I'm glad dudley did well on kobe in a lakers win. kobe can look at the game tape now, see how dudley played him and make adjustments. just like durant on kobe in the last series. kobe erupts for 30 points again next game, i'm positive

Kobe did the exact same thing in this Game 2 as he did in Game 2 versus the Jazz, he laid back in the weeds and got some guys going. This is good for heading out on the road. When we went to Utah, Kobe had his best offensive games and we ended the series right there in their building.

Good game. I was talking smack beforehand so I figured I owed your board a congrats on the game. Tied going into the 4th, you just ripped PHX's d apart. I'm a pretty big optimist and this looks like a sweep now. Thank you for saving us from spending 100 million on Amar'e.

first of all, BYNUM was big. although little minutes, he did a very good job while in there with his length. although he doesnt need to jump to block shots on guys 6feet tall. just hands up and get lengthy. jax is resting him which is good. we will need every ounce of energy with bostons inside game.

secondly, props to the old man hill. Ghill did very good, he was buryin those jumpers. but i like what the commentator said, the LAKERs will give up 2pt shots and match them down the floor, rather than let them fly from the 3line and get on a serious run. but give hill props, he showed up and gave a good game.

third, gasol was unstoppable. laughing all the way to the bucket.

4th, artest is hittin his shot. that is HUGE for us. down the stretch of games, manage the clock and work it in. but just gettin points and adding to the point total is huge.

great win. this series is over.

Kobe has played a stretch of absolutely perfect games since Game 5 vs OKC.

nice win...the only thing that drove me nuts was kobe leaving dudley open. this game could have been over in the third if he had just stuck to dudley. i look for the lakers to atleast split in phonix,but who knows this could be a sweep.
Only on realgm is 27,000 points, 5 rings, 1 rs mvp and 2 finals mvp considered overrated!

Wow ! Just like I said before the game. It was a bit closer. :D

But in general, what makes me feel pretty optimistic about our team is that the Lakers can improve in Game 3 & 4 while the Suns pretty much showed their best in Game 2, considering that Nash will be guarded at least the same way in Phoenix.

In Phoenix, they have to slow it down much more, I think.

Good game overall ! Lamar was gooood again and pretty much owned Amare for the 100th time. Kobe, that's the Kobe I want to see once in a while, getting some double-digit assists and making it even harder for the opponent. Pau. Pau has POWed the Suns tonight !

Very happy that at least against the Suns, Farmar will get his easy buckets that'll boost his confidence for his much problematic jump-shot.

On to the next game !

Really now? It was tied going into the 4th quarter. At least be a good sport about your wins. You've been there before, act like it.

He cheated off of Dudley the entire game last night. Don't call that perfect basketball because I wouldn't. I imagine Bryant will check him game 3 now that he knows Dudley will continue to embarrass his ass. 5 - 5 from 3 and not a single one was contested that I can remember. Leave it to Bryant to play down to his competition on the defensive end.

Good sport my nut. Letting a little trash talk knot those panties, huh? This isn't the fluffy Suns board, Tina. Coming in here and telling us to be a good sport about a team that knocked us out of the first round 2 straight years? Shoo fly. And take your mandarin colored granny panties with you.
