Haha. It would be impossible for a team to go almost scorless in a whole game. Just impossible

by **Drex** on Wed Feb 22, 2006 3:42 pm

He, I guess I didn't explain too good. The final score was 55-68, and the Lakers made 1 point in the 4th.

Lakers won 99-82.
I think this is the first time they won where Lamar took more than 15 shots.

Thank god for that. I'll never trust nba.com again.

It looks like Kobe and Odom dominated proceeding tonight! Kobe shooting over 50% from the field and behind the arc and Odom scoring 20 and almost grabbing 20 boards. Smush close to a triple double as well.

Edit: Also, is it just me or is has Kobe started to play more intense defense lately? He has got a lot of steals just recently.

I hate T-Mac, but if he ended up at the Lakers I'd be happy. Get him away from the Yao lovers.

by **Fresh8** on Wed Feb 22, 2006 7:41 pm

It's good if Kobe's playing more intense defense. haha. It's kool since Lamar and Smush did well and George and Kwame also playing solid basketball. Great to see Mihm back on the bench.

Looking forward to LAL vs Sac-town. Kobe vs. Ron Ron in 2 days!

It's kool

I'm seriously suprised he didnt type "its kobe" instead of "its kool".

by **Fresh8** on Wed Feb 22, 2006 8:05 pm

I'm not surprised that you commented on that.

by **artestfighttrainer** on Wed Feb 22, 2006 8:06 pm

My comment about the Lakers will be taken from my sig.

Charles Barkley On Phil Jackson handing out books to his team: "He needs to give that team a Bible. Only God can help them. They're terrible."

Steve Nash for MVP unless Kobe gets em to 6th seed or higher in Western Conference.

Pity your comment doesn't have any vailidity to it.

'Opinions are like assholes, Dan. Everybody's got 'em, and they all stink, even a little bit'

I'm not surprised that you commented on that.

Indeed. See above about 'assholes'

:lol:

Hehe, he's actually right. It Kobe and a freak show touring around the country, that's what it is.

these are the type of games which the Lakers need..

Kobe scoring (plus odom playing well, same with smush, george and cook)...brown providing a solid presence instead of the turnover party.

I wouldnt mind T-Mac on the Lakers. Thats more of a Jordan/Pippen than Kobe/Lamar ever would be(If T-Mac decides to sit back and let Kobe do his thing instead of trying to be the focal point).
From what I am hearing, its Slava+Odom+picks for T-Mac.

Such a deal would be a steal for the Lakers, but surely Houston would be after more than that.

by **Carmo** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:08 am

Just a side question, what time is the trade deadline?

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:14 am

February 23rd (which will be tomorrow here in Australia). Traditionally 6:00 PM.

by **Fresh8** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:16 am

3:00 PM it is on Feb 23rd.

A trade by LAL is very unlikely. Nothing's happening.

by **AI2** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:19 am

the lakers need to trade odom and get someone good for him

by **Fresh8** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:20 am

^^ They don't.

They should wait till the summer to sign someone. Also... McKie is starting to practise again...

by **dada** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:22 am

I am sure we are gonna see a couple trades right before the deadline. Whether the Lakers are involved is still iffy but I am praying for something. I would tattoo Mitch's face on my ass if he could pull off a trade for KG or even T-Mac.

by **Fresh8** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:29 am

Nah no trades for LA.. I'm almost certain

by **dada** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:30 am

Cant stop me from dreaming.

by **Fresh8** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:35 am

I won't. haha

Hey.. if u wanna dream... hope that the Lakers get Booze!

I mean I traded for Kwame in Live last year and he came to LA... I remember I had Booze and in the offseason, he might have an opprtunity to come to LA cause of his long injury... maybe the Jazz will let him go haha

Alsthough, once I talked bout it... wat u guys think of a Slava + Geroge + Green + Profit for Booze trade? Utah gets expiring contracts and Lakers get Boozer who would be a gamble cause he hasnt played in ages.

by **beau_boy04** on Thu Feb 23, 2006 3:18 pm

Well it's 9 28 PM Pacific time and a trade hasn't happened yet. Maybe the Lakers are acting a little bit too reserved to make a trade. T-Mac departing Houston makes sense after all because Yao was the cornerstone of that team before T-Mac arrived and I guess by having T-Mac on the same team is degressing Yao's development.

by **dada** on Fri Feb 24, 2006 3:37 pm

Kobe and Lamar got another good game going tonight. I hope everyone is tuned into TNT.

:lol:

The lakers bench reminds me of a gang of go-go dancers tonight.
