The other thing Lakers fans can expect to see at the start of the game
is Kobe
Bryant matched up against Rajon
Rondo."[It will] probably [be] Kobe, but if we get cross-matched, Fish [Derek
Fisher] will be on him a lot," Jackson said.
Ray will eat Derek Fisher alive. They're going let Ray run the oldest guy on the team off a million picks? That will not only make it insanely difficult to guard Ray… it will take his legs away and render him ineffective in his ONE offensive role: hit the open jumpers as guys chase Kobe around.
So you've got the least effective defender on Ray… and you risk losing him on offense too.
This is going to backfire on LA. I'll bet it doesn't last long.
