Lakers are +8.5 underdogs

Evidently Kobe is a little under the weather as well...no determination if he is playing or not yet.

They gave N.O. their first win of the year two games ago and then had their biggest game of the season two nights ago by beating DeAndre and the Clippers.

We might catch them tonight it a "trap game".....hopefully our youth can keep progressing.

BTW IMO more Huertas, less Lou and/or Nick...I think he could really contribute given enough PT

I'm on board with Huertas getting more minutes because he's a good playmaker, but from the little I've seen of him in his NBA career, he's an awful defender.

Hopefully Kobe sticks to the midrange game. Don't need him shooting eight 3's.

I just got home from a Justin Bieber concert, had to drop off my date in torrance. What did I miss?

Well this team has looked a lot better the last four games...... but they still suck.

Yea, not quite good enough to actually beat anybody, but they do look a little better.

Kobe in particular, and not just because he shot better. He only took about 3 hopeless shots, which is down from the 10 or so he was shooting the first week. Only 3 assists, but he was directing traffic and moving the ball. That's the point-fowardish role we hoped he'd play.

What did Tarik do to lose his rotation spot? I liked him in the second unit. Bass is frustrating to watch.
