My only concern is that Devean George needs to come off the bench...I mean, c'mon, he can't do any worse the way he is, I don't know whether he was fully concentrating and clicking with our HOFs, but he's been taking less shots and seemingly less motivated...another thing that I hate about George is that he can't create his own shot...c'mon, stop, jump, pull-up, attacking the basket, he can't do that. He hardly gets to the line but based on our lack of SFs I guess we have to use him as a starter. Bryon Russell may do wonders as a spark coming off the bench...but personally once we have Rick back I look for Devean to take more of a reserved role...
As for this game, I look for Kareem to score in double-digits again, based on his explosiveness up there in cowtown, so he may do wonders. The Clips may not have Quentin Richardson, whos nursing a sprained hand. Of course, we have the fans and probably the major part of it because we are the Lakers, and they're still the Clippers. The Clippers are 4th in the pacific division and we should give them a game, don't get lazy. Shaq obviously isn't playing tonight so thats not good. I look for the Lakers to bounce back from their woes yesterday, as Fab said, and give it to the Clips. The Clips just waived Glen Rice so he's no longer there...they need the veterans and shooters. The xfactor to me is Eddie House or Marko Jaric. Those guys need to step up for them, but we should contain them. Look for Slava to bounce back.
Clippers 85
Lakers 94
