Mon. 5/2 - Lakers vs Mavs Game 1 - Predictions & Comments

How do we leave Peja open. He can only do one thing and still we let him do it....

What ankle?

Not having an opposing PG shredding us to pieces with their speed is nice to watch

Yeah, he had the step to throw that one down.

need to get drew involved more.

Another outside shooter from Turkey. Lakers can't seem to avoid these guys...

Fisher is the best 1 on 3 defender EVER.

the refs give LO absolutely no love

Lakers slagging on the three point defense again.

damn.. three 3's in a row

If Kidd is hitting open threes like that, this will be a close game unless Fisher closes out on him a bit better.

Lakers letting Dallas shoot too many open threes, and suddenly they are behind

So i guess their gameplan is just shoot 3's, yeah that'll win a lot of games.

I think our only problem is leaving them open for 3.

inside out!!!!! inside out!!!!!

First Peja in transition...now Terry. Why can't we stay with the shooters....

wtf LO. lakers had a man advantage and he just casually walked down the court.

Palming, are you freaking kidding me? With the Rose's and Chris Paul's of the league doing whatever they want with the ball with no consequences Kobe gets called for a carry? An NBA ref can pretty much call carrying at any time they want, when they do I think it's pretty much just to be a d***.

We need to improve our defense significantly.

I don't think this is a big problem though. 3-pt shooting does not win a lot of games. We'll adjust anyway.

this game is gonna south real fast unless they get drew involved in some plays.

Yeah, that was a joke of a call.

The Lakers need to stop giving Dallas wide open threes, they will hit enough of those to stay in the game or even win depending on how the Lakers are faring on offense. The Lakers also need to go to the post more on offense, or else they will become a jump shooting team and Dallas will win that battle.

Are we going to let Drew even touch the ball?

Someone musta been putting a bug in the ref's ear about the palming. They could call it on just about any guard if they want to, and they wanted to call it on Kobe.

what? LO got a call?
