Lakers-Jazz Open Thread

Los Angeles Lakers at Utah Jazz, Dec 12, 2009 6:00 PM PST


Lots of red flags waiving around Lakerdom tonight. Road game. Kobe's finger. Stage two of a back-to-back. Overnight travel to a cold, grim climate. Kobe's finger. Utah craving revenge for the Quarter That Will Live in Infamy.

Kobe's finger.

Good news, though: the Jazz will once again wear their Green Bay Packer tribute uniforms tonight. The Lakers will wear their home golds. On Wednesday, at least, this color combination treated us well.

These shall be your drinking-game triggers for the evening.

  • Avulsion fracture.
  • "Payback."
  • Any technical or flagrant foul, of which I expect there to be at least three.
  • Anything about the Lakers finally being "tested on the road."
  • Any full sentence from Hot Rod Hundley all of whose words you actually understand and can transcribe accurately.

The Lakers are favored by 2 tonight. The floor is now yours.

Update from Mike Trudell
Kobe Bryant came late to the game due to a form of stomach illness, and is currently taking IVs. Of course, he’s planning on playing.

Yeesh.

Hey guys. Lakes need to give it to Kobe and the bigs in the post

Shaquille O'Neal: "Tell him Shaq doesn’t respond to juvenile delinquents without a college degree. Tell him to get his degree, and we can talk. In the meantime, he should call me Dr. Shaq because I’m working on my PhD." (Referring to 17-year-old rookie Andrew Bynum, who compared himself to Shaq…except that he can make free throws.)

I'm so proud to be a Lakers fan

they are fighting back. IN the past they would not have done that. Ammo would have gone into the game by now. Great way to suck it up. Especially Kobe.

58 games more to go! so far 18-4

i’m not a celtics fan but i think the best record should to go them they played more on the road..

by wyl@work on Dec 12, 2009 8:24 PM PST up reply actions  

Each team plays exactly the same amount of road games. Unless you mean that the edge should go to the Celtics, currently, because they’ve played more on the road? I’d be inclined to agree, but I don’t want to give the Celtics anything. So to me the Lakers and Celtics are tied.

Doesn't look good for the near future

If Kobe can’t get back to 80%.

Didn’t the pundits say this team could win 50 games without Kobe? Riiiiight.

Did you see how they played tonight without Kobe? They looked out of sync and really bad. All the Laker’s mistakes are magnified when Kobe doesn’t play well.

by intuitive on Dec 12, 2009 8:26 PM PST up reply actions  

We didn’t play well in Denver and we had Kobe.

by Julio Nievas on Dec 12, 2009 8:27 PM PST up reply actions  

So? That has nothing to do with the Lakers not being a 50 win team without Kobe.

by intuitive on Dec 12, 2009 8:29 PM PST up reply actions  

I’m saying you’re not acknowledging the fact that we have 4 all-star caliber players.

by Julio Nievas on Dec 12, 2009 8:31 PM PST up reply actions  

Drew would not fare well without Kobe. He’d constantly get double teamed and he’s horrible at passing out of the post. Pau is the only one that would be successful without Kobe.

You already know the Lakers can’t depend on Odom for points. The Lakers wouldn’t win 50 or more games without Kobe. They might win about 40 or so games, but 50 seems like a reach.

they are just so used to kobe bailing them out. when he doesn’t they don’t put the extra effort and we lose.

I hate how when Bynum doesnt get enough touches

early on he simply just doesnt play for the rest of the game, he’s too !@#$%^& long to not get @ least 10 boards a game!

he just doesn’t put the effort. he doesn’t look soft on offense

by Madz on Dec 12, 2009 8:26 PM PST up reply actions  

well soft regarding rebounding

would be him losing the ball whenever he tries to grab rebounds. Bynum just looks at the ball going by as if he was mesmerized.

by Madz on Dec 12, 2009 8:32 PM PST up reply actions  

He’s not a natural rebounder. He still has a lot to improve on on rebounding.

by intuitive on Dec 12, 2009 8:27 PM PST up reply actions  

agreed

and when he doesnt get a call
he goes to complain to the refs rather than getting back on defense
leading to the other team having numbers down the floor

who is that old man with white hair who sits behind the lakers bench every game? kind of looks like jacques derrida. or maybe a little like tex winter. im guessing he’s a retired cop, or someone with that background working as private security for the lakers.

Kobe makes a huge difference. If Kobe plays like his usual self the Lakers either win, or at least stand a better chance then they showed tonight.

The thing is the Kobe wasn’t his usual self and the game wasn’t as close as the final score seems to indicate so the Lakers lost. What could have been wasn’t, so it really doesn’t matter. At the end of the day the Lakers get a L and the Jazz get a W.

So how do the Lakers rebound from this? And what about Kobe?

I think the staff should definitely look into sitting him, till he is himself and can fully use his right hand

Well that does it for me tonight, see ya'll next thread

Not a good day for us fans but here’s some food for thought, we have Chi, Mil, NJN and DET coming up, why don’t they sit Kobe these games and have him back in time for the OKC game? Kobe needs that hand to heal, in my opinion, playing leftie ain’t working for me, Lakers need a full aggressive Kobe for not only the season but Playoffs(when it really counts).
