do you remember 2003 season, Lakers didn't have Shaq. We were going to play Houston Rockets and were expected to loose that game. Kobe scored 52 points and led Lakers to the victory. Oh, he laso dunked on Yao.

Let's hope Lakers can battle with Rockets.

Well, this is really simple, actually: If Kobe goes crazy on the Rox - Lakers will win a relatively close game. Lamar also has to show up, and our shooters have to hit some 3s here and there.

If that doesn't happen, it's a loss. Maybe Phil will play DJ more, who knows? Also, I'm pretty sure Turiaf will have a better game then last time.

I'm excited to see how we start the game, but more excited to see what the team is made of during this road trip. They've been faced with other challenges this season and have come through more often than not. This will be the toughest yet, however.

Let's Go! jam2

Contain T-Mac, don't let Mutombo and others get too many boards, and we should be okay. A hard game, but okay.

Beware of the finger, Mutumbo is still able to play. Who ever is playing center they have to focus and don't take him for granted.
