Probably gonna watch the Lakers vs Rockets game tonight too,haven't seen LA play so far this season.

My team got blown away last night in the 4th quarter by Lebron(again),but without Gooden,Hinrich and Hughes i guess thats ok.Pretty decent season start so far but our november schedule is pretty awful.

Without mentioning his name,there is another pretty big laker fan here on the forum.

And I actually think that the lakers are the big favourite to win the championship this year,hornets are up there too but i think they lack a little experience.

Detroit made a big deal this week,don't know how that is gonna turn out but it will be interesting to watch a couple of their games,never been a big pistons fan tho.

Imo Cleveland will go pretty deep in the playoffs too.


I would be that Laker fan. Very Happy

Tonight was a good test for the Lakers and really was their first of the season. You could tell they were a little rusty coming out after only playing one game in the past 7 days. The next week should be interesting as they play the at Dallas, at New Orleans and against Detroit for their next 3 games.

IMO, Ariza was the MVP of the game. He really changed the momentum of the game with his defensive presence and intensity in the 2nd quarter. Gasol started out really slow, but overall had a very nice game, Kobe did his thing, Bynum kept pace with Yao, Farmar did great coming off the bench, etc. The Lakers dominated the 2nd half.

Through 5 games the Lakers have looked dominant in just about every one of them and they lead the league in offense and defense so far. I'm very excited to see how the season plays out.

Didn't get around to watching the game but from what i could tell from the boxscore except for the first quarter it must have been quite an exhibition,it probably helped that Mcgrady apparently only made 3 points.
Will try to make an effort to watch them play New Orleans this week.

Couple of surprising results yesterday too with the Knicks beating Utah and the Clippers getting their first victory against Dallas.

It's gonna be a good season i think.

Oh my god! Laker vs Hornets game was nice! I almost thought they might lose towards the end when the Lakers started slacking and letting the hornets score. The 3 pointer Kobe scored near the end was amazing!

7 - 0!!

Yes, the Hawks are doing very well too. Sad to see them lose to the Celtics that night. They should have won.

Still haven't seen the Lakers play this season but since they are still unbeaten it must be impressive.

They play the Bulls next week so i'll see them at work then although i'm probably not gonna enjoy that game Smile,Bulls had a nice victory over Dallas yesterday tho and without all the injuries they probably could have been 6-3 instead of 4-5.
