    Lin better go for 30. The corpse of Duhon shouldn't be able to guard him.

    If we have a lead in the 4th, it would be the smart thing to do. I'll take his percentages at the line versus Kobe in their offense. Don't give Kobe the chance to pull off any heroics.

    I don't like Jamison starting instead of Gasol. I feel like they will be more effective...

    Rockets can score at will against this Lakers team. They just need to play some defense. 3rd in scoring, but next to last in defense.

    HOU, however, No. 6 defending PnR ball-handlers; LAL just 18th. Proof that DH12 not all the way back, while Asik/Pat doing work on D for HOU




    Jason Friedman ‏@JasonCFriedman

    Per Synergy, LAL and HOU tied for No. 1 in points per possession created by pick-and-roll ball-handlers (The Kobe and Harden effect)

    VanityHalfBlack, I see you! with the pre-game ritual you did the last game, it worked wonderfully so keep doing it :p

    Btw, I'm slightly concerned that Pau isn't playing, I was hoping he'd stink it up with us like he's been doing recently. Him not playing is actually better for the Lakers.

    Our chances of winning just went up with Gasol out. Can't wait to see
    How this goes.

    I expect Lakers to be fired up after the loss to Magic and Kobe calling them out. Hopefully our guys remember the bl

    That's a blessing in disguise for the Lakers with the way he's been playing.

    I swear, Joey Crawford will ruin the game. Normally, I'd say we are going to get this for sure. But with Crawford, anything could happen.

    Gasol in the high post is very effective at feeding the ball to Howard in the paint. Even if he is not scoring a lot, he still makes a difference like this and spacing the floor.
