I'm calling a loss. Houston just lost to Memphis, they won't follow that up with a loss on their home floor.

Win. We avenge our previous loss and all will be well (temporarily) in Laker and Cl land.

Loss. No question about it.

Win. Kobe goes off, locks down McGrady, Yao is played well by our bigs and is in early foul trouble.

Pretty much a revenge game for last night. bang

Laker by 9.

Most likely a L. Winning is not impossible, but it's going to be very hard.

Jesus Christ some of you are morons. We still have over 70+ games left in the season. If we can make it out of the 1st 15 games with an above .500 record we've done pretty good IMHO. From there on out it's pretty much a cakewalk, seriously.

Meanwhile other teams who have had a cakewalk thus far (Phoenix), will be up against some stiffer competition.

It's a marathon not a sprint guys.

It is early....but keeping up the confidence right now is really important. It could have a snowball effect on us if too many of these losses happen despite the high strength of schedule.

It's not the end of the world, but there's a big opportunity here to build up some momentum..especially when the schedule eases up.

Looking for a bounce back, hoping for a bounce back. Don't fear Houston like SA; they're back to back as well after losing in Memphis. If we control either TMac or Yao, they're easy to beat. Lakers by 7 / 101 - 94.

Phil wakes the team up from the 4 days rest until yesterday

Kobe puts the icing on the cake in final minutes, Lakers by 3

Vlad has to keep Bonzi Wells off the offensive boards.

BTW anyone else thinks Bonzi looks like a fat Jay-Z.

I wonder how Bynum will play this evening. Outside of the two assists and three steals in game 1, Andrew was rather quiet.

I hope he plays L-A-R-G-E!
