If Fisher plays defense Friday night like he did against the Spurs, Westbrook could go for 30+, 12+, 15+ really really easily.

The Thunder have been tough at home, but we have advantages we must exploit on them.

I want a Lakers win for my Birthday!

Fish will again be blown out by the opposite guard, but we must dominate inside.
KB vs KD sounds sweet as hell!

I'm expecting it, that's why I'm starting westbrook over some other options in my fantasy league. I'm even starting James Harden. pg 's facing the lakers is a fantasy goldmine that have helped me into the 1st place position I am in now.

Let's hope that Fisher gets into early foul trouble. If that happens, we shouldn't get abused too badly. Farmar isn't going to exactly contain Westbrook, but he'll at least make him work on defense to somewhat offset his production. That said, Westbrook hasn't exactly played all that great against us, with exception to the last meeting where the Thunder played extremely well and almost took us out on our floor. He's shot poorly and turned the ball over quite a bit, so let's hope that continues. If he puts up 21/13/7 like he did last game then we'll definitely be in trouble.

Artest and Durant is going to be fun to watch. That's a tough match up because Durant can pull up and shoot effectively from damn near anywhere. Hopefully he's just off tonight, as he has been in 2 of our 3 meetings.

Kobe has to be careful this game. Sefolosha is a damn good defender and Kobe needs to NOT take this as a personal challenge. Stay within the offense and take what the defense gives you, but most importantly, get Gasol and Odom going early.

This would be another huge win for us, and it's especially important since we play the Rockets tomorrow night. Get it done, bitches.

Kobe may come out really aggressive this game. Do you guys see all those articles saying Kobe is the 3rd best player behind Lebron and Durant. There have been a lot of those Durant > Kobe articles recetnly and I'm sure the black mamba has taken notice.

This is one of those rare times I get to root for a Laker win - much like the other night when you all beat the Spurs. I wish you all could play the Thunder and Spurs a few more times this week. :wink:

Looking at your game thread / starting line up its almost not fair. If the Lakers had a better PG the rest of the league would almost have to concede the trophy.

Go Lakers! (I feel dirty...)
