funny thing, i was completely emotionless last night as we lost. i just closed my laptop, turned off the tv and went to bed. thats not a good sign. it didnt bother me at all. perhaps because i never expected us to win and even when we were up i expected the lakers to win.

Same. The game finished around 1:08am. Usually I would lay in bed until about 3:00am thinking about the game.

Not last night though. Last night I was asleep by about 1:34am.

How he plays over the final 12 mins will define him as a player.

He was not great in the 4th. Not great at all. He really needs to work on running a team in the half court and creating for others.

I guess it's because I'm a new fan. I haven't become numb to the lolcat ways just yet.

Mullens was 0 for 8 in the 4th quarter.

Just took a look at the Lakers GT to see what they said about Hendo's dunk when it happened:

Well the Lakers finally figured it out in the 4th.... double team Kemba (or Sessions...or even Gordon at the end of the 3rd) at the top of the key and trap him and our offense fails and we can't get a shot off. We have no other threat on offense because no one else can create something. Hopefully Dunlap has been working on a solution to this.

Like a Mullens jump shot?

Or dump it down low to Biz, Haywood, Diop?

Dunlap really is in a tough spot in trying to get creative on offence.
Our only hope at the moment is that MKG finds a way to score. But he's just going to drive 1 v 5 as well.

He has had some success posting up as well. So have Biz and Mullens. So who knows.
