He hurt his fingers I think, he's going to be out for about a week. What I do know for sure is the Lakers just beat San Antonio in San Antonio by 10!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting bigballer111:</div><div class="quote_post">does anyone know what happen to devean george?</div> Yeah not sure. I can only assume he was sick or hurt. I don't think its that serious or we might have heard about it by now. But anyways.... Great win by the Lakers... if its one thing this team can do well its rebound the ball. When they put in the effort they are a very good rebounding team. Thats what won this game for them. Well that plus balanced play again from the starters.
Congratulations to the Lakers for the biggest win of the year!!! Everyone came out to play today and like I said they were going to beat them by 10. Luke Walton made a pretty incredible layup today. I like the way he came out to play because 13 points and 10 rebounds was huge for the lakers off the bench. Odom played a consistent game with 13 points, 9 assist and 8 rebounds shooting 6-8. He had a really solid game defensively as well. Smush did an awesome job guarding Tony Parker. Smush Parker is really developing into a better player now. Kwame Brown also played extremely well defensively. Even though Kobe wasn't on today he still provided the points he normally does. I thought the Lakers woulda blown the spurs out if Kobe shot the ball better.

But he hit five shots in a row at one point I think in the second quarter and [rpbably shot 50% since then. Those 10 points he poured in in the second quarter was really the cusion the Lakers needed. They just traded baskets with san Antonio after that.
^ I agree, if Kobe had made 5 more shot's it would've easily been a 18-20 point win. His teammates really stepped up tonight. As for George- he sprained his left wrist. AND ONE MORE THING! LA has just taken sole posession of the 7th spot in the west, as the Hornet's lost by 2 in Indiana!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting shapecity:</div><div class="quote_post">Good stuff! I might have to do the same. </div> Shape, we did it! (by we I mean Lakers)! Picked up 2 grand, cashed that bad boy out, and making sure I don't make any bets for a while. Did you end up betting? I hope so, I'm glad I didn't take them +8, I just had a gut feeling we were gonna take this one, just like when we won at home against Miami, picked up 1200 that night too =) Great game Lakers!!!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting bigballer111:</div><div class="quote_post">illmatic where do you bet at?? Man I woulda made this bet lol.</div> Yo bigballer, I bet on www.sportsbook.com
Luke Walton had 10 rebounds against the Spurs?!?! WOW. Wait,so this was the Spurs 5th game in 6 nights? Is that correct? So that means the Spurs actually played a back to back to back at some point?!?! Wow. Never heard of a back to back to back. Anyhow, im asuming Odom continued his stellar play. Lakers coming up with HUGE wins against the best teams in the league, its really unthinkable. I also have a question, are lakers fans happy or unhappy that the Kings beat the grizzlies?
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">are lakers fans happy or unhappy that the Kings beat the grizzlies?</div> *****! I hope your being sarcastic because of course were unhappy about it- as of right now it doesn't matter because the Lakers just grabbed the 7th seed, but since it's such a close playoff race that still sucks...
yeah we would have, we're chasing Hornets right now, not Grizz, well actually we're past the hornets, chasing the Grizz now =)
Tough schedule ahead of us but the way the lakers been playing as a unit im not too worried. They should be able to beat seattle sonics this Sunday. Who do you guys picture us playing in the finals and who would you want to face?
hahaha well i think L.A. could be included in the teams that beat both Det and S.A. i think there are 6 of them! Kobe's the best he was off on his shot so he took it hard to the basket good all around play for the lakers
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting GiantMidget:</div><div class="quote_post">I see a dominant double digit victory for the Spurs on the horizon.</div> A what?
^Who would think Luke Walton would have 10 rebounds and Duncan would go for 12 and 4? I mean come on. Some of these laker games are just WEIRD.
Its probally weird because of the lakers inconsistency to play as a team and the lack of effort they bring to each game. They usually do really well against good teams and bad against bad teams.
