    I am actually comfortable with Battier guarding Kobe on the perimeter with help defense coming as needed. I am more worried about Odom. He is long, athletic, and excels at almost all aspects of the game. Who will guard the man?

    I am a laker fan and also a rocket fan. I hope they both can compete with their best.
    Rockets win 2 pts 89:87.
    Kobe will post 30 pts up. Yao will not dominate Kw and By. T-Mac will be the key for rockets' win.

    We need the Red-Rowdies to bring down the roof with noise. Especially directed toward Kwame and Bynum, and especially Bynum, who especially needs to be put in his place.

    If we anger Kobe though, might not be too good of an idea, the guy will just take revenge on our team :(

    So yeah, concentrate all your efforts and Bynum and Kwame, and help Yao savagely and voraciously dominate the two.

    BTW I don't like Bynum.

    Chucky Hayes!! He can guard him as well as just about anybody w/ the exception of a KG level player.

    tmac will play. i would bet any money on it.

    not ebcause he will be 100% ready. because the lakers are a tough team and he would make an excellent decoy.

    I'd be surprised if Tmac is on the court tonight buddy...Yao will have a big game, but we're gonna have to put up some good perimeter numbers to pull this one out. If Tmac plays, and I hope he doesn't, he'll be in "settling" mode, not Tmac Attack mode

    Sorry guys! Can't be optimistic about this one.
    Phil Jackson will give another basketball lesson to the stubborn student -JVG.
    No pain no gain. Go Rox. Lakers win!

    I'm hoping TMac will be ready to play tomorrow night. If not, it'll be a tough night. With TMac, they should be able to win this game 94-88. Yao will score 32 points and get 11 rebounds. Kobe will go for 34, but the rest of the team doesn't do much to help him.

    I dunno about this one. Lakers are coming off a really good game with the spurs. I think we lose this one :(. T-mac doesn't play and we struggle to get any offence going. 98-82

    from the game last night, i found out that the Laker offense runs a lot of switches that brought Bruce Bowen away from Kobe, and let him play one on one with somebody else.
    There offense effeciency has definitly improved, and L Odom is a big part of that
    but if we play our game, which is dump in and pass out, make sure we repost Yao, i think we'll be fine, they can't guard him in the block one on one
    but Phil Jackson is a mastermind

    hope we win this one
