The Kobe post-game interview was ridiculous. This team getting better every game? Yeah, and monkeys might fly out of my butt.

What a nail biter. This game went down to the wire and every second scared me. Great game from all Lakers except for Sasha in crunch time.

One thing is for sure off tonight's performance... We don't want Ariza throwing in-bounds passes in crucial moments. Two terrible passes down the stretch when we had timeouts.

I love his interviews from the locker-room, he brings something new than the same ol' dumb questions by the other reporters.

I'd do that in a heartbeat. Nate is the kind of tough player thats gonna be part of a championship team one day. Gritty and fearless. Plays bigger than most 7 footers.

(on a off note: love your screen name. i wanted something like that after i heard kanye saying "trying get that kobe #, one over jordan"

ariza is a terrible passer. just awful. the rest of his game (outside of shooting) is just so strong it more than makes up for it.

3-0 in the Luke Walton era. He had a decent night with 14 pts and 5 rebounds on 5-11 shooting and his +/- was +5, tied with Kobe Bryant for team honors.

The more sure thing is boy is Pau Gasol a valuable player to this team or what.

With LO starting, it changes the entire dynamic of the team. I know that should be obvious, but tonight we saw Powell and Radmanovic at the 5-4 on the 2nd unit.

The way Phil managed Andrew's minutes was decent, but it was very tough for him to get a flow because he had to be playing way more than he should have against a high speed team. This was a night where Pau should have played a lot more Center and KILLED Lee. Gasol would have muredered that SOB.

We are a very good team even without Pau, but the rotation is really messed up and players aren't nearly as effective without him in there.

Pau is a co-MVP this year, IMO.

if bynum could just learn how to balance himself so he can power up for dunks, he would have killed david lee too. that's why i wouldn't mind shaq coming back in a couple years JUST to teach bynum how to establish position and how to power it up (if bynum still needs to learn how to do that in two years, which is doubtful).

and how to write a rap song? i think kareem is enough, the key is bynum himself.

Actually 4-0. But you can't seriously believe that Luke had anything to do with it. We've won because we've been playing our ass off, against some very weak competition, as opposed to anything to do with Luke.

Gotta give Walton some credit. He's at least contributed while playing with his passing ability. Radman gives this team ZERO if he shot isn't falling.

It was a lot more than Kobe, though he was dealing tonight, no doubt.
