”The Matchup”

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<






-=-=-=-=-> Kobe Bryant Vs. Joe Johnson <-=-=-=-=-


Well, as in the recent game in Atlanta, everything may depend on Kobe. Kobe, may focus more on defense because he didn’t do a great job against Joe Johnson in the most recent loss.

Keys to beat the Hawks :

• Pau has to do a much better job against Horford on the boards
• Destroy them in the first 3 quartes as to not have troubles in the final 12 minutes
• Ball movement, as usual
• It’s the first home game after the most successful road trip. Just keep the momentum and beat them

Go Lakers !!!

Discuss…

I am little worried about this game, the Hawks already got us once, and Bibby did nothing but improve them talent wise and experience wise. WAR Lakers!!!!!!!!!!!

this needs to be 3 types of games in 1- they are----

1. revenge game
2. statement game
3. blowout game

Man, I hadn't looked at the Hawks but with Bibby, Johnson, Horford, Williams, and Smith with Childress, Law, and others on the bench, this is a good team, and next year should challenge for the top (if they keep Bibby). A great backcourt, young athletic big men up front, and solid contributers off the bench. I'm impressed.

go lakers!!

Go Lakers

go Lakers!

I heard Bibby is not playing today unfortunate because I'll be at the game

if losing this game does not help the Suns get a high pick....so be it.

Is bibby playing tonite!?

The game is starting at 05:30 a.m. here in Finland...Should i sleep after of before the game!? lol....

I got to watch gasol in stapples, no matter how.

I usually do both. Sleep 2-4 hours before the game and then a couple after.

Go Lakers!

Check out the Hawks game thread. Tribute to Slava.

hopefully horford doesn't punk gasol this time around. lakers gave that last game away.

The Hawks match up well with the Lakers w/o Bynum on the floor.


Horford can hold his own as I told you guys before last game against most Centers, just not the BIG ones.


You have to appreciate Kobe Bryant playing with that injured finger. The West is insane right now! If he missed 6 weeks you guys would likely miss the playoffs despite being what, 18 games over .500 right now?


Enjoy Josh Smith tonight. He's one of the future faces of the NBA.

Vlad Rad + picks for Josh Smith ?

Mitch can do it, so why can't I ?

Josh Smith is going to sign a 5 year 55 to 65 million dollar deal this offseason.


I know that sounds like alot. It sounds like alot ot me as well. Look at what Gerald Wallace got, and Josh Smith is a WAY better player than Wallace.

Some "jokes" are just not funny.

I have this disgust against Horford.. I don't know but I just don't like the guy. His cheap foul on TJ Ford just made it worse. Before the Rookie vs. Sophomores game, he introduced the players but when it was Farmar's turn to be introduced, he asked "what's his name?" (referring to Jordan Farmar)... then he's like.. "oh.. Jordan Farmar"
To me it was disrespect... but that's just me.

I hope we totally destroy the Atlanta Hawks. Let them eat a 40 point deficit or something..

GO LAKERS.
