If Nash and Kobe were both healthy this whole season...

[lilteapot]

assuming they played at least 65 games this year

how many more game do the lakers end up winning?

I say they are still roughly in the same spot as they are in now. Everyone else on that team is just not good enough.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

who cares anymore.

Assuming Nash can play 65gms next year.... it wouldnt be with the Lakers as his contract runs out this season.

[B]The Lakers are 14 points per 100 possessions better with Kobe off the court this season than they are with Kobe on the court. Among all players with at least 1,000 minutes this season, only Kobe's teammate Jordan Hill has had a more negative effect on his team's production than Bryant himself.

You clearly don't, but it's something I am interested in discussing. If you aren't, feel free to not make your presence known.

Don't forget J.Randle in your IF scenario

Oh, true. He would have definitely been a bigger positive instead of having to resort to using Robert Sacre.

Healthy Kobe and Nash wow. Arguably the best backcourt in the league, two MVPs, I say Lakers are in a battle right now for home court in the first round of the playoffs. Especially if you throw in Pau Gasol and a Healthy Julius Randle plus Phil Jackson as the coach

This.

+10 for Nash being healthy

-15 for Kobe being healthy

[Velocirap31]

A truly healthy Kobe would be shooting a better % and contributing to wins. A healthy Steve Nash would give Kobe some wide open looks with slick passes, something Kobe has never had the privilege of. Wasn't this the dream when these two got together? Of course they'd be very good.

Still miss the postseason.

This. They need so much more than that.

Yet the Lakers have a worse record without him since he's been out.

When your leader quits on the season, for the 3rd season in a row, it surely hurts team morale

Seems to me that someone who was drastically harming the team statistically no longer playing would boost team morale.:confusedshrug:

The Lakers should be crushing the league without Kobe's negative impact. Not only are they not doing that, they are actually worse than before.

What the hell is Nash gonna do besides play like shit:facepalm ? Had Lordbe been healthy however they go from lottery to contenders again. I don't think he was playing healthy at all this season, which makes his 30 point triple double even more impressive:applause:.

[f0und]

a healthy washed up kobe is still washed up.

[PleezeBehave]

They'd still be old.
