Fri. 11/16 - Lakers vs Suns - Predictions & Comments

Well, we are on pace for 140 points. Looks like the Lakers have bought into the D'Antoni concept.

These turnovers really gotta stop though.

They've made a lot of transactions this quarter.

MW3x3! In one quarter

MWP and Pau are shooting lights out... that won't hold I'm afraid.....

We are hitting shots we've been missing in previous games. We have energy and are moving the ball a lot as well but I wonder if we can keep this pace up.

Our FG% D is awful. Allowing 63FG% to PHX. But we forced 5 TO's.

All these threes from Ron are bad news in the long run.

LA's top scoring Quarters this season:
35 - tonight
34 vs. Detroit
31 vs. Portland
30 vs. Portland

at people just assuming our D is terrible because its the D'Antoni affect

I'm impressed. Who needs D'antoni ... 'If it ain't broke don't fix it'...

One problem solved: we can score and nobody died of exhaustion. That's something.

Now we just have to stop other team from scoring at will, and we're getting somewhere.

I kinda expected Dwight to get more then 2 shots in 8 minutes.

freaking iOS... moving to laptop....

We are trading defense for offense

Ladies and gentlemen your Mike 'Antoni Lakers, he's going to have to show me he deserves that "D" because I don't see it. I realize he's not coaching this game, but it's clearly his philosophies out there. I don't think we can keep this scoring up, but if we keep this pace up, the Suns can.

You don't think getting into a uptempo game would hurt our defense? Our defense in the set isn't that great... but transition D has been horrible for a few years now.... and now we are playing for more possessions on both teams...

(bleep) are making everything, lakers are not playing bad D

man dragic always kills us

it seems like everytime he plays against the lakers he just goes off

The D'Antoni effect. Everyones raining 3's now.

Better showing from Meeks

I think I figured it out: the goal is to score more points then your opponent.

D12 with the grown man move.
