If not both, I expect Drew to be back.

Yeah I hope at least one, but I kind of like this...we know two people are out so we aren't complacent and other teams are underestimating us.

Very happy with everything tonight. Just wondering how bad the Hornets really are.

Can we finish this cleanly?

Come on now. Sasha and Farmar are sloppy as hell out there.

LOL sasha

See, Powell is only 6-7. He's definitely shorter then Luke. I don't know why he's listed as 6-9.

To after to after to

How is that a flagrant?

I knew Collison was a pesky defender because I'm a UCLA fan, but man he's giving our guards fits.

4 point play for Sasha.

I don't know what was funnier Ammo's air ball or the Hornets' alley oop attempt.

Nice shot Ammo, real nice.

But the Machine scores and 1!

I think these guys might be running laps tomorrow (this unit).

DJ better get the post game interview

He should start using the "Deke voice."

He's either going to have to start on the Divac training program (a pack of cigs per quarter) or catch a cold to get that raspy of a voice.

Poor finish by the bench, but good win overall. Would like to see Kobe pass a little more, get others more involved... Ron needs to shoot the open shots and quit passing it. SHOOT IF YOU'RE OPEN!

kobes killin it in the post...no need to pass unless they double - which they did in the 3rd quarter and that lead to all those 3s

Yeah I know, but a few of the shots I thought he should've pasted up on were jumpers. When he was in the post, I had no problem because he was knocking them all down, but I really want to see Lamar and Ron (when he decides to shoot when he's open), get easy buckets from Kobe.

Can't what happened in this game....if we played a great game (well Kobe was great), or the Hornets played the most terrible game I've seen them play in a while.

Usually we rip them a new one, but they find a way to comeback and make it close. This one was just a thorough beatdown....but as I mentioned, the Hornets couldn't buy a bucket. Okafor for Chandler was a bad trade for sure, and they have no depth. Their deep bench might be better than their usual second unit. Collison made Sasha and Jordan look silly in a few sequences.

I wish Kobe had gotten another 40...at halftime I would ahve bet good money he would have gotten it...but the Hornets rolled over and died.

N.O. has sucked all year really. Something is bad wrong with that club. If they couldn't make a run at us down two starters then they're up chit crick.

not much to say about this one, good win against a struggling team despide having 2 big men out. Hope they are both back out there soon..
