The Association Los Angeles Lakers HD

Here dreams begin at dawn. This city feeds on them. You have to have something special to achieve it. We call it the hard-to-define factor, but you know it when you see it, and in Los Angeles, the Lakers, they are the defending champions, box office dynamite. who knows why, but we love our

lakers

, maybe it's the coach a master of motivation or the star who doesn't need anything or maybe it's the whole set of different people with a dream, one thing is for sure we try to discover this season in the next. follow the los

angeles

lakers

in asking to repeat as nba champions don't anticipate your role and just know what i'm going to do and in true style the cameras were always rolling join us inside run run run Let's go run, run with exclusive access through the ups and downs, what's wrong with you guys?

As we take a deeper look at a season in the

association

, okay, I'm not looking at this replay, I'm just looking to win, you know what I mean, of course, it's in the end, you know, the end result repeats itself , but it's a completely different year, you know, we did it last year, it was great, but it's not that hard for me, just forget it and move on to the next season, win basketball immortality again for the Los Angeles 09. lakers is purple this is not that long there are so many battles the playoffs are so difficult that when you get to that point it is like a big relief being a laker you are already a celebrity so winning a championship you are not just a member of the rock band like you're like the Grammy Award winning rock band back to work again it's going to be hard to defend our title but I feel good man I feel great I'm ready to roll you see that's a good start yeah sir , the 2010 los

angeles

lakers will begin their training camp looking to pick up right where they left off, they come, my man will lean in, yeah, helping the young man out a little here, real fast, nba champions, loose and confident, proudly sporting a crown. champions league, champions point, you can't argue, but they ready to get back to work, come on, boy, come on, boogie, come on, back in, oh, imagine, imagine, trying to cover that back pick, catch, pick, Back to the right, back behind me, yeah, oh.

Despite their arrogance, the hunters have now become the hunted, we know last year that we were challenged and we know that this year we are going to be challenged again, so there is nothing given and if you sit for a moment, the people will step in and take your place, but the Lakers got even stronger this year, they added make our test, talented, yes, but also an enigma and it remains to be seen if he would become a distraction, he will be physical and play hard without matter what other things come up. We can certainly find a way to deal with that because, you know, we have guys with character on this team and that will help us do this.

Our test may have his childhood friend, Lamar Odom, to lean on, but Ron would have to develop a trust with team leader kobe bryant there wasn't much of a foundation to build on kobe bryant is going to be very careful not to receive a technique to Any hope of a successful defense of the Bryant title and our test would have to put its past behind it, you know? now i'm playing with kobe but you called me with four rings i don't have any you know even lamar that's my friend but he was always competitive he has a ring i don't have any you know i have to have one i need a bad one i need one opening night, Our new trial teammates received a symbol of last season's achievements.

The ring ceremony represents the end of a successful journey, but also a weight of expectation. Personally, I think we have what it takes, but it will be tested more than ever. last few years and we will have to go deeper than we have ever had to go deeper. This team has a chance to be a real good watch and good old Bryant sets it up for the fighter. A few stops here and they have to get back to it. defense that they are going to repeat, you know, looking at this Lakers team, they should easily be 20-1, so what you are saying is that they are going to break the bull's record of 72 wins, they will not break it, but I will challenge it in the Kobe class, give me a break, this team is confident, very confident teams, so when you add all those ingredients to what the Lakers already have, you see what could be surprising, the Lakers have now won seven in a row and still have. four games left on this farm they could hit the road with an 11 game winston kobe kobe 3.2 seconds no timeouts for the lakers wade left and drives 107 105 miami gives kobe the right wing dribbles 30 feet a second brian dribble has that put up with the buzzers, wins the game just when you thought you'd seen it all from Colby Bryant, pulls it out of his bag of tricks and the Lakers' winning streak continues, it was the luckiest shot I've made so far.

If I shot it, I thought no way, then oh I couldn't believe that, though hey you're the only person I am, look at someone else, the Lakers were on a tear playing 17 in the first 21 games in staples, but winning. at home is what good teams do, the great ones put on their show away from home, we have to play very well at home, well, we expect more than that in this organization, especially with the champion team, so we really have to play well out of home. People in Los Angeles are trying to make it, some are just trying to get to work, life has a certain rhythm here, if you're from out of town it might take a while to get used to, but not for Lamar Odom.

I fell in love with California. As soon as I got here, everything was much more relaxed. Lamar is from Queens, New York, but he feels quite comfortable here. He won a championship with the Lakers, signed a contract and met the woman of his dreams. Reality TV star Khloe Kardashian. Where do you see yourself? 10 15 In 20 years, besides the fact that one day you will be my wife, how do you know that one day I will be your wife? That's easy, how can I know when you know you know, just 30 days after they met, the Lakers came to see Lamar.

Make it official, he was now Chloe's co-star from this day on, you are husband and wife, back at work, the lakers were energized by their good start and ron artest had been rock solid, selfless, chase the ball down, it doesn't go down, no, he's tough. He's not going to fail on you, but he has an erratic side to your Los Angeles Lakers. Please welcome Ron Artest and he always seems to get the most attention. I don't think he's one of those role model types, but I get it. I'm in a situation where I have to be a role model, I'm just in that situation, so that's something I'm working on, you know, um, it's not something I'm running away from, I'm running away from seeing someone who has misunderstood a lot, yes.

Above all, he is calm, he is one of the most loyal people I have ever met in my life, of course, I know where he comes from, I know his upbringing, you know how difficult it was for him growing up if you take a five minute walk. from manhattan you can cross the east river into queens and right under the bridge is where ron artest grew up it's the building i grew up in at 4107 apartment 5a the queens bridge projects is the largest public housing development in north america mi house burned down and We moved to this first floor right here and we have all this here while one of the ten people in a two-bedroom apartment, Ron, gravitated toward the basketball court where he found room to move and the love of an entire community brought back a man from the ring.

That's all we want, man, just mom, Ron, you know, bring back the ring. The Queens Bridge is never far from our test. It is tattooed on his right arm, a permanent reminder of where he developed his intensity. What do you want me to play? I think that way, yeah, yeah, he changed this right, yeah baby, he brought our test, it'll all be on him once I know where the ball is going when you're ready to get your midsection moving, keep my feet moving , without cubes, this is the rhonda test that these defensive physicists signed. the presence is excellent, especially I have two big guys behind me, without cubes, our test will not back down from anyone, they will take it away.

Jordan Farmer will get it from ron artest once you see that guy doing that, that means you should prepare to do it like that. I've never seen anyone play defense like that, you know, especially in person, anytime you can take advantage of a player like that and use his advantage to your advantage instead of your detriment, I mean, he's kind of a missing link that adds toughness. them, but he still doesn't know the offense, so he's not sure what he's doing out there, ron, ron, what are you doing? We have an opposite center. One of the things with ron is that he likes, you know, the guidelines that he likes to have not so much. guidelines, he likes to have things structured so he knows where everything comes from and this offense, although people think it's very structured, it's very unstructured, last season our testing was focused on stopping Phil Jackson's triangle offense, now he's trying to learn it and guess who it is. when teaching him we call our own audibles so all you're doing is playing outside of the format the format is a workout but within that you recognize everything you can change or adjust and you communicate with each other and you do it he's still exploring what the limitations are so that's where I think Kobe helps him a lot because of his ability to play within this system, yes sir, so now he just starts the triangle up here, yes, it's all the way down there, so now it's harder for me to do it. all that pressure because more space flows now when you penetrate it's hearthstone to help me cover okay, okay ron, you gotta know this, you gotta get up high here so the middle is open, we try to run in this game, the other.

The night we couldn't execute well, it's not about the backpack down shot at the end, it's about the initial part. The triangle office can be difficult to understand. You can say the same about Ron. He's got equal parts bravado and humility, but at the heart of him He's just a new kid trying to fit in This is my family They adopted me right here They adopted me when I came to Los Angeles What's going on? How is school today? Come on, I got the message on the Twitter page. Who's ready for a soccer game? right we got one we got one ron actually gave me some tickets to the game last night too one mississippi two mission three mississippi oh get out of here come on man yesterday yeah thanks man yeah six weeks into the season, the Lakers are seventeen and three are trying. to stay ahead of the competition it was a routine play with potentially devastating consequences out of bounds at the last moment by the old brewer kobe is kneeling and hopefully okay a tendon had severed a piece of bone in his right index finger by kobe bryant most people would go to the hospital.

Kobe has the ability to focus on the task at hand, which is the game, just a few minutes later. Bryant would return to the game. He doesn't focus on that pain in his shoulder. The Lakers will extend their winning streak. at 11 brian leans with his left hand and has 20. in the corner the lakers behind 42 of kobe bryant defeat the bulls sometimes when he gets to that point he has some of his best games he even concentrates more three seconds colby takes a step back back fades he got it when the buzzer rang and the lakers will escape milwaukee with a one point win people wonder if that person is even human he gets that focus or something from outer space i don't even know what to call it it's uh it's inexplicable , although Kobe's teammates were in awe of his late-game heroics, they were also becoming dangerously dependent on them.

He spoils us. He is so good. He spoils our team because he can get us out of trouble. He is so good that he gives us bad habits. the lakers had made it through the first two months of the season before we saw any sign of weakness, the lakers were defeated by the spurs by 20 and even kobe bryant couldn't avoid the embarrassment that unfolded in front of a national television audience on the day of Christmas. up, come on, James scores the ball and a foul, this one got a little out of hand with the crowd who stuck out their fingers and this is unfortunate, the Cavaliers defeated the Lakers on their home court.

The loss to the Cavs was the beginning of a streak of six and five. That may be fine for a young upstart but not for a champion and Kobe had seen enough hey girl bringing the shell oh yes sir his concentration is something no one has. I don't think Kobe is the hardest working, you know, most committed basketball player. the game never seen every day of the year kobe bryant is doing something to become a better basketball player when faced with adversity kobe bryant has his own way of sending a message, but the man who helped him win four titles has an approach different that phil gave all books on the plane today what was your what was your title the wrench gang oh, whatwe'll find out, we'll read a little about this phil jackson was trying to get his team right using the same methods he's always done For Jackson it's been a life of being a maverick coach and he still treats players his own way.

He has a great or not, I don't know if a great but unique sense of humor. He always tries to mess with you, he just messes with you. enough to make you react, you understand that you are late, we are not playing like we do, we have to put it under them, of course, it is not easy, that's why we are ruined. I love when he is hard on me. Respond to that very well, instead of someone patting me on the back and always telling me that what I do is good, so if you know, anticipate that you know that your role will be Jordan, don't anticipate your role . and I just know what I'm going to do, he sits on the bench and doesn't look like he's that affected by the game and what's going on, but inside he's seething, okay, now let's take a deep breath and compose ourselves, not Phil.

I'm not trying to tell you exactly how to do everything that really gives you the space to take a step toward what you want your individual destiny to be. I've always felt that the knowledge I gained from Phil and the way he coaches the game is what gave me an advantage over the rest of the game. two-for-one competition there's two-for-one going there, the one you ended up shooting. I tried to try. Some people may not understand his methods, but if you have played for him, you completely understand him and know what he is about, I mean, he is. just absolutely brilliant at bringing a group together to achieve a common goal no, I think more than anything it's about seeing these players come together and create a bond, it's a circle and we call that the ring after a record ten championships like Head coach Phil Jackson is now in his fifth decade in the game and knows he is closer to the end of his basketball journey than the beginning.

Sometimes I think I'm on a road trip like to Memphis or Cleveland or some city like that and I said maybe this is the last time I'll be in this city that you think about, you know the places you might never come back to, so you know that goes through my mind from time to time and you know you can't intervene. the same river twice I found myself thinking about the game and I realized you know it's still there I still want to do it and there's still a desire when that's over it's over Jackson's Lakers are 32-9 and Heading into an eight game trip, they would face their toughest tests but they should be prepared for Thaddeus Young to also come off the bench, tell us a little about him, he is aggressive, it seems like he is not strong in the post, but he wants to try hit and go to the hole in professional sports you play half your games at home and the other half on the road for the 2010 Los Angeles Lakers the road had been an unknown place until now there are different types of road trips obviously, there is the overnight stay and the return to -Back you play at home and you play away or you know you go to a city and spend the night in the city and then you play the day after the game, we have to wait for the fish man, it is a good guy, we hope? fishing, the ones that tend to be longer are the ones that are most beneficial for teenagers because the boys go out and get into a rhythm together.

We had one more 14 days last year, we had nine games, I think we were undefeated, no, it's eight games. 13 so you know this is your time to be together we have a mentality now that's what we have to do after a favorable early schedule phil jackson and his troops are embarking on an eight-game trip up the east coast, the first True proof of their ability and cohesion, the first thing for LA would be the long-awaited rematch with Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers getting James back is part of the mentality on a long journey like this to play it and forget it or you want it. think about what went wrong tonight no, we just moved forward with their deals, we did everything, make it tomorrow night's game, Phil, what can you say about Powell's free toys in New York?

I love New York, though it has a great culture, so even if you're sitting in traffic. Here it's not like sitting in traffic on the 405, there are people watching, look at things. I love the city. Madison Square Garden is my favorite place to play, although Kobe's affinity for Madison Square Garden is understandable considering he scored 61 points on his last visit. He is looking to score tonight, there is no doubt that he prepares himself, he hits it by multiplying plays here in the first half, while Colby would once again be on his game, the same could not be said for the rest of the team. the feeling that kobe bryant has lost trust in his teammates the lakers are lucky to escape with a victory but kobe is far from satisfied the guys have to get going they have to get going you know powell has to get going It's going and you have to get going I know other players had to find their rhythm because I need them on this journey.

Two nights later in Toronto, the Lakers continued to struggle and once again looked to their leader to take them out. The trip started with a record of one and two, clearly not what they expected. The Lakers were hoping that the team badly needed a distraction and luckily they were about to get one. Well, here we go, getting ready to go to the White House, I have my Obama t-shirt with me, I freshly shaved and I'm going to put my suit on at Jordo. You already met. brock I already met barack let's go to a second round we have the opportunity to visit the white house the new suit the new suit cost me a pretty big obama as a final reward for last year's championship the lakers and their families are invited to meet the president Of course, I have to give Kobe Bryant the youngest player to reach 25,000 career points, uh, and he's playing with a broken finger now, if I had a broken finger, I'd have trouble getting out of bed. , uh and he continues to lead the team day after day, give them a big round of applause the visit to the white house was just a momentary escape kobe's thoughts quickly returned to the state of the lakers where are you guys, where is your team mentally at the moment?

That's soft mentality, right? repeating is now expected to be easy so everyone is a bit fragile at the moment his leadership style is demanding and can be in your face and aggressive and assertive and I think in the end you don't have any problem with that if you are working as hard as you can and that's what people realize miller has nowhere to go and fischer took it from him this is in a 2-3 zone mission the left wing gets the high post console left corner our open test three good, boyd a the left baseline, deflected pass, stolen by fischer on the near side, lob for brian through the locks of the paint and for alma hits him and a flip saunders timeout, the lakers would finally show the heart that had been missing and got a much needed win in the process played a little better tonight next when they come to someone else's arena it's the lake show it will always be the late show the champions are in town kobe bryant is here and a little bit of hollywood of course lamar odom married khloe kardashian answers going to vote for the borrower mastering the hammers so good so romantic his three point shot is good at the bell home sweet home don't get lost in this town guys remember these nasty people here one two three at a time after 12 days on the road it's time to go home the lakers would come back with a 5-3 record but the cost came right now we've been banged up all season it's bad luck I mean sometimes you just got bad Luckily, the reality is that if you are a championship team, you have to work to overcome that, you have to do it while they limp home.

The question still remains how good this team is and, with half a season left, how far could it go? Come on, I still don't have an idea about that. We're still about 10 or 12 games away from really seeing it. You know the essence of the season and what that will mean for our team. I like the traffic. My first game as a prelaker. - Season game, I was maybe 30-40 minutes late and as a rookie that's like blasphemy, there's absolutely nothing, nothing I can do, man, no shoulder, nothing, I was just stuck and that was my first welcome to traffic, it was terrible.

It was terrible after almost two weeks on the road the lakers are back home it was far from a perfect trip but things were about to get much worse kobe bryant aggravated an already tender ankle for the first time in 236 games the lakers would have to find a way to win without him 27 28. 29. you jumped here, there was your man, your guard, he there, he wants your man under, you make a decision one way or another, it sucks because Kobe is out, but we have to think What we are going to do with the guys we have here is win games and I think we have to find a formula to do it without Kobe, the Lakers would look for their other star.

Pow Gasol is one of the most versatile big men in history. the game would now need him to take on much of the blocking load like all of us, the Lakers, pushing three against two, fall for the brown lobster inside for gasol, a lack of finishing touch, but 22, 19 rebounds and five blocks, the Towel doesn't get enough credit, um, he's one of the best players in the world, what's up, it's crazy to think about it, but he's still underrated, he's a great great player, Lakers fans already knew how valuable Gasol is to us. , but up until this point in the season, the supporting cast remained an unknown.

I'm Jordan ladies I'm Jordan what's your name Josh the opportunity was really good for our young players. These guys are looking forward to Walmart at the top for the crowd and he takes advantage of it and I think he elevated his game and they didn't. go back without kobe bryant the lakers achieved a tremendously brave victory behind a great play from the bench stolen by the travelers behind the back rebound benga mind over matter for the lakers tonight they lacked a declared victory many people outside of you know the The organization was surprised. You know we'll be able to win without Kobe, but we just have to have confidence in ourselves and our ability to go out there and do it that long.

It was his night. Janet Brown, career high: 27 points, 10 rebounds. everyone can celebrate the Lakers winning again without Kobe. The Lakers were rolling without his star when the Boston Celtics came to town. It would be great if we could continue to extend our winning streak, build on it and continue to grow. Yes, I will be. Well, uh no, you know we want him back as soon as possible, you know we need him to be healthy in the nobody misses important games like this, especially the former Lakers, well, this is where the stars come, you entertain them, I tell you which is why if you ask someone in the league if they want to play here?

Rick Fox won three rings with Kobe Bryant and still has his finger on the pulse of his former team. You played well with our goal, although I want it back. Hey, everyone. We want to be here in the stands, we wanted to come back, yeah, and off the field, I know you guys, but still, I mean, that's what I think that's what 15 guys is about, I guess that's true, you say , now you feel comfortable in the triangle. You're getting more comfortable, you know, yeah, you're getting comfortable playing a role, six straight hits for the physical game of the Boston Celtics, they're all coming after us, right?

Guys, get ready as your teammates battle the Celtics. Kobe is back in the training room. receiving treatment, he was going through his therapy and I don't think he can handle being on the court and not in uniform, you know, I couldn't do my job without trying to hold him down, it's the style that he's going to win. this championship this year in the same way that you played last year or is it you or is it going to be that you cannot repeat doing the same well you know that you have to be better you have to be harder stronger you have to execute better it is a mentality, get into that mode, you know, that dirty mode, another fourth round here by the Lakers, let's see if they can make money, I have to contribute because you win a championship, when everyone on the team feels confident and feels like they can make plays for everyone else.

The game would come down to the final moments, a time usually reserved for Kobe, but now all he can do is watch the Celtics lead with 2.2 seconds to play. Do you think the Lakers would love to have Kobe Bryant in this situation? The Boston Celtics here in Los Angeles. Angeles you see it as a positive because hey you can't win them no more wins yeah you want to win every match you play that's how you become champion you have to make saves against one of the most dangerous scores in the league, the black mamba. kobe ​​bryant says he's ready to roll tonight after being sidelined for 18 days with a sprained ankle kobe bryant would return to action against the memphis grizzlies grizzlies 98 lakers 96. we should have known that kobe rust wasn't going to be a problem thattess gets bounce on the wing for gaza top bottom right when colby shoots long three bury the set kobe bryant the master of basketball the lakers welcome kobe bryant back to the lineup electrify the memphis crowd tonight this season the lakers have trusted bryant more than ever and he sees the responsibility that leadership has not been imposed on him, he has assumed it listen, steven said right there, i want you to go early, listen to me, come down, i think he is a dynamic leader and Drew Busch Garnett pushed Garnett to drive.

He tests other guys all the time with his push if they don't meet the standard he wants to play. He lets the guys know that he too has grown in the role of establishing a connection with his teammates in the most important moments of the game. Brian looks inward and discovers that Cassandra Kobe is 31 years old and with 14 seasons in the league she has learned to adapt her motivational style. I need a person like Kobe because I need him to say, "You know, with four minutes left in the game, we're down." Hey, I need you to tell me that you know we're already going to win this game, but I just need you to do it.

I felt a little bit stuck because I went, I was here and Draw had the ball here, yeah. when you come, if you're here, when you come and dribble, just do this, yeah, back, take it, just take a step, yeah, so we keep that space. I have it in the corner. Leaders have to be able to serve and that is it. One of the things Cody learned that has always been the hallmark of stars is how much better he makes his other players, not how great he is himself, and Kobe really understood that now that Bryant has his sights set on a fifth title.

Of the NBA, Phil Jackson can I can't help but compare him to another player he once coached. There are a lot of similarities between, you know, Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan, which there always has been. The notable thing to me is that they compete in a very similar way, take your hands off me, don't touch me, the rest of the scriptures, okay , take your hands off me, I think it's totally the nature of those two players, I think Jordan exhibited that in his career there was no duplicity in him, there was no willingness to give up or not compete in the game, that It's one of the things that made them special, I have no doubt that Kobe's goal is to be better than Michael Jordan for a lot of people.

Those who are great basketball players wouldn't even try to say it, that would be out of bounds and I congratulate Kobe for that, a lot of people were afraid to walk in those shoes, but Kobe knows that the comparison falls short without the rings to back it up. Welcome everyone to downtown Los Angeles, the sold-out staple downtown, and as the season reached its final stretch, you were more focused than ever on the Lakers, with a chance to go for the win. Colby, five seconds, Carling, hanging, shooting and hitting from the baseline, 1.9 seconds. the lakers will survive the best closer in the game he's done it again he's bailed it out six times this year in many ways brian's six game-winners are the highlight of the season but also a symptom of deeper problems the team still faces and No more setting a new low for points in a game this season.

Does that cause any concern as you get closer to the playoffs? You've had trouble against some of the teams in the league. I'm sure he's absolutely worried. It should be like that. That's good. old fashioned beating they have some things they have to figure out if they want to win another title this guy is not going to go down I don't think at least someone did he used to tell us the world was flat so we'll see the lakers return to the whipped angels here in Atlanta, as I told the players, we entertained a lot of fans this season, many local teams had a wonderful victory over the champions at a time when the champions should unite, team leaders recognize that the Lakers are still searching for their identity last year we were a little hungrier being hungry a little hungry and playing a little harder you know this year the mentality has to change a little you know sometimes I criticize myself for not exploring more of what I consider the modern game, which is kicking the ball and shoot three-pointers, but the principle of this game is teamwork and it always has been.

The Lakers are one of the most enigmatic frontrunners in years. Sometimes they are brilliant if others had broken up. The playoffs are imminent and this. The team is experienced enough to know that having to solve problems this late in the game can be dangerous, but they also know that they have what it takes. There comes a time when you realize that it doesn't matter who you play against, where, when. it's just about you and the crew and that's it guys, you've been off the bus a long time ago, what happened, you're out of tape, these guys don't have any tape left in their cameras.
