Have to win this game. 1) They swept Lakers last time. 2) Two games after that are almost guaranteed losses the way this team is playing.

I wonder if Morris will get more minutes

This is a HOME GAME for the Lakers, btw.

Boston and Oklahoma City play on TNT before the Lakers, so expect another delay.

Lakers-Clippers means more to Clipper fans. At the end of the day, it still counts as one game.

I care more about Dallas coming to town and seeking revenge on the team that swept us.

I don't care. No wins will satisfy me until we beat the Clippers...thankfully, just have to wait 10 days.

^It's been 3 straight to the Clippers since the pre-season game. Sigh.

I hope Odom does not have a point to prove. Go Lakers.
I hope we don't need 62 in three quarters by that one.

Kobe will be limited to only 29 points. But Kobe will assist on all of Bynum's 40 points.

Kobe: 29 points, 7 rebounds, 20 assists, 13-13 FG, 3-3 from 3 pt

Bynum: 40 points, 27 rebounds, 20 dunks

Gasol: 12 points, one look of bewilderment on his face

Walton: 1 minute, 3 turnovers

World Peace: one ejection

Dirk: 30 points, 24-24 FTs, one fist pump

Odom: number of points = number of times they show Khloe on TV

Terry: 21 pts, 7-7 from 3 pt
