82 games or not this team is definitely making the playoffs with or without Kobe. I don't know how important home court is to the Lakers but Kobe should take his time and be as close to 100% as he possibly can when the playoffs role around.

6-1 on the stretch now I think? Time to put our foot down, winning the last 3 would be insane. Celtics lost tonight so that puts us only 4 games back of them. Happy days

Thank God we were able to hold on, I might have lost my mind if we blew this game. Heading into the all-star break with our best record in history at this point (I think?).

HOW DO YOU BLOW A [expletive]ING 23 POINT LEAD AT HOME?!?

Definitely would rather have a deadeye shooter playing 15 minutes than an athletic swing man who is good for flashy dunks and streaky play otherwise.

LOL at Reggie, seemed like he was trying too hard and anxious to score, but great to see the hustle nonetheless. Haven't been watching closely, nice to see us up handily so far, hopefully we can keep our foot on the gas and head into all-star weekend with another W at home.

I am cracking up at 3 awesome lob passes from Jose in 2 minutes. Jose is playing amazing right now, unreal bench guy. 6th man of the year

Wow Demar just got owned hard lol.

Can't wait to hear the ovation for Reggie lol.... Sixers look a lot better with Thad out of the starting 5, I really think that kid is overrated.

BEAST.

Iunno, I like Dallas' roster as it stands. They need more production out of Howard but outside of that they have a lot of damn talent.

Reggie is said to be making his return/debut today! We better win, gain some ground on the top teams and continue to separate ourselves from the teams below us.

Don't understand why this deal is not done yet. Amare is a decent 2nd option offensively, he needs a legit big next to him since he isn't a C. But this is a great start in helping keep Wade, Amare is a star. Beasley is as good a young player you could ever ask for someone like Amare.

Love this for Celtics, I do not like Davis at all.

1. Kobe 2. Wade 3. Joe Johnson 4. Roy 5. Monta Ellis I guess

How is McGrady going to dominate the offense in Philly? Lol... they can't find enough shots for their players already.

Donte for his upside and I think he has a unique skillset. But someone needs to ream this kid the [expletive] out, he is trigger happy and doesn't play defense. I think he can be a good player but he launches lot's of jumpers and doesn't take advantage of the size mismatches he causes when he has a smaller guy on him.

This is exactly why Kobe needs to be more of a facilitator. He doesn't NEED to score, this team has as much offense as you could ask for. Kobe only really needs to be aggressive offensively in the last 5 minutes in a close game. If his shot is falling or he is feeling it, aight take how ever many shots you want, but when it's not just stop shooting brah. Also Bynum to the bench is interesting, he would dominate bench bigs in the league on offense, and would probably enjoy being the primary offensive option in the post. He's a kid though and would probably pout if he had to come off the bench. The Lakers surely are not better without Kobe, but they are still a very dangerous team.

Why are you speaking on the off-season already?!? Getting Johnson in FA is probably your best bet if you don't land Bosh, which I personally don't think he will want play under Wade's shadow but that is just me. I really like JJ and him and Wade could probably play the 1 and 2 since both can handle, wouldn't need a PG really. Why would you want Gilbert Arenas? I would never want that no-defense chucker on my team. If you could bring JJ and Boozer in that would be pretty good, both are right under max value deals so could you afford that?

They take too many jumpers.

Only players I see switching teams is T-Mac, Amare, and Caron. I am convinced the Rockets and Bull will eventually strike a deal that will allow the Bulls to keep Kirk. If not Laker fans might finally get their wish. Caron seems as good as gone, Jamison will go if the Wizards can set aside their differences with the Cavaliers but that is totally up in the air it seems. I see the Cavaliers having to settle on someone like Murphy at the deadline, I would be surprised if Amare was moved, even with all the rumours.

Why on earth would the Suns trade Amare for KG? Lol... Anyways I was convinced this was still the best team in the East when they are healthy, but with their recent play (like 10-12 since Christmas?) I am not so sure. I don't think any trade at this point can make this team any better than they currently are. If they make a move I think it should wait until the off-season.

I don't watch the Heat but why does Beasley play the 4 all the time? I was under the impression he was more of a 3. I think his size and rebounding ability at the 3 would outweigh his defensive liabilities there. Why not run Wade-QRich-Beasley-Haslem-JO? Considering the Heat aren't a particularly great rebounding team, starting Haslem, the team's best rebounder, would be ideal in theory, would it not?

Why would you wear a watch when cell phones tell time?
