The Official L.A. Lakers Thread

Did the Knicks win I hope so that's my team. They are very hard to watch at times but I can't help being a fan. Hopefully they will get a great team next year with Lebron or somebody.

Wellllllllllll, looks like this 8 game road trip is about to come to an end tonight in Memphis. Yesterdays game against the Celtics was a great victory for this squad and it'll help their confidence against the more elite teams of the NBA. Kobe did it again with a late FG making all those bean-town fans choke on their own "Beat L.A." chants

So far, we're 5-2 on this 8 game road trip. Hopefully we can make it 6-2 tonight and the cherry on top will be Kobe surpassing The Logo's all-time Lakers Franchise scoring record


GO LAKERS!

Lakers ended up 5-3 on this 8 game road trip. What can I say? I really thought this squad would try to turn it up a notch and go at least 6-2 maybe even 7-1 on this trip but the two very close games which turned out to be L's on the standings really hurt us, the Toronto game and the Memphis game were very winnable especially with both games being decided by just one point. At least Kobe got his consultation prize and is now the Lakers Scoring Record holder by passing up Mr. Jerry West himself. Ironicly Kobe scored 44 points that night in Memphis to do so. (West wore #44 his whole career and also worked for Memphis, the only other franchise to do so not called the L.A. Lakers)


Looking forward to a little home stand! Lets kick it into high gear Lakers!

Well, Looks like Kobe is kind of back to his old self playing in Memphis his 1st game back from injury but the game against Dallas he didn't look like himself at all. You an tell he was tired and just didn't have to stamina he usually has to finish off games. His FG % was horrid and hopefully he finds his legs again and SOON!!!
