    At this point in the last game, the Lakers had a 33-18 lead. It's not like the last game.

    scola can do against odom,

    artest drive against ariza.

    yao back down gasol

    and inside out

    this should be the theme of our offense for the first 3 quarters.

    then they will be in the fool trouble,

    kobe is not going to shoot like this all game.

    lets win this

    tv timeout.

    rick called a timeout right before the tv timeout which hit on the first dead ball under 4 minutes i think.

    Probably a TV timeout. Doesn't count against either team.

    odom is an easygoing guy. the guy needs to up his defense on scola. otherwise scola will eat his head tonight.

    You are wrong, we should worry. We can't play from behind every time, it is tough. We need to keep this game close if we want to win.[/quote]

    Hey, Clutch City was built on playing from behind. :)

    Hand in the face defense by Battier is not going to work against Kobe.

    Long players bother Kobe. Guys like Prince and Piecer can stay with him and the ball. That's why his shooting % is much lower against those players.

    Shane Battier provides absolutely NO fear of blocking his shot. Kobe knows this and just creates space and shoots over him.

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm tempted to hunt down Fisher's Twitter and monitor it.

    Seriously, why are they trying to play Yao single coverage with Pau? That's a recipe for fail.
