Timberwolves @ Lakers - 11/9 - 7:30

[chefy]

another lazy game....phil should play the bench more or at least blake and barnes.

[LA Forever]

I wish our whole 82-game schedule would all be comprised of playoff teams, because that's when the Lakers bring it.

[aroba]

Artest 5-12
Odom 7-12
Gasol 8-13

Bryant 12-28
Somebody tell Kobe not to force things!

Most of his misses were inside though, and a lot of calls didn't go his way, but yes, he was forcing it out there.

its amazing that gasol has an 18-10 game when it didnt seem he played that well.. seems lakers have been like this for a few years.. playing to the level of the opponent, except they have way better chemistry and talent now. usually we have so much trouble with portland, so happy we blew them out so feels like things have changed overall. whats so concerning is that minnesota sucks! they were getting whooped every game. minny and houston may have similar records, but minny was getting whooped. but they did shoot well and love had a career game.
stu was saying he almost wanted the lakers to lose one of these games, and i dont really agree. i think could be enough of a wake up call for them to wake up. denvers comin up but they got their butts handed to them by indiana, so just worrying about phx/milwaukee and hopefully we'll get to at least a 15-0 start.

They shot 38% from the field, not exactly lighting it up. The Wolves just worked harder tonight than they have all year. Yeah they turned the ball over 25 times, but they also completely out worked the Lakers.

The reason they've been getting blown out so much is because the effort and energy they had on both ends hasn't been there like it was in the preseason. Against the Lakers even though they weren't shooting well and were turning the ball over, they were hungry like they were in the preseason.

Hopefully they can keep it going, because they do have talent on the team.

Ugly like a crazy ex-girlfriend tonight. But a Win is a Win.

Crazy Game at the Pepsi Center in Denver Thursday.

Phil will be in their ears these next two days most definitely.

Hey, if you dated her in the first place, hopefully she wasn't that bad looking.

I was thinking the same thing when Stu said that. and hopefully this game was enough to wake them up come thursday. This is really one of those games that the bench could have used to build more chemistry and have our starters rest.

Every one pretty much had a bad game, but the one player that got to me was Blake's turnovers. I hope he doesnt bring that to Denver.

OT: doesn't Barnes know not to wear green in the Lakers locker room?! saw that button-up on post game interview... ... good thing he's doing well in our squad haha

LoL.
She wasn't ugly at all.
An body was on point mainly the only reason why I was messin' with her.

Her attitude was ugly and to make things worse she would try to start SH#! with my Baby Moms and that was a No No.

Seems like kobe was proving to everyone hes the lakers MVP still and not pau. His shot selection and forced shots are killing the lakers rythm and offensive flow. Pau looks like he turned into Bosh with less touches. Only positives i can shed light on was that even tho we got out rebounded the last couple games and kobe being kobe we still managed to get the ugly win.

[Danny Darko]

facepalm at this game.

At least it wasn't:
