He missed Miami's last game but I think whether or not he plays tomorrow will be a game time decision. Ray Allen had a case of the flu also.

well anything is possible with this team but i would say that im not being optimistic saying we wont get blown out. id say im being far more realistic, especially depending on what miami team shows up, because aside from lebron playing like god this miami team is very lackluster with their effort and performances.

I can live with him dropping 40 on us as long as we give a good effort. If we completely dog it and try to defend him with weak ass touch fouls I'm not going to be happy. I want to see the same Lakers team that we saw in the 2nd half of the Charlotte game. Except I want to see that team play a full 48 minutes for one damn time!!! Have we even put together one complete game all season?

Truthfully I'm not sure Kobe has the legs to give us two good halves of basketball anymore. He can do it once in awhile but I'm not sure he can do it night in and night out. We need to hide him for long stretches of game without getting too far behind so we can save him for the 3rd and 4th quarters. Much like the Clippers do with CP3.

Miami, or rather teams with LeBron on them, seemingly always show up to play against us. I can't remember the last time a team led by LeBron laid an egg against us. I don't even want them to lay an egg tomorrow. I want them to play well but I want us to play better! I want don't want to just be able to compete against a bad Miami team I want to be able to compete against them when they're playing well.

The key tomorrow is going to be Dwight. If he can give us a great performance I like our chances of at least staying in the game and having some sort of chance late in the game. I expect a lot of rough play from Haslem, Bosh and Lebron in an effort to keep Dwight from getting into a rhythm. Hopefully it doesn't work.

And if I see one of those muther effers swing wildly at Dwight's right shoulder/arm I'm going to be pissed! That's exactly something douchebag Wade would do!

We can win this. It's gotta be a half-court grind it out type game if we want to.

ALOT OF THINGS would need to go our way for us to even be in this game let alone win it. Last game on the 7 game road trip doesnt help either. Bet the fellas are ready to get back to L.A.

Speaking of half court grind out games it's going to be interesting to see how Nash handles Miami's full court press this time around. Last time he got crushed and turned the ball over quite a few times but he's playing a lot better now than he was at the beginning of January so hopefully he can make Miami pay if they try to press too much.

Lakers can win this game.
They need to slow the game down.
Defensive intensity has to be high.
Rebound well. Don't give up too many offensive rebounds.
LBJ and Wade will get their points but don't let the likes of Chalmers, Miller, and Battier go off.
On offense, don't take too many 3's. That will just lead to long rebounds and fast-break points for Miami.
This is one game they really have to go inside-out on offense.

Let's go Lakers :clap:

Great point!
I'm baffled how bad the Lakers are when it comes to turnovers. It started in the pre-season and we all thought once they get used to playing together, and with Nash handling things, the turnovers will decrease. But they havn't.
They cannot have too many TOs against the Heat.

Its either going to be a close win or horrible beating.
Go Lakers!!

This is very true. He's planning it though so I guess whatever.

Dwight "injures himself". Dwight out for the rest of the season. Mitch states he still will do nothing.
