WMC 12/13: Mercy kill. (0-4)

Artest and Dwight are out today? I am a little nervous of this game.

Even if we have them I am still nervous, we lose a lot whether we are healthy or injured. Needs wins no matter what.

The Nets were the favorites anyway. Ron is getting a little rest, Howard too...can't do anything about it.

Now we should focus on going at least 4-3 on this trip...having lost a game already and games vs. Nets, Celtics, Bobcats and Heat ahead...could get ugly. We have to win 2 of those 4 games at least or else we will be done like a turkey.

We don't play the Bulls; it's the Bobcats.

We have to win the CHA game. Same with tonight. I'm calling a BEAST game from Kobe. He'll hit at least 25 points tonight.

^Boston and Cha are winnable games; hopefully Dwight will be be back Thursday...

I was thinking we have to take BOS as well. Damn, I really hope we get a win tonight. First trip to Brooklyn & Barclays....kind of a "big" game. Kobe loves these games. It's not on national television is it?

this is why it would've been nice had we added a player as soon as that injury exception was approved, would've given said player enough time to get a few practices in but nope we keep having to bank on 2nd rd bozo's, no disrepect to Sacre at least he tries hard but end of the day he's still the last pick of the draft, I dont know how we can be confident with Ebanks/Sacre as our fall back guys when crap like this (metta/howard) situation arises.

^ yup. Heavy minutes for Jamison/Meeks tonight. Kobe will probably play "SF" for large stretches.

Need a big night from 'Tawn on the boards. Same with Kobes.

weve beaten brk already this year at home we can do it again! even widout 2 of our starters

Antawn better step up today. I supported him lately, even with all his defensive "deficiencies". He played smart and really contributed on the offensive end, and we'll really need him today. I except at least 15 points and good rebounding as usual.

I also expect Nash and Blake to chuck more.

Well, without World Peace...the shots would go to those who can actually shoot. Defensively, though is where there will be a drop. Maybe Clark can offset it.

hopefully no one made a late night foody call

Crash sucked this season but I expect him crashing the board and stealing the ball tonight.

I'll take 4-3 if we finish off the roady with a win @ Miami.

They have a solid bench with Blatche/Marshon Brooks/CJ Watson/ I'm really worried about the amount of points there bench might put up today.

don't forget hitting threes. dude morphs into reggie miller against the lakers.

Gutsiest win of the season!! I'm incredibly proud of the team for this W. Brilliant!

great TEAM win, wanted to Harp on Pau weak play today but just hope he's ok and its nothing severe.

20 offensive boards for the Nets lol

Is gasol gonna be out for the season?

We so need to sign another big man!!! Great game!

wmc: pau went down

Lovin' the title to this win. Role players really stepped up big time. Blake, Jamison, Earl & Nash. And that Kobe dunk..

Great win but Gasol getting hurt is a yet another huge blow if he stays out for an extended time
