Good shooting by JJ, tough loss for the Hawks but Kobe did have an great all around game. Good youre able to keep it up. Youre so far, would have been a shame.

wow Odom was great, but Pistons were playing as a team, so that was the key to success, and we all know that is always difficult on offense vs Pistons. Nice win vs Hawks btw

Sat Dec 16, 2006 7:35 pm

Well that was an excellent game, too bad you loss, Pistons are really hard to beat.
Better luck next time :)

Sat Dec 16, 2006 11:55 pm

Marquis, Thanks man... Yeah Odom was awesome, pretty much unstoppable, but You're right. The key to success is team game....

French baller, Yeah, well there won't be a next time, this season :lol:

Sun Dec 17, 2006 1:35 am

Ah I kinda forgot to post after this game ;)
Well Lamar is just awesome, like in real life. I love this guy. Just the allrounding shooting power player I hope Marv Williams could turn into in my dynasty. Thus the loss was kinda unlucky, but the Pistons are just very good. Everybody can score on this team.
Good Luck in your next one !

Latest rumors
Odom satisfied about market, but no about roster stability?

Sun Dec 17, 2006 2:09 am

Oh yeah, Bynum rocks. I really hope he can give you the inside threat you still need, since Odom is not a pure inside player. He showed that he can handle it. Raptors were kinda weak. Bosh couldnt contribute and Jones topscorer says it all. TJ Ford did not jack up one shot after another, that is good. Nice win !

Sun Dec 17, 2006 2:11 am

Bynum was amazing! His shooting also great. It was good chance for Bynum to show himself against poor Raptors' centers and he used this very well

Sun Dec 17, 2006 2:29 am

Bynum??? O, man this is nice. Looks like shooted nice and doed good on defense - 2 blocks 1 foul only. Nice

Sun Dec 17, 2006 3:53 am

hova-, Yeah I like his power... I think he's more powerful than Kwame, I think I'll try on putting him in the starting lineup for Kwame for a few games...

Marquis, You're totally right..

BeByeMiS, Thanks man... Well It was his big night...


Thanks for all the comments guys... I'm happy that you're interested on this one...

Sun Dec 17, 2006 4:00 am

Wow , Bynum what a performance !! its great for you to have a solid back up Center ... you should make him some training to develop his abilities .

Great raptors jerseys , but your new lakers ones looks like crappy stuff :mrgreen: haha , no problem:P

Sun Dec 17, 2006 4:04 am

Thanks man... I got the idea :lol: But I was tired of the same stuff every time, I think I'll change it back a few days later... Anyways, I agree with you and yes, I am training Bynum already...

Farmar was totally unbelievable in the 4th quarter with 18 points…

Box Scores
Lakers-137(OT)
Cavaliers-130(OT)


The Los Angeles Lakers celebrated a magical win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in their home court. Lakers now stand 3rd in the western conference by finishing their 8 game road trip.
Lakers outscored Cavs in the first quarter, by 4 points and extended it to 8 after the second one, but it was nothing compared what Cavaliers did next.
Damon Jones and Larry Hughes combined for a dynamic duo, which bring Lakers a major headache. Cavaliers scored an amazing number of points in the third quarter – 48!!! Lakers defense was worth nothing, though Lakers themselves managed to score 31 points. It all started from Larry Hughes as he connected 11 points in a minute and a half to break the Lakers lead, without their answer. Then seconds later, Lamar Odom fouled out with 6 points. It was a huge headache because Lakers had big rebounding problems after this move. Then Damon Jones joined Hughes and started destroying Lakers. No one could do anything, except Kobe. He scored 17 points in the third quarter, hanging the Lakers from the bottom. Then somehow he got help from Andrew Bynum and they saved the Lakers from humiliation in the third quarter, but still Lakers were hurt a lot.
It all came down to the last quarter, Cavs were leading it by 9 points. When a minute passed, Lakers suffered another hit, Kobe Bryant joined Lamar Odom on the bench by fouling out. Everyone though it was the end for the Lakers, but Jordan Farmar who started the game in the starting five, didn’t thought like that. He provided unbelievable magic for the Lakers as he scored 18 points in the last quarter. Lakers were like new born compared to their defense in the third quarter. They let Cavaliers score only 21 points in the last period and that led to a overtime.
Lakers felt the taste of the win when Larry Hughes got injured and left the game just with the start of the overtime. Then a minute later Damon Jones fouled out and Cavs had only LeBron James scoring. He scored all of Cavs’ 14 points in the overtime. Jordan Farmar didn’t stop, he made 10 points in the overtime, also with 4 assists helping the Lakers get their toughest win this season. Kobe scored 32 points in three quarter, Lamar 19 in 2 quarters, Cook helped with 14. While Cavs’ Hughes connected 35 points, Jones 26, James 25, Ilgauskas 18. Lakers have two more games to play till the all-start weekend, against Knicks and against Cavs, but this time at Staples Center.

Great game. Farmar was stunning..

It's interesting, cause Josh Smith wasn't drafted that year..

Deam EA... :roll:

Sun Dec 17, 2006 6:12 am

Oweeeeee, Jordan Farmar did it in a very exciting match. Must have been very cool to play. I thin he deserved the starting spot in the Rookie-Sophomore challenge with that performance.
And Josh Smith participating ...... n/c.

Mon Dec 18, 2006 2:44 am

-km-, Oh god, EA has done it again... :x

hova-, You don't even imagine, he was playing like Kobe... Very lucky day for him...

Argh, tough loss vs the Knicks. They are kinda hard in live, Crawford played really well.
Your All-Star lineup is very realistic. Stoudamire is maybe a bit strange, but I think he has the potential. the others are just usual picks.
Good to see Kobe in there, even better to see JJ starting for the East at SG.
