i have some feeling lakers will step up this game and wake up finally....and actually beat the clippers by 11...
Lets hope so. I don't like how some fans hoping we would lose and continue this losing streak just because they want Mike Brown to be gone...What happen if we lose the next 10 games or so and Mike brown is not gone? The joke would be on us.
What kind of fans wish their team would lose anyway? We're the Lakers, not a lottery team!

rest up, stevie. this one would have been tough given our current state of confusion regardless. maybe the clippers let up with a star being out, who knows.

To be honest, I think Nash and this team need this win to calm down all the media.
I don't like how media is turning this Nash VS The Team or more specifically Mike Brown.
Nash is not that kind of player at all. Maybe it was his decision to pass the ball early to get Princeton going when they can still afford losing. Maybe he and Kobe have talked about the potential of it and they understand early struggle. Even Howard told the fans to calm down because it's a long process.
Nash didn't come here to get his 10-12 assists. He comes here to win. If all he cares is his regular stats, he could have gone somewhere else to be the focal point of the offense.
My only question is why making it tougher than it already is. Both Pau/Howard can play pick&roll and Kobe won't be doubled team with the other 3 on the floor. The extra turn overs seem like they are trying it too hard.

I'm sure Clipper clowns from that "Clippers topbuzz" website lurk on here, so if you guys are reading this, you guys will probably win tomorrow, but prepare to get the (bleep) kicked out of you on January 4th.

The people on that forum are idiots. They actually believe Sterling is a better owner than Jerry Buss.
