I wouldn't mind Kobe sitting this game and the next but knowing Kobe he doesn't sit this one out.

+1, highly doubt he will sit out even though he won't be efficient he's going to play

Man, it sucks that Kobe had to get injured. We're kind of rolling and this is one of those games I really wanted. Hopefully we pull through regardless. Bynum will definitely be put to the test tonight.

If we can take this game though it would be absolutely huge because our next isn't until Friday and that's against the Wolves, a team that we should be able to beat without Kobe.

Silver lining, this could be an opportunity for 'Drew and Pau to further assert themselves. Blake had a great game against the Mavs, maybe he can turn in on with more minutes.

i'd be shocked if kobe doesn't play.

http://blog.lakers.com/lakers/2011/03/1 ... -decision/

Bryant sprained his left ankle in the third quarter of Saturday’s win over Dallas and was unsure about his status for the Magic game, but Phil Jackson told reporters that the ankle was “much better” on Monday morning.

Assistant coach Brian Shaw told us that if he had to guess, he’d say Bryant would play, citing the fact that … well … Bryant has played through more injuries than any player he knew, and had the “highest pain tolerance I’ve ever seen.”

I honestly want to see Kobe sit this one out. Not just because of the severity of his injury but I want him to see how this team performs a full game without any of his scoring against a upper echelon. I especially want to see if any of our big men take over the game as they should.

I expect PJ to do some analytical work this game.

pau really needs to bring it tonight. the best we can hope for is bynum canceling out whatever production howard brings. i almost always expect nelson to torch our PGs so were gonna need someone to make up for that with an injured kobe.

then again, i wouldnt be suprised if kobe dropped 40 on 50% shooting.

this feels like such a strange game. plus im skipping class to watch it. lakers better not effing mail it in.

Bynum vs. D12. Should be good TV. Let's go Bynum!
