Not just one guy.

When Howard is the top 5 player in the league, you expect him to carry more load than this. Of course, Kobe and him would have to get the most blame and have to get more work done than the others. For now, David Lee is playing better than Howard.

Also, unlike Spurs, Lakers don't play 12 players in every game with the same share of minutes. Most Lakers bench don't even get to play more than 10 minutes. Even when they are on court, they don't get to touch the ball. The way Lakers are playing are solely relied on Kobe, Howard, Nash and Gasol. Other players are just placeholder for the 5th position.

The blame is not 100% on any one person. The blame should be shouldered by the executives,coach and players.

He's certainly not helping.
