    The spanish coach saying attack vujacic in the last play of the quarter. Make it personal and make it work your way, use it as a motivational tool to be better at defense; study clips of your rivals, and work it out. Make them pay, and make eat them their words.

    It´s a shame, that you’re not in Poland. Use it to your advantange, prepare yourself better for the nba. Your effort is there, as always, but try to become more inteligent playing, defending and attacking, ask for advice to your coachs
    or teanmates in LA.( there´s an interview with kareem talking about Bill Russell and how he prepared himself to be more effective in defense , scouting the rivals, and looking for ways to help his team to win). Make this situation a blessing in disguise. Check it out Bob Cooley in Boston , (resistance stretching, a personalised program). Energy and positivism.

    its funny how everybody can get on this site and post comments about what all sasha need to do…but yet the main ones posting comments doesn’t have a clue as to what it takes to make it in the NBA…he’s already there so thats enough said….HELL everybody have moments when their game is not where it should be…even KOBE…so let this man gain his confidence back on his own…

    To Bradley B, Does phil Jackson has a clue …………about being in the NBA?

    http://articles.latimes.com/2009/jan/10/sports/sp-lakersfyi10
    Jackson’s unhappiness with Vujacic began when the fifth-year pro picked up a late technical foul Tuesday during a loss to New Orleans.
    “We just had to come to the conclusion that Sasha’s just an emotional player that plays by the seat of his pants, and that’s about it. He just doesn’t have a brain,” Jackson said before Friday’s game against Indiana. “He’s just out there whacking away and working really hard. He’s not using his head out there at times. We’re working with him, hoping that he will.”
