Who are the 2014-2015 Los Angeles Lakers? It s too soon to even call this a work in progress. This will obviously revolve around Kobe Bryant, but Jeremy Lin can be a vital piece of their possible success, although it does mean that Byron Scott gives <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Acheter louis vuitton</a> him a shot at sometimes leading this team.

The definition of point guard doesn t matter. It s who gets to pull the strings, call the plays and have the ball in his hands that determines how this team will look. It s been a very long time that the only player with that responsibility has been Kobe Bryant, and he doesn t relinquish power or share the ball with others easily. We saw how well that attempt ended with Dwight Howard running as fast as possible out of Los Angeles.

What we re going to be doing this year is we re going to be very proactive. There s going to be a lot of overtime, quite honestly, and police are going to be targeting those areas where they are seeing the most activity, said Barrett.
Lin, obviously, isn t Howard. He hasn t come here to become the new face of the franchise or the future of the Lakers. He isn t going to try and play some alpha-dog games with Kobe Bryant. He s here to help this team but also give his career a boost, as it has been treading water since leaving the New York Knicks for the Houston Rockets. Obviously, he needs someone to trust <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/26-voyage-louis-vuitton>Voyage Louis Vuitton</a> in him the way Mike D Antoni trusted him, maybe without having any choice, back on the East Coast.

Milwaukee County Sheriff David says the mayor and police chief should hire a minimum of 300 to 500 more officers and put <a href=http://www.louisvuittontassenkopen.com>Louis Vuitton Tassen</a> them on the streets.
Byron Scott has done some nice things with point guards in the past. Maybe it didn t have a lot to do with him maybe it was simply a case of being in the right place at the right time. Still, Scott has coached Jason Kidd, Chris Paul and Kyrie Irving. To some extent, he has a part in the players they were under him and a bit later. Scott wasn t a point guard himself, but he probably knows a thing or two about coaching the position.

This聽whack-a-mole <a href=http://www.louisvuittontassenkopen.com>Louis Vuitton Kopen</a> strategy of increasing police presence only after a high-profile incident occurs to give the appearance something will be done only to leave after a few days, allows the criminals to return and once again dominate the neighborhood, said Clarke.
Still, the strong man in all of this is Bryant, and perhaps Mitch Kupchack. That was seen when Scott was given a contract that s smaller in pay compared to rookie head coaches like Steve Kerr, David Blatt and Derek Fisher. This is a GM league, a superstar league. Head coaches without title rings find it difficult to make it their team, especially if they re not something new and refreshing.

Milwaukee police promised a larger presence near 34th and Hadley after two children were shot in crossfire at the end of July. The victims were traveling in a van with seven kids in all.
The Lakers have the tools to make this season better than the last. They have a point guard who can keep Steve Nash rested, and provide the same passing and improved scoring compared to Kendall Marshall last season. Lin can make Carlos Boozer look like a great power forward from time to time after almost two years without a decent point guard feeding him the ball at Chicago. Lin doesn t need the spotlight, the pats on the back or the points. He just needs the ball in his hands to make others better.

Police now say they have arrested suspects in that shooting as well as another shooting near N. 27th and Hope. A woman at a bus stop was hit in the leg during that incident.
And that s going to be the key making everyone play their part. For Steve <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/28-portefeuille-louis-vuitton>Portefeuille Louis Vuitton</a> Nash to be the backup point guard he is now. For Kobe Bryant to be a less ball dominant shooting guard, although that mostly depends on his ego. For Nick Young to remember this isn t the same injury-riddled team of last season. It s going to be a tough preseason and process once it begins. Jeremy Lin can shine through all of this, but only if he is rewarded with trust and faith from those calling the shots.

You have to have more cops. All the Milwaukee police officers are going today is going from one call to the next call, said Clarke.

@@@ MILWAUKEE (WITI) After 13 people are shot in the last three days, city leaders in Milwaukee are speaking out on plans to curb the violence. Mayor Tom Barrett says more patrols will be out, but some are saying that s just not good enough.

What we re going to be doing this year is we re going to be very proactive. There s going to be a lot of overtime, quite honestly, and police are going to be targeting those areas where they are seeing the most activity, said Barrett.

Milwaukee County Sheriff David says the mayor and police chief should hire a minimum of 300 to 500 more officers and put <a href=http://www.louisvuittontassenkopen.com>Louis Vuitton Tassen</a> them on the streets.

This聽whack-a-mole <a href=http://www.louisvuittontassenkopen.com>Louis Vuitton Kopen</a> strategy of increasing police presence only after a high-profile incident occurs to give the appearance something will be done only to leave after a few days, allows the criminals to return and once again dominate the neighborhood, said Clarke.

Milwaukee police promised a larger presence near 34th and Hadley after two children were shot in crossfire at the end of July. The victims were traveling in a van with seven kids in all. Police now say they have arrested suspects in that shooting as well as another shooting near N. 27th and Hope. A woman at a bus stop was hit in the leg during that incident.

You have to have more cops. All the Milwaukee police officers are going today is going from one call to the next call, said Clarke.

Mayor Barrett says citizens will see <a href=http://www.louisvuittontassenkopen.com>Louis Vuitton Handtassen</a> more officers on the streets this month, but they will be working on overtime. He will not be adding more positions within the force.

It s something we re taking very, very seriously. I spoke to the chief on Friday and we discussed this. He understands, and I understand, how important it is to have this strong presence because every single neighborhood in this city deserves to be a safe neighborhood, said Barrett.

Sheriff Clarke also pointed out a news conference today was simply about safety and had nothing to do with the Sheriff s race election next week.
