    the game will still be close even with howard out. The rockets have huge issue with not being consistent even at home. Omer and patterson should be beasting but kobe and nash gonna smoke us if he let our guard down. Jamison at center is gonna hurt even more if asik doesnt rotate out

    trap game!:grin:

    seriously i was impressed with cool and calmness our guys showed in last two games when things weren't going smoothly for them nevertheless they were very patient, cool and relaxed, moving the ball and waiting confidently their game to come to them...

    No Dwight or gasol. Should be an easy win.

    Did Kobe rampage in the locker room or something?

    I have a feeling that Kobe either will have one of his best game or worst game of the season. With Pau and Dwight out, the Lakers don't have to pretend to run plays for them and instead just go through Kobe the entire game when he's in. Hope Delfino and Parsons are up for the challenge.

    I'm sure someone can dig up the stats, but I believe the Lakers win/loss record over the years tends to suffer when Kobe shoots in high volume.

    Kobe goes for 50 or at least tries to...and it will take 40 shots. and lakers lose again!

    Howard, Hill, and Gasol are out!

    expect artest to start at pf and possibly jamison/sacre at center. It looks like lakers are deploying their small lineup. We should still run and gun cause they old as F***.

    Who's Earl Clark?
    Saw him come to the game after Karl picked to make the free throws for Pau after the nosebleed
    He drained both of them
    Can't hack Clark

    That's a lot of injuries for the Lakers
    Damn, Kobe.
    You have to play for all four quarter and not show up for the 4th

    ngl, I like the cut of the jerseys, but I wish either the mustard was darker or it'd be swapped out for silver or white.
