“ The defense, I got to bring it back. I got bored with defense because it was so easy for me to stop people over the years. I got real bored with it. When you’re playing against guys and you’re stopping guys every single time, what else are you going to do [but get bored]? It caught up to me, but this year I’m doing better. This year I’m almost back to where I want to be.

Lakers Top Knicks as Most Valuable Team

No team has benefited more from the explosion in TV money than the Los Angeles Lakers, who have unseated the New York Knicks as the league’s most valuable franchise. The Lakers struck gold last year with a new 20-year television deal with Time Warner Cable worth an average of $200 million annually beginning with the 2012–13 season. The agreement drives the value of the Lakers up an NBA-high 40 percent to $900 million

The top 10:
1. Los Angeles Lakers, $900 million
2. New York Knicks, $780 million
3. Chicago Bulls, $600 million
4. Dallas Mavericks, $497 million
5. Boston Celtics, $482 million
6. Miami Heat, $457 million
7. Houston Rockets, $453 million
8. Golden State Warriors, $450 million
9. San Antonio Spurs, $418 million
10. Phoenix Suns, $395 million

“ We’re really not shooting the ball well. We have to start knocking down some of those shots. The opposition is shooting the ball much better than we are, especially from 3. After the first quarter, we opened the floodgates and just let them score at will. Then you compound that with the fact that we’re having a tough time scoring.
