All it is with this team is a damn guessing game. Never know which team is going to show up. I'd like to say win, but their inconsistency tells me otherwise. So, I don't even know. :roll:

And than lose the next one to bring us back one game under. That's the plan.

Hooray for mediocrity!!

I have a strange feeling that we will have a long winning streak coming. Yep, including a win in OKC. We'll see.

That OKC game is definitely a statement game, if we win that its one gna give the team huge confidence...

Of all the Pau trade threads I would trade him right now for Parsons and Patterson. Houston wanted their elite post player.

LawlStudent · Post #16 » by **LawlStudent** » Tue Dec 4, 2012 5:55 pm

Got an ESPN notice on my phone that Pau will not play tonight (tendinitis).

crazy8ights · Post #17 » by **crazy8ights** » Tue Dec 4, 2012 7:12 pm

This one has all the potential to get ugly quick with their scoring power. Need to maintain D

Will be very interesting to see how the team performs without Pau...

Man injuries are killing us this season.

Pau Gasol is technically listed as day-to-day with tendinitis in both knees, but the Lakers will rest him as long as it takes to get him healthy.

"We got to get him healthy," said Mike D'Antoni. "Whatever it takes -- one game, two games, 10 games -- I don't know." ESPN.com also confirmed that there are no trades currently in the works, but GM Mitch Kupchak has told Gasol's representatives that "if Gasol is unable to adjust to D'Antoni's system, the team will have no choice but to search for possible trade scenarios." The veteran PF is averaging 12.6 points on 42 percent shooting this season.
