We need Dwight domination tonight! Somehow he needs to find a way to bring it!!!

Expect Kobe to either have one helluva game or go down in flames trying to make up for his poor shooting performance in the last game.

Paging Earl muthereffing Clark!

Go Lakers!! :clap:

In before the win! Go Lakers!!! Might not be able to watch this one since I'll be busy :eyebrows:

Kobe System · Post #5 » by **Kobe System** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 11:48 am

I would like our defense to be like this:

Metta on Paul
Nash on Billups
Kobe on Butler
Clark on Griffin
Dwight on Jordan

We need to match their energy. Especially when the second unit comes.

Too busy to watch the Lakers vs the Clippers? No wai!!!

I have a bad habit of putting too much emphasis on the outcome of any one game but I firmly believe if our team has it in them to dig deep enough to win this game they definitely have what it takes to finish out the season with a good enough record to make the playoffs. A victory over a very solid opponent like the Clippers will confirm to me that we've figured out what we needed to figure out to play good enough ball to be a force the rest of the way. And if we're playing at that level now we should only be that much better once we get Pau Gasol back.

Dwight was great last game but it's still very clear to me our team is missing Pau right now. I hope we can win enough games while he's gone that him coming back will actually mean something to the team!

Big game! A victory against the Clippers heading into the all-star break would have me..

I want to switch up Kobe and Metta...I feel Kobe might not take Butler seriously and he'll have a field day(remember a game,I think it was last season where he was making everything)
On CP3 he'll expand more energy,but he'll at least try to make it difficult for him....he did a good job on Paul the last game we played against them

I have a feeling Dwight will have another breakout game, if Kobe continues to share the ball.

I want Metta to guard him majority of the game. Then I'll put Kobe on him in the closing minutes of the 4th. I don't want Kobe to waste his energy guarding Paul throughout the game.

Would like to see how the team responds to Dr. Buss' news

Clippers present matchup problems any way you slice it, but the last guy I want guarding Paul is MWP. I mean cp3 will make him look silly, I rather have Clark defending him. either way lets get this win

Laker game will come down to two things, Kobe's scoring and turnovers. We'll have a fighting chance if Kobe comes out aggressive and scores atleast 30 points and if we can keep our turnover count under 12. Sadly both parameters have to be true for us to have any chance.
