is on Rudy's good side, and Mihm has been playing well, his minutes should increase over the next couple of weeks.

    I think his minutes will increase over the next few weeks. He needs to get his wind back. Mihm has been playin pretty well, although not as consistent as I would like.
