Would be nice to spring an upset after that meltdown last night. If I were Luke Walton I'd have the Lakers play zone until we prove we can beat it. Same for every other opponent from now on.

Won't surprise me if most the calls go the Lakers way tonight. After the Rockets game and Lakers defending with hands behind their back, NBA will strive to protect their star, Lebron.

I am prepared to get slaughtered tonight, and I'm not going to trust a hope that we'll win until the game is over.

after losing to the crappy knicks last night I would not be shocked to see us beat the lakers tonight cause thats what we do beat the good teams and lose to the bad teams.

Kind of an ironic statement, given our complete inability to exploit a completely unsophisticated zone defense FOR AN ENTIRE **** QUARTER.

Not a bad half quarter. Gotta start hitting from deep though, and cut McGee off from all that cherry picking.

Spectrum Center jumbotron just ran fake PSA advising parents not to raise bandwagon fans. Then spotlights fans with Lakers jerseys in crowd. Brutal.

I love Miles. He misses his first two threes (good looks)but didn't get flustered, doesn't change a thing, stays calm pulls up and hits his next two in the flow of the offense with no hesitation.

Boxscore watching until I can watch the game later, what's up with Graham getting PT?

The Lakers are 10-15 from behind the line. I expect them to cool off in the second half, but the perimeter defense needs to be tighter. No slacking off your man, if he's hot.

Lucky to only be down 7 as poorly as we played for stretches. If not for Monk and Miles that may have been a totally joyless first half. I hope they bring even more of that energy.

Lebron with 10 FT attempts, Charlotte with 5 FT attempts. Totally legit.

No one is able to run with LA without looking terrible except the young guys. Miles and Monk looked good out there going up and down with them so I think Borrego figured he'd see if Graham had that same effect.

Kemba 2-13. I mean honestly at what point do we consider giving him a night off?
