Don't think Pau is starting.

I don't see how OKC can matchup in anyway with the Lakers, we should roll.

Somehow we need to figure out to be physical with KD... Hopefully a combo of Metta and EC can get the job done...

cant stop KD....basically we win if kobe can play like he did tonight and we can win EVERY GAME. i hate posting here because i have been beating this same drum for like 30 games. Seriously plz mr. bryant, please don't get caught up in scoring vs KD... Just play slow and limit their running opportunities by taking care of the ball and taking smart shots. its that simple! got a text alert from espn today after the game, i knew the record was good but I was too lazy to look it up, at least someone at espn is paying attention:

12-2 when kobe takes 19 or less shots
6-22 odd something when he shoots 20+

our WHOLE team goes based on how KB distributes, not how much he scores. its a different game he needs to adapt.

I've had to adapt to the system. Less analysis and smilies, more posting of random gifs 8-)

I agree with the previous poster, Kobe decides how this team will play. If Kobe decides to play smart, and pick only high percentage shots, and shares the facilitating responsibility with Nash, the sky is the limit for this team.

The problem is OkC has much better defenders to guard Kobe than Utah does. Sepholosha and Westbrook can do a far better job than anything Utah has to slow Kobe down.

everyone needs to stop feeling like we're the best team after every single rare win. Beating OKC would be a miraculous win, not an easy one like some people have proclaimed. No one on our team has been able to stop westbrook or durant and the role player open 3 kills us which is what sefalosha brings. Not to mention ibaka who always seems to have an open 18 foot jumper and always knocks it down so if we win i will happily eat crow but at the moment i have no confidence

We're world beaters for a day. Even if it was just lowly Utah we crushed. On Sunday It will be back to reality... :(

I think the Lakers can win and turn the season around. After okc it is an easy 5 game stretch until we play boston. So it is possible for the Lakers to get it going and get back on track.
