Brand and Maggette will be playing, so it's not going to be a very easy game by any means. The recent news about Bynum has also made me less interested about this game. Hopefully our boys will come out with good energy tonight, no more sluggish starts.

Lakers off to a sluggish start again. Fisher with the long 2....ugh, why can't they just take a step back.... Kobe bulls his way in for a layup, lead down to 2, Lakers on an 11-2 run.
Smush Parker just made Luke Walton his bitch. Walton is the most blocked guy in the league. Do you think he gets embarrassed by his suckyness?
This is like a half-assed gamethread. Meh. Farmar hit a crazy ass shot at the end of the third, we're up 73-61 even though Kobe is off tonight.
Kobe, Odom, and Gasol played 34, 34, and 30 minutes respectively. This is great News since we have a game tomorrow against the Hornets.
Dacos is awesome. He has such a soft touch for a big man. He kind of reminds me of Chris Mihm pre-injury form
The Lakers need to stop playing piss poor first halves. They always have to play catch up. We need to start dominating from START to FINISH. none of this late game heroics. That wont cut it in the playoffs.
Uhhh....weren't we up by 11 after the first half? The first quarter was pretty bad, but they stepped it up and played some great defense in the 2nd, allowing us to get the lead, if I remember correctly.
