5 in a row... Win #14 .500

[MetroMan]

I'm surprised Kobe is still shooting .470 from the field after the GS game

Yea I want metta to hound melo. Just beat him up on the block and get in his face on the arc. We gotta share the ball so melo and chandler can't play safety in the paint...cuz metta can shoot.

Will Pau be forced to defend melo or brewer???

Scary.

Scary.

You need to remember there is a flip side to that. HOw does Melo or Brewer guard Gasol in the post?.........oh yeah we wouldnt use that mismatch correctly we will put Gasol arounf the 3 pt line lol

Ill tell you what though, Nash looked pretty damn good last night. He was a huge difference maker. That was our first game with our starters in this system lmao Thats impressive people. If you sit back and think about it. HOward still recovering from back surgury, Nash recovering from broken leg, tell last night havent had Nash play or the starters play 1 single game in this 'Nash" system, still dont have a rotation yet, ect ect Its unfortunte we had all this bad luck but you can really start to see and understand why the record is what it is. Team defense is something you get as a unit over time together. With Nash back and seeing the flashes of what he brings and does for us i feel like any night against any team we have a chance to win. At the end of the year i suspect this team will be the most feared team come playoff time no matter what seed they are.

We do need some answers on why Jamison is not playing a single minute? Is he left out of rotation? I noticed Hill got all the back-up PF minutes left over. Why doesnt Jamison back-up the 3 then?

With everyone back our goals are

1. Chemistry "offensively AND defensivly"
2. Set a Rotation
3. Continue to get Healthy 'no setbacks"

Fight for another W !!!! I believe!

[duane v]

Another tough game, but we're at home...... We played pretty damn ****** last night and pulled one out on someone else's court, so I feel encouraged

He will not be starting this game most likely. If he does Gasol will guard Brewer. I assume D'Antonni will go:

Nash
Meeks
Kobe
Artest
Howard

[GREATNESS ONE]

Ganar!!!!

[lakeshow2012]

i think theyll have morris start again at SG and have nash guard kidd (old vs old) and morris on felton

I think so too. D'Antoni wants some athleticism on the defensive end to bother the quick guards.

Last year was a heartbreak
