This will also be the return of Earl Clark to Orlando, and I'm sure he's extra motivated to show them exactly why he is starting in the Laker squad and make them regret not using him in Orlando

Duhon is going to show off his bench warming skills as well! He'll keep it extra warm for our rotation players.

Oh he was a fan favorite here, a lot of people were pissed when he was included in that trade..including me. Not sure why Stan didn't give him ore time....

I do think Earl will have a good game, and the fans will applaud him.

Duhon will probably get booed though, lol.

Dwight will most definitely get booed out of the building. Not saying that I necessarily agree or feel good about it, but most sports fans are dumb and only remember the departure and not the entire tenure of a player. They forget about all of the years he totally dominated the paint. All of the 50+ win seasons. The countless hours he spent out in the community, and in children hospitals, in cancer centers, the 100s of thousands of dollars of his own money that he GAVE to local charities. Most people here only remember what happened after that infamous dunk contest. That’s when he turned "Hollywood". That's when he turned from a wholesome, mild mannered, humbled, Christian virgin into the egotistical, self-absorbed, bastard child producing, premadonna that you see today. They see how he held a franchise hostage with his demands to be traded to just 2 or 3 teams. They see his dumb a$$ comments he's made since he bailed. However, they have yet to see the plan that is well in place, the plan by our juggernaut of a GM who has a knack for finding young talent. That single trade shaved 2-3 years off our rebuilding plan. Could you imagine the shape we would be in if we traded howard of Bynum straight up like everyone nationally said we were dumb not to do? Come the summer of 2014 we will have a team full of studs still on rookie deals, plus TWO top 3 draft picks, and enough cap space to sign 2 max FAs. But until then, let us take out our frustrations on this fragile loser!!

I ain't responding back to no Orlando fans. Go Lakers, Go Dwight.

There are too many of them to not see a little bit of everything.

He will get loudly booed as he should... one of if not the biggest drama queen the league has ever seen... Not only did he flip flop on the Franchise/city... he dissed all of his former team mates and management..

Why on God's name would he get an ovation in Orlando? They hate him there. It will be close to Lebron's Cleveland homecoming.

That said go Dwight!! Try to make a FT shot this game too!!

Don't care about this game, let's get Metta a million twitter followers!

On a serious note, expect Orlando to use hack a howard again. Think they did it when they beat us early on in the season.

With the fans booing incessantly every time Dwight goes to the line it could prove to be quite the fruitful strategy! Let's hope Dwight makes his first few FT's and they can that plan early!

I can see it now. The fans boo Dwight so loudly that he tosses his free throw 50 feet over the backboard, bopping a fan on the head, and starting another brawl. Metta meanwhile finds the nearest cameraman and reiterates his desire to have one million twitter followers while chaos ensues in the background.

8-)

I wish Howard went 10-10 from the FT line tonight. Make them Magic fans hurt their vocal chords for nothing

Is Tinnitus a relatively common malady in Orlando? 8-)

“Emotional?! I’ll talk to him,” Bryant said, while seeming a bit exasperated. “Just go out there and bust they ass. Show them what they’re missing.”
