Lakers 113

Lakers continue to go inside and Bynums' found some real motivation lately.

Raja Bell? please, we got bigger fish to fry

As long as they got Boris Diaw, we will own them. Lakers 103-92

They give up 93 ppg and are not to be taken lightly. We better be ready.

Bobcats were playing pretty decently the past few games.

Do not help out on Raymond from the guys guarding Boris Diaw or Raja Bell, as they are shooting 3 pt'rs at over 40%.

Rick12322 · Franchise Player Joined: 27 Jun 2005 Posts: 19164

If Fisher can't stay in front of Felton then put Ariza on him. Game over.

Andrew has never had 4 straight double doubles.

Hopefully that ends tonight!!

Phil made an interesting comment on Fox sports about Andrew's defense. He said earlier in the year he was effective because of our new defense but other teams made an adjustment that countered his effectiveness. Phil said he's just recently made a counter to that which is working.

hmm, it seem to me the other teams didn't try to draw him out of the paint with shooting bigs until we played Utah. And we faced a host of teams after that point that had shooting bigs and it did draw him out of his effective zone. Last Sunday we saw Andrew stay in and around the low box even when Tim duncan went out to the top of the key to set screens. It seems to me the adjustment was to switch Paul or LO onto Tim so Andrew could guard the house.

I hope G-Wall and Okafor have big nights, but I hope they still lose.

Rick12322 · Franchise Player Joined: 27 Jun 2005 Posts: 19164

I noticed him back in the paint ... at least on one play and Spero Dedes commented about it during the play by play.

Just saw a Luke brick, hope that's not a sign of things to come.

Luke on Gerald Wallace, that's going to be interesting. Althought I think so far, Luke doesn't look that bad on defense, when he was on Pierce, he actually played some decent D.

On a random note....I hope the Jazz pull this one out against the Spurs.
