I don't like to jinx my Lakers, but I have to say I think we will BLOW OUT the Hornets.

We're going to be so pissed from this devastating Kings loss that we're going to give 100% on defense and not make dumb mental mistakes.

kobe's shooting touch just came back.....now his teammates SHOULD HELP HIM get W on this one....

we should win this game.. and we will

we'll win......

They gotta win! I can't wait for them to win this game so I can forget about that nasty loss!

better win it!!!

If Kobe had made his free throws we could have won! Don´t get me wrong! Kobe had an unbelievable game and was phenomenal.Its just bad luck and had Cook or Kobe or Odom made one of those freakin treys we would have won! Damn Kobe should have took that shot but now move on guys! My prediction
LA 113 NO 96! Kobe 39/11/9!Burning Wesley

If the Lakers played any semblence of defense, they woulda won. Or if Atkins, Butler, Mihm, and Odom decided to show up. They all disappeared last night, in what Rudy T calls "the biggest game of the year"


I think we have the makings for a future Sacramento Kings team...


But its still early.


I really don't care about this upcoming game. They better win. I want them to make up for the two dismal defensive performances against Phoenix & Sacramento by sweeping the back to back road games against Milwaukee & Chicago.

Anything less will be untolerated. It's one thing to have growing pains, its another to lose to every single quality NBA opponent, and not play defense along the way.

i agree with you we have to win our 3 next upcoming games especially the back-to back.

I guess Kobe will always take the blame even if its not his.

The other key Lakers shot 15-46... that's 32% (who am I referring to?) Odom, Butler, Atkins and Cook.


If Kobe shot that, guess who'd get the blame? Well, those guys DID shoot that.


But even despite that, their shots weren't falling and they did even worse than that by not playing defense!

I think this should be a pretty easy game

I wonder if you will blow another 43 pt lead

The rout it out and the Hornets will be stung to death.

Some people just go straight to the forums and don't look at the front page, so that would be unfair to them.

Mihm showed up (15 pts. 7 rebs.) but played for just 21 minutes.. and was taken out after he helped the Lakers take the lead (that is why he disappeared.)
