BTW, we now have the 2nd largest win differential in the league, 2nd to only Boston.

More than anything else, the guys look so damn JOYFUL playing with each other.

I wonder if Mitch goes up to Kobe randomly and just goes "WHAT, son, WHAT!" and pimp-walks away. Holding a goblet. Or wears a t-shirt that says: "Who's expendable now?" on the front and "Bitchesssssss" on the back.

I feel like he needs to do these things.

I believe he is talking about point differential. With that blowout win the Lakers are beating teams by an avg of 7.7 points a game. Boston is at 10.0 and the Pistons are at 7.6........

He means how many points you win by per game. Not how many wins and losses you have.

Just saw this tivo-ed.

Man that 3rd quarter was devastating. When guys step up and hit their open perimeter shots, we can blow teams out. Fisher, Farmar, Sasha and Radman...you guys need to bring it every night, or at least a couple of you every night.

Great to see those guys earn Kobe and Pau some rest.

Turiaf was just huge. Hitting long-range shots, finishing around the rim with authority, blocking a million shots. Discouraged the Clippers from driving.

But really, it was awesome to see Coby Karl and Mbenga get some burn and points.

I wonder how it feels to be a Clipper or a Clippers fan, to be subjected to a circus or little league atmosphere. Kinda felt bad for them, they didn't want to get embarrassed but it happened anyways. I still remember 04-05 when teams were beating us up pretty good, so I don't feel too bad.

The game plan is clear. Kobe and Pau are going to do their thing. They're going to carry us. But the blow-out factor is going to be the shooters; step up and hit those shots with confidence. Those bombs will break the opponents' back, it's just good times from there.

It's contagious. When a shooter starts to hit, the entire team gains confidence.

The one defining characteristic of our team is unselfishness. Not only do all the guys pull for each other, but they set each other up. We had 28 assists, but nobody had more than 5 each. Everybody's a playmaker, giving the ball up. Nobody took more than 11 shots (Fisher).

After two games in which Kobe had to carry the team with his late-game heroics, tonight, his teammates told him to sit his ass down in the fourth. We got this.

Nights like these, we truly look like a band of brothers. Kobe, just one of the guys.

And it is a beautiful thing.

I was at the game, the crowd was not to lively as it wasn't the greatest game in the world. Actually I barely paid attention as I was too busy eating and drinking lol. Got free tacos too. Good Times.

Great win! Confortable one with no harm.

Kobe and Gasol didnt need to play too much and the rotation was good.

Radman takes a really important part on the rotation and did good with 10 points. Fisher shooted really good

Turiaf is a beast, i like him even more.

Coby and Mbenga :bowdown:
