    Tonight I cannot help but root for these teams to win:

    Indiana - Against the evil Laker empire...nuff said.
    Toronto - Playing Denver, please Toronto give them one more loss!
    Sacramento - Utah already has one lose more then we do, so what would it hurt for them to get another?
    PORTLAND - Because they are the best team in the world, need a 5 game winning streak and to get space from the teams listed above!

    Go Detroit in San Antonio and Clippers at Dallas too, we need all the Western teams to lose that are in contention with us!

    So ridiculous...Final play was daniels throwing up a reverse layup airball, troy murphy flicks at the ball one handed while falling towards the baseline and the damn thing goes in with zero time left...wtf.

    Lakers went on a 17-0 run to end the third in 2:20...and then puked it up in the 4th :sigh:

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Thanks Troy Murphy! Just another benefit to the Bayless deal. ;)

    Ridiculous? Yes, to blow a huge 4th quarter lead to Indy is ridiculous if you're the #1 team in the league. Honestly, though, I missed the 4th thinking the game was over. Any recap? Where was Kobe? Dude could bring a team back from 15 down in the 4th, so I'd expect him to tear it up in the 4th to protect the "W".

    On a side note, I see we get no help from Toronto this evening. I dunno why they even showed up, at least physically.

    Looks like spurs are going down tonight.

    If Clips hang on (up by7 with 2.5 mins left) then Dallas is going down (go Zach 27 points on 12-17 and 10 rebs)

    And even Utah is losing . . . by 4 in the 1st :)

    in a month or two you might be rooting for the mavs to beat the clippers. clips starting unit is gonna make some noise i think. good thing they have no bench.

    Lakers didnt make a basket for the first 3+ of the 4th along with 6TO in that period. They took the lead by one late but then Kobe hit a 20footer to take the lead...a possession each with nobody scoring and then that Troy lameness

    Maybe I've missed other mention of it, but has anyone else noticed Randolph's headshot for his NBA profiles (i.e. see it on ESPN.com)? Dude looks ripped out of his mind.

    We already had proof. When Portland lost to Golden State, the author of the recap said Rudy F. argued an "obvious foul". Only a Laker fan would put something like that in the article.

    Clippers gave up a 16-2 run in the final 4 mins to lose.

    bench minutes played - mavs 130, clippers 25. clips starters probably exhausted.

    For 12/3, I will root for these teams to win:

    Philadelphia - Against the evil Laker empire...nuff said.
    New York - We would be the last undefeated team at home.
    LA Clippers - Put more space between Portland and Houston.
    Miami - Utah already has one lose more then we do, so what would it hurt for them to get another?
    PORTLAND - Because they are the best team in the world, need a 6 game winning streak and to get space from the teams listed above![/QUOTE]

    San Antonio beat Denver for us.

    For 12/5, I will root for these teams to win:

    Washington - Against the evil Laker empire...nuff said.
    Indiana - We would be the last undefeated team at home.
    Golden State - Put more space between Portland and Houston.
    Toronto - Utah already has two losses more then we do, so what would it hurt for them to get another?
    PORTLAND - Because they are the best team in the world, need a 7 game winning streak and to get space from the teams listed above!
