yeah... im surprised!

Lamar on 17, 6 and 8.. Kobe on 31, 5, 9 and 2 steals... most importantly LA is beating Sactown 88-74 with around 8 to go! (Y)

I love it when Lamar attacks the rim. Earler in the season he was just jacking up jumpshots. I hope this continues over a long stretch.

He just gotta remember to be agressive and his job is not to only pass the ball... also, someone shoot Kwame already... I thought he was gonna contribute a bit more like score 14 a game or something... when he joined LA... but boy was I wrong.

EDIT: Did George get a technical???

Yea he is really disappointing, I expected like 10-12 per game from him when he joined.

Devean having a good game tonight also.

EDIT: he did get a tech for hanging on the rim. Good play though.

The refs are having a bad game IMO but at least the Lakers are winning.

I always liked Devean.. back in 03-04, I was hoping he was that 5th starter and would be awesome... ah well, hope George can be awesome for this second half of the season and re-signs with LA.

Also... he scored another jumper after the tech foul (Y) Oh yeah!

Lakers palyign a great game and running away with the win... so yeah.. good game by them. Can't wait for Det vs. LAL...

I still believe George should be starting and Lamar plays PF. Odom got decent size to defend big guys and he can easily drive by them. I dont know why Kwame starts.

Devean is good off the bench. Provides energy and elads the 'second' team... i like him where he is right now. I have hope for Kwame to do better... be more agressive... but my hope is slipping away slowly. He just isn't angry enough!

Is Artest matched up with Kobe?

Nice statlines! (Y)

George: 14, 9 rebs - off the bench right?

Cook had another good shooting game and Smush: 7 pt, 7 ast, 5 reb

All round good team performance... 30 assists really impressed me most!

great game overall by the Lakers. i guess this games like this are what Buss and Mitch envisioned when they brought Odom to the team.

This is what Phil envisioned when he told LA not to deal Lamar away. This is the game that all Laker fans would hope to see... haha

I still wish they got T-Mac but I guess I will settle with Lamar for now. Give me these kinda stats for the rest of the year and maybe then I would say keep him.

If this is how Lakers fans re-act to a season game win, how will you guys react if your lakers win round 1 of play-offs?

Wow... noone posted about the game result?

A loss to the Clippers. Well, I guess we know for sure who is the better team in LA at the moment. Great game by Elton Brand who led them to victory. The Lakers will need to work harder to secure that 8th and final playoff spot!
