Play for the full 48 minutes and execute on both ends.

The bench needs to show up, they should be well rested since they took Game 1 off.

It'll be interesting to see which laker team shows up for the rest of the series. Game 2 will be important. Lakers have been giving up double digit leads the entire season. Please don't give any more games away Lakers. Just (bleep) dominate.

kobe needs to be out on the floor more than 35 minutes

If its another close game down the stretch, we could be in trouble. This team has been absolutely pathetic in crunch time the past several weeks.

I cant remember the last time we actually executed and managed to pull out a tough game. Ever since the 17-1 stretch, we've repeatedly (bleep) up in pressure situations (with the exception of the near-choke job salvaged in Sacto), with inopportune turnovers, dumb fouls, and just flat out bad decision making. It was all on display last night, especially in the last minute of the game.

Denver, Utah, OKC, NO in Games 1 and 4, and last night - its almost like seeing the same script over and over again.

Our ability to out-execute the other team when it matters has been our greatest asset the past couple of years, but lately we couldn't look any worse. Really strange to see this from a veteran team, and a bad omen going forward.

If the frontcourt shows up, easy win.

We won last night, the Lakers beat the Lakers..if the REAL Lakers show up tomorrow, EASY victory..they will get another big lead, but this time HOPEFULLY will have learned their lesson(Yeah how many times have we had to say that!) and not blow it again.

I don't CARE what anyone says. WE are winning the next two games to take control of the series. DUH, WINNING the next two.

game one was played at dallas' tempo.

the lakers need to slow it down and play at a more deliberate pace, and we'll be successful.

Must be the lack of the sleep..but i really dont feel like were losing this series.

Were not losing the next game. Phil will call his timeouts. Gasol will show some type of agression, and Odom will dominate.

I want to slap that stupid smile off cubans fat face.

There is no reason why we shouldn't throttle the Mavs in each game of the series. Hoping for some brain transplants before game time. If not this is going to be a disaster.

I wish the game was tonight..I can't stand losing a game then having to live with the drama for two days. Could hardly sleep last night, whenever I woke up I would think to myself "OMG I can't believe we blew a 16 point lead" Let's get this W tomorrow
