Five Lakers in double figures without Kobe making much of an impact. :thumbup:

A lot of standing arounds and we can't secure our boards.... same old story.

Well, maybe the Suns will start playing again now that they've thrown their lead away. It has happened before.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Kobe ist just the fifth leading scorer on his team and I fully expect him to shoot the lights out in the fourth quarter.

Not a single three pointer by the Suns since the first quarter.

Come on, we need this win! GO SUNS!!!

Is Marc Jackson related to Greg Anthony? "Kobe is setting the Suns up for a big second half?" Holy Crap.

Well put. I hate how some analysts let on that Kobe can do no wrong simply because he's Kobe & plays in LA. Yeah, he planned on having only a few field goals in the first w/ his team down double digits :rolleyes:

Suns look sluggish, they better find their offensive rhythm, & QUICK!

Love the enthusiasm, let's hope for the best..

Coach D'Antoni needs to work on Half court spacing... It is so bad. We can still easily win this.

The substitution patterns have been interesting. Marion has been working hard on odom.

I have a work commitment in about 25 minutes so I won't be able to watch the end of this. I predict it will be ugly, for one team or another -- maybe both.

There are just too many standing arounds. We are not getting open shots and when our players don't get open shots, they panic. Only Diaw can play out of the rhythm right now.

This is not going to be popular but how many layups and tip ins is Diaw going to miss today?

Man, our inside is so darn weak.... this weakness is going to really drag us. I WANT Kobe to go one-on-one and Laker changed their gameplan like all the other teams.

Boris Diaw is amazing. The spin he puts on the ball when going for the layup to make sure that the ball doesn't go in is truly impressive.

I'd like to see him miss more dunks. I mean, we all know that he can get to the basket and miss layup after layup, but he rarely goes up for the missed dunk. I just think that if he could add it to his game, he'd be a much more effective misser, that's all.

We really don't need 2 guys that want to pass first. Nash and Diaw is not a very good combination unless Diaw focuses on scoring when Nash plays. That's one thing Amare does the best. He doesn't look to pass. He wants to score and put people on foul trouble.
