    The Lakers are coming off of a great win against the Blazers, and Kobe is still on fire. The Sonics crushed the Bucks by 30 on Friday, and play their first game with Ray Allen, Elden Campbell, Kevin Ollie, and Ronald Murray tonight.

    Keys to victory for the Lakers:
    1) Keep giving Kobe the ball, Ray Allen can't stop him
    2) Hold Rashard Lewis and Ray Allen under wraps, they can't alow either of these guys to have big games
    3) Pound the ball into Shaq, Elden Campbell has no chance against the Daddy

    I wouldnt be surprised if they put Lewis on Kobe instead of Allen.

    Kobe needs a big game if they have a chance. Also feed the ball to SHAQ.

    They do those two things adn they will win easily tonight [​IMG]


    Damian good to have you here [​IMG]

    Lakers should have no problem with Seattle tonight. The Sonics are soft and have horrible team defense. Lakers need to catch Phoenix.

    With a win tonight, the Lakers would take the 7th seed.

    The Lakers defense is horrible, it was good for the first 4 minutes of the 2nd quarter, but then it just disappeared.

    Kobe is once again on fire, with 25 points, and Shaq is playing very well, with 17 points. The D on Allen and Lewis is particularly bad, both have 18 points.

    Hopefully we can come out with more intensity on D in the second half. Fisher is making some sweet passes tonight. Also Kareem Rush had a career high in Assists with 5 in 3 minutes.

    For the second half...

    All I want is better D on Allen and Barry. I'm sure that can be handled. Plus, more awesome passes to Madsen. I'd die a happy man if I saw Madsen to a 360 or windmill dunk. haha.

    So far Kobe is shooting 10 of 19 and has 27 points. Lakers down by 1 though.

    Looks like we have this game. Horrible defensive effort, but we are still up by 99-90. Ray Allen is a horrible defender. No wonder him and George Karl didn't get along.

    Kobe goes for 40 again, but more importantly we got the W and are now the 7th seed.

    Man, their D on Kobe in the 4th quarter was really good.

    The team got distracted by the Kobe situation, and it ALMOST cost them a win.
