LA vs Phoenix

[Venti Quattro]

What stupid shit will Andrew Bynum pull that will get him ejected tonight?

[Fpoonsie]

How many Ts does he have so far this season? Is he close to an automatic suspension yet?

[Venti Quattro]

Lucky for Bynum, Kobe has more technical fouls (http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics/player/_/stat/fouls/sort/technicalFouls) than him.

[Fpoonsie]

Huh. I guess 'Drew just tends to get his in bunches.

[Frenzy]

He will intentionally tit slap a sun's player.

[ElNono]

So, who will be fortifying who in this game?

[Texas_Ranger]

today they get fucked up by Jordan Dragič's mentor. :rollin

[pass1st]

So, who will be fortifying who in this game?

Gortat ready to get his hairy hands into fortifying position

[DMC]

Bynum will beast tonight and probably not cause a ruckus. I predict the Lakers by 15.

[midnightpulp]

Lakers roll. 107-92.

[pass1st]

Suns pull it to triple overtime

[LkrFan]

How many Ts does he have so far this season? Is he close to an automatic suspension yet?

Worried about the Drew/Blair matchup eh? :lol

[Reck]

Weird that ESPN went with Denver and Warriors instead of Lakers and Suns.

I wonder what made them think those two teams would amount to anything this year.

[SpursIndonesia]

Lakers got this game, no doubt. They have some anger to channel onto, no zen bullshit tonite. :lol

[Latarian Milton]

suns always a tough matchup to them lakers i believe the lakers will win it but it ain't gonna be an easy one tbh

[Giuseppe]

They're O & 43!!!

[Splits]

Lakers are -1 against the spread, and have lost 9-10 AGS. So if you're a betting man, Lakers lose tonight.

[wanggi]

lakers used to a tough matchup to them suns i believe the suns will win it but it ain't gonna be an easy one tbh


Thank you Milt.

[wanggi]

On Suns' home court, Lakers lose.

Suns 113, Lakers105.

lame edition tbh

[Bynumite]

Kobe won't be playing, baby Drew about to handle business tbh.

[Venti Quattro]

Kobe's not playing, that might be a good thing. :lol

Maybe Mike Brown will now have a reason to play Goudelock. :lol

[ElNono]

why is mamba out?

[Killakobe81]

resting Kobe is smart but we gonna lose ...

[Venti Quattro]

why is mamba out?

Maybe it's because of his shin. Or he quit, in Phoenix nonetheless. Tee, hee.

[ElNono]

Maybe mike brown felt like making a sub

[midnightpulp]

Since Mamba is resting, I think Lakers just don't roll, they steamroll. LA by 20+

[DeadlyDynasty]

Suns always play their asses off against LA.

[Splits]

Ebanks-led Lakers offense looks smooth, much crisper w/o Kobe.

[ElNono]

Suns always play their asses off against LA.

not tonight...

[Venti Quattro]

Ebanks-led Lakers offense looks smooth, much crisper w/o Kobe.

Mike Brown's dumb ass cannot realize that there are guys in the bench who can play.

[DPG21920]

Kobe resting :lol

[midnightpulp]

not tonight...

Suns are trying, but the Lakers' offense is a well-oiled machine sans the Black Hole Mamba.

Ebanks is also a more capable defender than shin bruise at this point.

[Venti Quattro]

I see this is opportunity for midnighpulp to put Kobe down again, but I'm just going to play along. They need this win.

[midnightpulp]

I see this is opportunity for midnighpulp to put Kobe down again, but I'm just going to play along. They need this win.

I never miss one, homie.

[Venti Quattro]

Yeah, you're Kobe-obsessed to the bone.

[DPG21920]

If the Suns lose this game, I swear........

Is that what you're running with tonight? :lol

I hope Lakers do win and people say they are better off without Kobe ... dumbasses.

[midnightpulp]

If the Suns lose this game, I swear........

Suns will lose by 15+.

[DPG21920]

Seppe, any thoughts on Kobe choosing to take a night off?

[Venti Quattro]

I hope Lakers do win and people say they are better off without Kobe ... dumbasses.
Don't really give a fuck, what's more important is for LA to keep winning games.

[Brazil]

I hope Lakers do win and people say they are better off without Kobe ... dumbasses.

:lmao cannot wait tbh... I hope lakers beat the suns by 30 tonite

[Killakobe81]

Wow playing Ebanks helps .. who woulda thunk it? Freaking Mike Brown ...

[Killakobe81]

Don't really give a fuck, what's more important is for LA to keep winning games.

Agree that was my point ... doesnt change the fact people on her are dumb ... blind Kobe homers and haters are BOTH dumb.

[DPG21920]

LA is deep ^ been saying it all year. Dumb coach does not equal not talented.

[Splits]

Why has Ebanks had DNP for 9 straight and 19/20 games? Your bench is so short already, with Kobe averaging 38:30 a night with this his first game missed. Why has Ebanks not played AT ALL? Dude looks sharp and hasn't even been given an opportunity in 3 months.

[Venti Quattro]

Who needs Kobe at this point? Bynum is doing his best with 4-14. :lmao

[ElNono]

That frontline of Gortat and Frye really making Drew work :lol

[Venti Quattro]

I understand Gortat, but if Frye is making you work then you suck. :lol

[ElNono]

hurts my knees just watching Redd walk

[DPG21920]

Redd still wet tho

[Venti Quattro]

McRoberts is a really stupid player :lol

[midnightpulp]

Seppe, any thoughts on Kobe choosing to take a night off?

Beyond contemptible. Katie-girl cooked up the Helper for him, plated it, and brought it to him along with a tall glass of Hawaiian Punch. He rubbed his hands together like a fly, excited at the prospect of a good meal and some Los Angeles Lakers basketball featuring his idol, Kobe Bryant.

He turned on the set, switched to Fox Sports Southwest, the smile growing ever large as tip-off drew near.

The first words her heard was a local Suns commentator saying, "The Lakers will be without..." No, no, no. It can't be.

"Kobe Bryant."

Noooooooooooo.

But it would only get worse. What he saw next widened his eyes in fear, made his palms leak sweat, and sent a chill down his spine seemingly cold enough to freeze blood. It was sight about as terrible as g00k villager being fried alive by napalm. Oh the horror!

Culburn saw Kobe Bryant shinin' pine!

[ElNono]

I hope Lakers do win and people say they are better off without Kobe ... dumbasses.

this is stupid... of course Lakers need Kobe... just not taking 30 shots...

[DPG21920]

Wow, Michael Redd looks like the prime scorer that he once was. :lol

Kobe Bryant sat out the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night with an injured left shin, the first game he's missed this season.

Lakers longtime trainer Gary Vitti said just before tipoff he decided to put Bryant's left foot in a protective boot to rest the injury.

"It's very painful," Vitti said. "He's been playing with this and it's not getting any better. Really the only way to stop it is to shut him down. That's why I put him in a boot."

He could have played, was playing with the "injury" and if it were the playoffs they said he would play. That's resting.

[Giuseppe]

[DPG21920]

I saw Ebanks live at the Summer League when he was drafted and was impressed. He really does remind me of Ariza. Very similar game.

[ElNono]

Redd ridiculous

[Venti Quattro]

But he's been thrown to the back burner like Goudelock.

Fucking Michael Redd.

[DPG21920]

He's resting. He said he would play if it's the playoffs.

[midnightpulp]

He could have played, was playing with the "injury" and if it were the playoffs they said he would play. That's resting.

Yep. Resting.

Bryant received a massage and had kinesio tape applied to his shin before the Suns game but decided to sit out about 15 minutes prior to tip off.

Funny thing is, only Culburn would have a problem with Kobe resting. I'm sure Venti, Killa, and the majority of Lakers nation welcome a night off for a near 34 year old veteran who has been run into the ground this year.

[DPG21920]

Artest is going to murder someone. Mur.der.

[ElNono]

Metta been pretty mad lately

[DPG21920]

It's smart to rest Kobe, now he's on board with what Pop does.

[ElNono]

goddamned Redd...

I thought Bowen recognized his attacking skills.

Kobe Bryant on sitting out the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Phoenix Suns on Saturday: "I was wearing down a little bit and needed to rest. I'm fine though. If this were a playoff game, I'd be playing. The shin is sore, but not an issue. This is about getting my body right and not pushing too hard before the playoffs." This is the first game he's missed this season.

[midnightpulp]

I'm sure the homers will cite the Lakers ain't winning because of Kobe's absence, but Ebanks has given them Kobe like numbers throughout the 1st half. Stating the obvious, but the Show is losing this game on the defensive end.

Don't worry though. Lakers will still cruise.

I don't get why the underline words are helpful? I wish Seppe would just realistically answer a question. If he was playing with it and says he can play, just bc it's not getting better doesn't mean he isn't resting.

By that logic, Spurs don't rest. Those guys have reports that they are dinged up and it's not getting better unless they rest even though they played the night before.

:lol 2.5

[Venti Quattro]

No. He just quit.

:stirpot:
Sssssh. You might infuriate Dale, which will turn into more pain for Katie-Girl.

[DPG21920]

Banzai is cool, tbh... one of the few rational Lakers fans around here

He's cool for sure, but not rational. At all :lol

[ElNono]

I was looking at the boxscore and I saw that Kobe hasn't played. Is he injured?

"I was wearing down a little bit and needed to rest. I'm fine though. If this were a playoff game, I'd be playing. The shin is sore, but not an issue. This is about getting my body right and not pushing too hard before the playoffs."

[ElNono]

that defense is hilarious

[Killakobe81]

bad shooting night... he's normally in the 60% range... dude also has 15 boards

Doesnt change the fact he is not a great passer. I will say he has become "decent" at it ...but until he becomes very good at it yu cant make him the #1 option ...

[Venti Quattro]

Why am I still getting my hopes up for this game again?

[Spurs9]

Kobe Bryant sat out the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night with an injured left shin, the first game he's missed this season.

Lakers longtime trainer Gary Vitti said just before tipoff he decided to put Bryant's left foot in a protective boot to rest the injury.

"It's very painful," Vitti said. "He's been playing with this and it's not getting any better. Really the only way to stop it is to shut him down. That's why I put him in a boot."
Only pussies and assholes play the injury card.

Oh well. Kobe obviously sees the big picture. He can afford to take a day or two off. He's earned it.
