The Lakers may be up 2-0 over Denver in the playoffs, but that doesn't mean there isn't plenty of issues rattling around in the head of the average Laker fan.
What becomes of Devin Ebanks once Metta World Peace returns from suspension? What can the Lakers do to prevent the Nuggets from replicating Game 2's track meet pace? And do LeBron James and Dwayne Wade owe Kobe a royalty check on every chase-down block?

Nothing like a lopsided loss to get the Laker Nation a-chatterin'. Plenty of questions tossed our way, including those about Kobe Bryant's time table for a return, how well the Lakers match up in a potential series against San Antonio and the odds of Ramon Sessions returning next season.
Here's a link to the transcript.
Also, as a reminder, if you haven't had a chance to read Dave McMenamin's two part Q and A with Jim Buss, do so. (Part 1 here, Part 2 here.) It's well worth your time.

Can the Lakers compete tonight against the Spurs without Kobe Bryant? If the answer is no, (a) should Mike Brown consider resting Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum and (b) does this mean The Mamba should merit more consideration for MVP honors?
These and other questions were tackled in today's chat. Here's the link to the room.

After the second high profile "benching" in two games, today's chat room was hopping like the Easter bunny on a sugar rush.
Talking points included Andrew Bynum's attitude, whether Ramon Sessions is being properly utilized, and Steve Blake's recent skid. Plus, a Halloween 2012 suggestion for the K Bros!

Oh, the flurry of questions sparked by consecutive losses! Among the topics tossed our way were the ETA for Ramon Sessions being promoted to the first five, Sessions' and Kobe Bryant's crunch-time compatibility and the odds of Jordan Hill entering the rotation. Plus, Andrew Bynum's exceptionally classy, mature, and timely ejection.

With the trade deadline approaching so many questions about Dwight Howard... Pau Gasol... Andrew Bynum... Deron Williams... Michael Beasley... Ramon Sessions... Ray Felton... and why the heck the Lakers haven't amnestied Luke Walton yet. (Although really, fans would be asking about the latter issue even without March 15 looming.)

Never a dull moment in Laker Land. By definition, that makes for a lively Laker chat.
Among the talking points were Pau Gasol's future in L.A., how Michael Beasley (reportedly on the front office radar) would fit in L.A., and the likelihood of new faces after the trade deadline. Plus, a shout out to "Chaz!"

It was a lively day in the chat-o-sphere, as one would expect with an erratic road trip halfway in the books.
Among the talking points were potential trade targets (Rondo, Sessions, Howard, etc.), the role of Andrew Goudelock upon Steve Blake's return and Mike Brown's rotations. Plus, fare thee well, Derrick Caracter.
For those who couldn't attend, here's a link to the transcript.

Twas a lively conversation, as one would expect after the purple and gold finally enter the win column. The Laker Nation is breathing easier, but hardly easy, and questions still remain.
Among the talking points were the roles of Josh McRoberts and Troy Murphy upon Andrew Bynum's return, whether Matt Barnes will have a role at all this season, and why Darius Morris currently has no role despite the team's point guard issues.
