Looks like Kobe thinks Randle and Clarkson can contribute immediately. I tend to agree.

They made some little mistake here and there on the defensive end, but they got a good team game going on offense, really liked what Ed Davis brings to the table on both ends.

That Jeremy Lin to Ed Davis combination was very effective all game long. We shall see how this team does against the W's tomorrow night at Staples!

Been sayin it since the summer, Randle(and Davis) needs to start

I don't mind that the Vets start for now, but as the season goes on B. Scott will make adjustments with his starting rotations. Maybe we will see these two start later on down the road.

I must admit I do love seeing Boozers toughness, something that Gasol had been lacking for years. I believe it will rub off on our power forwards especially.

I totally agree with LALakersboy and Kold. Great and true comments gents. Davis should start with Hill at PF and then bring Boozer off the bench with Kelly rotating in. Or Boozer could start with Hill and Kelly rotating in. But you gents are spot on. Scott will make the correct adjustments because to a man, they have bought into Scott's program and that can be a dangerous combo with all of that Lakers history encouraging them to win!!

Game time, I want us to keep up the defense.

Yep.

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

We look a little shaky.

Who's the angry looking woman sitting next to the logo?

Opponent starting out 4/5 from the 3 point line will do that.

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

Nice move by Lin.

Swaggy!

This is a good test to demonstrate the level of D we are willing to play. The W's are definitely excellent shooters and we are not quite on that level yet and the score is indicative. That woman LALakersboy is the logo's wife.

Down by 9.

Liked that defensive sequence by Kobe. Back to back steals.

She looked pissed. I wonder what he did?

Drug her to a basketball game she didn't want to go to, I'll bet.
