You'll see, this game for huge for our mentality. We'll be more focused and intense. I've seen this before. This team is slowly but surely getting tougher. We'll win 1 for sure. 3 or 4, doesn't matter.

I hope the LA Times and those other rags get off this LA isn't tough enough crap. Geez, give Houston a little credit. They are a good team and aren't going to roll over for LA.

He is never positive... Get used to it...

Came down to defense and after surrendering 57 points in the first half.

LA gives up only 41 to Houston. Do that, and LA wins the series.

Fisher really sent a message, and as a captain of this team...that was a strong statement. Basically telling all the bench players...Welcome to the Playoffs, so wake the F up.

kenny smith looks depressed.. he had already crowned houston the champs at halftime

whoever said we lack toughness re-watch that game.

Kobe is amazing.

Too bad we won't get to see his facial expressions in Houston b/c ESPN/ABC gets the games.



When he said champs, Charles had this silly smirk on his face like you are insane!

KAJ is twittering, haha.

Yeah I agree. I was so happy when Fisher committed that flagrant.

I wonder what the whole Wafer situation is all about. That was really weird. Pretty retarded by Wafer, since he's still a bench player. You never ever go against the coach.

He's a nice guy, but they all all bandwagoners. One game, it's this team, next game it's the other one. Meh. I am pumped right now. This was a great, gutsy win for us, and Kobe and Fish will have a word with other guys after this. I just know it.

awww don't be mean to fish. i think he played ok tonight. lit a fire under his teams butts too

There is no such thing as a frustrating win in the playoffs. Geez man. It is the NBA and isn't like Houston is dog meat. LA won. Enjoy it, life is so much better when you look at glass half full some of the time instead of half empty all the time. If sports made me that negative where I couldn't enjoy a win I would give it up and quit watching.

Fisher is the mvp of the game. He gave the Lakers some fire

I will have faith. Can't wait for us to win game 3 and 4 with our bench showing up.

Wafer played AAU ball for one of my best friends and he is an idiot. He's a hot head who is uncoachable.

Really proud of this team, all you guys [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] about Fish and Lamar and everyone else getting into it...really have no idea what that meant, this could be the game that propels us to win the title...

WTF??? What is negative about that?

The win was frustrating. Unless you thought LA played great or its best...
