You have a great style on the radio. Is there any chance you would ever do simulcasts with Stu like Chick used to do? - Drew
Every time I go to a Laker game, there is a man walking around on the court before the games start. He is short, he has long grey hair, wears a cowboy hat, cowboy boots, and usually wears a loud-colored blazer with jeans. From the back, he resembles Tom Petty. Who is he??? - Ellen
Do you think that some of the choices Mitch Kupchak is making in regards to the roster is wasting the talent of Kobe Bryant? Do you think that this could have been done better by Jerry West? - Ian
As a Laker fan, I feel this team needs major upgrades at a couple positions. First at the point, someone who can lockdown on dribble penetration and can shoot a good pct from the 3-point line. Do you feel they have the resources to do this? I am talking about an Eric Snow type player that the 76ers had in their run to the finals in 2001, hard nose and a good mid range jumper. Your thoughts? - Jeffrey
Do you think it's necessary for the Lakers to double team on defense? It seems when they send the double team, they always get burnt. Wouldn't they be better off defending teams man to man, or zone? - Ron
Why doesn’t Phil play Cook more, this guys is a great scorer, I know Cook is not the best defensively, but I have seen him turn games around when we are down in Points, and struggling, and Phil turn around and takes him out the game, and back down we go…………I just don’t understand it. With all do respect, what is going on with Phil’s coaching? Do you think it’s because Phil has it for him after the towel incident? - Maurice
Who has the most number of championships in the NBA – Lakers or Celtics? - Andy
I can’t help but notice body language. Besides Kobe, Lamar, Ronny, and Luke, Everyone else’s body language is very disappointing. I don’t know if it’s low confidence in them selves, but it kills me to see no Heart. Now this is based on observation of course so I can’t speak on behalf of any of them, but it just looks like they don’t want it as bad. Do you think it’s contagious from Smush? Or am I just seeing things? - Danny
I am a huge Andrew Bynum fan, and i know he is only 19 years old, but it just seems like he is in foul trouble every night. He doesn't seem to know how to create angles to block shots. Am i expecting too much out of the kid or is it something that he will figure out with time? - Joe
Hey Spero, my question is why does the attendance say 20,121 for the Clippers, Lakers Game and the Clippers were at " home "but all the Laker games say 18,997? - Garrett
Is Phil coming back next year? I hope so personally I don't see another replacement. - Herbert
Give me your all 1st All-NBA Team and all-defensive 1st All-NBA Team? - Allan
I am a big fan of yours since you began broadcasting Laker games on the radio. I wanted to know if you plan to pursue television commentary. - Mary
Why is the zone defense so hard for the Lakers to counter? - Michael
Why isn't Lamar as interested in scoring as somebody as physically gifted as him should be? - Mel
