Thanks DB!

The Suns played a great match - they shot 56% from the field. I kept thinking that they would stop hitting their shots at some point, but it just didn't happen.

I think our chance was at 75-70. Kobe was on fire, but we should always go for the highest percentage shot. Even if he is shooting 80% right then, passing the ball to Gasol for the dunk is always a better play. Because he is on fire, he draws the double- triple- team, which opens the field for Gasol, who is our most efficient shooter. We should had passed the ball inside on a couple of those attacks. We rushed when we didn't need to.

I guess Ben Howland couldn't teach Jordan Farmar how to run a traditional fast break?

It's amazing to watch him screw up the most traditional 3 on 1 breaks with awful decisions.

Nice comment about Luke Walton -- his whole career is made up of those moments where he snatches a bad result out of something almost promising.

No need to panic guys, Phoenix played very well tonight.

They had plenty of reasons to come out with this motivation, we beat them three times this season already they didn't want to get swept for the season series.
Same thing for the Boston and Detroit game. The Pistons didn't want to get swept for the season series.

48-12 NBA Best STILL and were coming home to Staples Center to play the Grizzlies and Wolves.

We still gotta alot of reasons to hold our heads up high fellas. Let's move on


Somehow I can't feel good about saying "The other team didn't want to lose, so we shouldn't feel bad about giving them one." We need to buckle down and figure out how to win when everything is going against us; otherwise, we will be the new Dallas 2009 edition.

I think the Suns are an infinitely better half court team WITHOUT Nash.

Very disappointing to sit through that in person.


My condolences. Ohhhh man can I relate to that feeling. I get to see the Lakers in Rose Garden games, and too often I leave so pissed I can't sleep.

Here's hoping tomorrow's game is consolation. A Rose Garden victory next week would be even better!
