Damn good game. Especially for the bench.

What is this for the bench? 30-35 pts? Damn.

I REALLY wish that the Lakers would seriously consider getting Gasol down in the post with about 80% of his touches. That's where he excels and averages 16+ ppg.

Also, down low he get's more rebounds.

Tonight he was great with 8asts though, definitely the best passing big man in the league right now.

As was Antawn, 33 pts and 12 rebounds, are you fucking kidding me!??!?!

Haha, Meeks and Antawn will hopefully play with this rhythm consistently.

Pau was always a monster when he was starting center.  (Championships/Olympics) 

imo alot of his problems stem because he is playing out of position.

Yeah this, I was going to say that you should put Pau at Center behind Dwight, but I don't want to have Jamison come off the bench as a starter because I want him to spark the bench.

Maybe put Hill at PF as starter? That just doesn't seem/sound right to me for some reason.

^uhm,  simple business practice? end of the season most likely.  

 

even if lakers were 20-0 or whatever, no-one signs a contract extension mid season on their initial year.

 

Dwight looks like he is having alot more fun nowadays, hopefully it continues.   Would be nice to have another double double game against his old team tonight.

I doubt it. Something tells me he tests the market. Even though I dont see a better fit then the Lakers, always expect the unexpected with Dwight. Phone Post

He'd be a fool not to sign, even for more money elsewhere he wouldn't be making the kobe/shaq type money he'd be making outside of bball.

I wouldn't care either way, if he don't wanna be in L.A. and within 2 years, be the main focus of the best org & city in the game which will take care of him for life then.... no biggy, gtfo. 

 

Kobe's probably off to europe in '14 and we'll have a shitload of capspace to rebuild.

fwiw.  A good friend of mine is Dwights publicist.   D has bought in completely to the hollywood machine and is in love with the idea of being a celebrity/superstar.   He's already sign several big deals and has tons on the table, was pretty much part of the package to come over here was the Buss family's endless connections to the entertainment industry.  I'm fairly certain he will stay for a while.

loved the WAY we won tonight.  even though it was against the hapless hornets it was the way we were running the offense and playing defense.  good spacing, great rotations and it wasn't all Kobe ball and he still got his points.    hopefully we start stringing out some consistant wins off that kind of play & effort.

Lol at these biased commentators. This is ESPN they're not supposed to be biased commentators. Save that for the Non-espn games.
