The Los Angeles Lakers are currently riding high on a three game winning streak and are now closer to the return of Steve Nash to the starting lineup very soon.
Though the process has taken some time, there are current Lakers who find it enjoyable figuring out coach Mike D'Antoni's system.
Kobe Bryant is currently leading the team in scoring averaging 29.5 points per game. Though the struggles have caused Bryant a bit of frustration, he's finding it to be enjoyable in the sense that it's keeping him focused through the season, according to ESPN Los Angeles.
"I'm probably the one that's enjoying this process the most because it's the most challenging," Bryant said. "I'm focused; I enjoy being focused about something and digging my heels in and figuring out the puzzle.... It's coming. We're still going to have peaks and valleys, but it's coming."
D'Antoni's system works best with Nash running the point guard, with most success with the ball in Nash's hands. At this point Chris Duhon and Darius Morris are running the position for the Lakers, and although they have done a great job, they are not at Nash's level.
The Lakers will be looking to win their fourth consecutive game on Saturday when they play the Golden State Warriors, and there is a chance that Nash will be in the lineup.
