Lakers problem?

  
         
Here's what every Los Angeles Lakers halfcourt set is supposed to look like this season, through the eyes of the impatient, uncompromising basketball fan (that's pretty much all of us):
Steve Nash uses a Pau Gasol screen, hits a rolling Gasol with the perfect, left-handed pocket pass. Gasol draws an extra defender and hits an open Kobe Bryant in the corner. Kobe blows by a closing defender, spins past another, throws a no-look pass off the glass, where a smiling Dwight Howard finishes with a two-handed dunk, all while Metta World Peace is sharing popcorn and a beverage with an A-list fan, knowing his services aren't often needed on the offensive end of the floor.
Or at least something close to that, right?
That's not much different than the Cirque du Soleil act we wanted from LeBron James, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh upon their launch in Miami three Octobers ago.
