Look for Dragic and Green to combine for 100 points off of transition baskets. |

Guess how many rebounds Plumlee gets over our bigs?
I say 17 if the game isn't a blowout and he's on the floor. |

I doubt Pau plays. He was complaining after last nites game about the injury. Get real.
So an 8 man lineup vs the Suns. Good luck with that.
Suns 118
Lakers 93 |

The Suns are not playing as they did earlier on, and without Bledsoe are not as dominant. But road game on the 2nd of a back to back and the way this team lacks any defensive scheme...
Suns 117
Lakers 103 |

Barbosa filled in as backup sg/pg last game and scored 21. Sure he'll do that or more vs us off the bench. And I noticed Gerald Green was 2-16 also, bet he goes 12 for 18. |

None of the above.
The keys are legit: score more points and limit Suns to 120 points. _________________ Kobe's Top 5 Dunks, 81 points, MJ last gm @Staples |

Its so funny watching Laker pre-game shows and previews when they talk about how the fans are frustrated and what they need to do win.
Most of the Lakers fans I know are hoping the Lakers keep moving up the draft order. Real Bizarre!! |
