| This is a horrible move for Nash and Kobe imo.

| The pick and roll for Bynum and the pick and pop for Gasol are going to be there all day. This is a great move. And this guy is a two time MVP... And people still don't like the move... Only us lakers fans can complain. | |

Not sure how having Nash is going to help him. The other player should benefit though. | I think it puts him in a position to take fewer shots, ipso facto he'll end up with better shot selection. | |

| FWIW Nash was the 2nd best PG last year, according to advanced metrics. | |

Nash isn't even a top five point guard.

| If the lakers get another wing defender/slasher like espn was just talking about it could be a good move. Lamar could've been that guy. | |

To argue he is a top 5 PG at this stage in his career is beyond dumb. | |

So Westbrook plays 4 more minutes, and that's what's causing him to only shoot 45%?
Nash is a great shooter, and takes great shots. That's why he's shot at least 50% 7 of the last 8 years. | |
