If we lose tonight! we will be tied for 8th place with the hornets.
also.... Sac went 0-20 in the fourth quarter last night ... that made me so happy it sort made me forget about LA losing to the bobcats |

It's unanimous. Everygame from here on is a must. If only the Lakers could understand that then they might make some progress. |

Oh yeah. A HUGE L tonight. Look for a PHX like game tonight. _________________ Stephon Marbury on Kobe: "He's the only person on 'dis earth that can do 'dat. He guards people, like shuts 'em down. Then, to do 'dat on 'da offensive end. It's like 'Damn, I can't score on him AND he about to bust my ass." |

3 game losing streak??? I think this will be the game where Kobe is really pissed and will take matters on his own. |

Last night was a must win :roll:
So was Indiana.
We're flaking at a really bad time to do so.
We've gotta win 4 in-a-row just to pull out a 4-3 road trip |

People should stop saying a game is a must win. We need to win to win a lot of games and I hope we don't lose this one. |

And we start the second half on a terrible road trip. News flash. When you're a low seed for the playoffs, every game will count. Trust me, when we're fighting for the playoffs in the end, you'll wish we had won games like these. The best way is to get the 6th seed where we face the winner of the Northwest.
Do you really want to see San Antonio or Phoenix right off the bat? |

If Lamar is out through the all star break winning 1 of the next 3 would be good and 2 of 3 would be nothing short of miraculous. |

We'll see them as well as Memphis beginning at the end of next week. I think we're home by next Saturday.
Should start to get interesting. Good thing our second half season schedule is in our favor.

anyone expecting a win tonight is delusional...if we win tonight it's gonna be entirely on luck and doesnt address our longterm situation
the only way im happy with a laker win from now on, is if Bynum/turiaf have huge games or Smush shows signs of improvement cuz at least that will help us in the future, otherwise its just inconcsistent players having a good night... |

I want the lakers to start moving back in the right direction...if they win this game by playing poor defense and little movement on the offense but get lucky, I couldn't care less, because it wouldn't mean anything substantial...
In other words, yes, I'd rather the Lakers lose if they continue to play poor defense and little rotation tonight, because at least that would emphasize the problems we have and may lead to changes (yea rightt....)
The young guys (and a few exceptions) are the only ones that still give me hope for this team... |
