Despite touting a robust 21-3 record, Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times thinks the Lakers are missing something. Something magical.
The Lakers have lost that spark.
[21-3]
What happened?
[They win a lot?]
I found Kobe. I found Fish. I found the schedule. I found the kids.
[OK?]
I also found a guy who thinks this is all poppycock.
[So did I! I think that guy might be on to something...]
Here's what I found. Kobe Bryant Hasn't Pushed Them Yet.
[Seriously! If Kobe had be "pushing" them, they would probably be 22-2 right now!]
This is a team whose pulse can be directly measured by Bryant's heart rate....
[I'm pretty sure that only KOBE'S pulse can be directly measure by Bryant's heart rate. But keep going.]
Derek Fisher's and Jordan Farmar's Defense Hasn't Pushed Them Yet.
[What's with all the pushing?]
The Schedule Hasn't Pushed Them Yet.
[Yeah, c'mon schedule! Get more difficult so the Lakers will lose a few games and I will look like a genius for writing this "Lakers lack a spark" article.]
Teams get lazy at home and tough on the road.
[Lakers home record: 14-1. Lakers road record: 7-2. Sooo lazy.]
The Lakers are a sultry, splendid 21-3. Now if they'd only act like it.
[I vote that Kobe be the first Laker to start acting "sultry."]

Plashke is half old dude with Alzheimers and half that guy from The Gardener from "Being There."
He is also quite sultry.
