Fisher needs to retire, Blake was missed by the Lakers he at least can hit the three.

Fatigue should not be the problem man. Kobe played 44 minutes and he didn't look tired. The Lakers have a personnel issue. They don't have three point shooters. Harass Bynum and double team Kobe and you have beaten the Lakers. Plain and simple. When the Lakers used to be really good, they always have reliable shooters ready. Robert Horry, Lamar Odom (not shooter but he cant hit the 3s), Vujacic. They just don't have it now. You know why Orlando is playing so well? They have Dwight inside and shooters spacing the floor.
That and their bench is junk. Literally junk. Nobody on their bench would start on any other team. Look around teams like Bulls, Miami, Dallas, Thunder, Clippers, etc. They have legitimate starters and reliable punches off the bench.
