Holy shit we actually escaped with a win tonight! Pau Gasol's statline: 30 points, 9 rebounds, 12-15 FGs, 6-8 FTs I love this guy. Lamar had a very efficient game was well, shooting 5-5 (2-2 3 pointers) and finishing with 12 points! Kobe was great tonight as well. Bring on Miami!

People don't understand how great this guy is sometimes.

Lamar came through in the clutch on both ends last night. THANK YOU LAMAR! Great win last night on the road and a strong showing by Gasol/Kobe duo! Kobe's defense at the end of the game on Hedo was another key to victory.
I didn't watch the game, I slept through it. (Working at 4:15 AM four mornings in a row will do that). I saw some highlights over on LG and the chemistry between Bryant and Gasol is amazing. The Orlando fans even started chanting MVP for Bryant? Every arena Kobe's been in this year, it seems like they've chanted MVP. The fans know, the media needs to learn from them. I can't wait for Bynum to get back. The open looks for him, with Pau working the high post, is going to be amazing.

Kobe might be the most hated player in the entire L, but almost everywhere he goes, they know what's up

When I went to LA @ WAS last week, there were easily more Lakers fans than Wizards fans, it wasn't pretty.
