He's not doing to bad, I just want to see him get physical on Amare. Looks like the Sun's are saving Barbosa for later, interesting.
I don't like the pace of the game. We gotta hold the Suns to under 22pts per quarter...and they have 18 points with 5:40 to go in the 1st.
<div class="quote_poster">Brok3n Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">gettin killed right now, need them to play our speed..</div> Exactly. i don't care who you are. No team in the NBA can hang with the Suns at this pace for a full 48 minutes.
Nash with 15 first half assists ( a playoff record and MVP type numbers)...Kobe with 20 (MVP type numbers)
This crowd is really into the game. Everyone in the Staples center is on their feet and going crazy right now. As a player, it must be pretty intimidating to hear all of those people chanting in unison. After going to the Magic game a few nights ago, I was really disapointed in our crowd. It didn't have a playoff atmosphere at all and many people left early in the fourth quarter when the Magic were down by 9. Pretty pathetic fans if you ask me. Hopefully as we continue to win and develop a bigger fan base like Los Angeles, people will get more excited and give the Magic a real home court advantage. Anyways, I'm rooting for the Lakers in this one. I'm not watching the game lived (I paused it for awhile), but I'm really hoping Kobe heats up and helps the Lakers even up this series. The Suns get on my nerves and I'd love to see both them and Dallas get knocked out of the first round by two bay area teams that weren't expected to win.
Like I?ve said before, Bryant?s gonna have to trust his teammates. So far so good, that pass he made to Evans in the corner did put a smile on my face LOL. He is passing out of the double, good job Control Barbosa, make sure he doesn?t become a factor in the 2nd half. <font size=""6"">Let?s go Lakers !!! </font>
