Lakers bench struggles

The Lakers bench, such a big part of the success of the team, struggled yet again.

The reserves combined to score nine points against the Sacramento Kings.

Jordan Farmar had four points on 1-for-4 shooting and Sasha Vujacic had five points. Ronny Turiaf didn't score, and neither did Vladimir Radmanovic.

The Laker reserves looked tired and worn down at times.

They just weren't effective and probably need a rest.
