I would've liked to see Odom with more of an active role... but he picked up some really dumb fouls, dumb not b/c of Odom, but b/c of the refs. Three of them were 100% bs!

The Lakers defense needs tremendous help. They will have to play very well against Sac-town on friday... Vlade isn't ready to make a solid contribution just yet...

Hey guys! I couldnÂ´t write but i heared the game! Great defense from Butler in the second half and Kobe really shut down Redd! IÂ´m pleased with the win but it was tight! James burned us down the stretch and D-Mase went hot in the second quarter!Kobe played really well!
How could Milwaukee outrebound us :mad1:

!It will be tough to beat the queens but on the road maybe they suck! :man11:

Lastly I wanted to mention Caron Butler...

He was on pace for having a horrible game, but just as I recommended benching him, he became a positive factor in turning it around.

Kobe said something during a timeout and that changed how they played the rest of the way...

Caron came up with some steals, his shots were better and they were falling, he also came up with a great dime to Odom for a dunk.

So props to the youngster to not let some bad play affect his overall game. (cough-Devean George).

The activation of Jumaine Jones, means Walton falls back on the depth chart.

Want more bad news? He's probably the next likely to hit the IR when DG comes back.

Yes, that really turned the game around from that point.

FSW was saying he said something along the lines of "we're too stiff out there; let's have some fun playing ball and beat this team."

Way to be a leader Kob' :jam2:

Is your team and favourite player boring or helpless? :man9:

I was at Hooters in Pasadena watching the game tonight. Kobe Bryant was phenominal... I mean, that was one hell of an offensive display; not to mention an all around superb game. Great game, great win, we should be able to continue this win streak for a while.

:jam2:

That was a good win for the Lake show. We will be a good team this season I feel it.. Next up the Queens who rebounded nicely.. But I think we can beat them

Brandon's Analysis
The Bucks aren't looking like the 2003 team, with their only three wins coming against Charlotte, New Orleans and Cleveland...but they are still a threat to beat a weaker defensive team. On the other hand, the Lakers, after struggling early to the Chicago Bulls, look to play a more aggressive game against the Bucks Tuesday night.

Milwaukee needs to shoot for early leads with open shots and penetrations by Williams, who is having a stellar season so far for the Bucks. Michael Redd has been "on fire" this season, shooting 51% from the field and an astounding 47% from the arc, both career highs. The ball needs to be in his hands against the Lakers, who will more than likely leave him open while chasing down Williams and a quiet Van Horn, who can get easy jumpers with his off-the-ball play.

The Lakers have to play this game with less turnovers, which has been one of the biggest factors in their inability to keep 10-20 point leads late into the game. Also, pulling down offensive rebounds may become a high priority if Kobe is forced to shoot out of a slump again, and could easily change both the pace and the momentum in a close game, in favor of the Bucks.

Brandon's Prediction
The Bucks will come out firing, and are expected to take a quick lead going into the second quarter. Kobe's game will elevate after the half, and the Lakers will take the lead into the 4th. Late in the 4th, expect another shooting spree by the Bucks, mainly from Redd and Van Horn...in which the Lakers will survive with Kobe and Atkins answering every shot, and eventually win the game, 101-97.

YOUR PREDICTIONS ARE WAY OFF BASE ANYWAY

Uncanny is more like it.. :bow:

missed it by a point each..

Also realdeal, to call Tierre our factor off our bench was amazing, considering he has sucked all season (prior to the Bucks game). And you sure hit it dead on with D Mason for them too... :jam2:
