[LamarOdom]

Kobe will together with MJ, Malone, Wilt and KAJ the only players with 30 000 points!

Ohh Kobe got drafted by the Hornets with the 13th pick and now he needs 13 points to hit 30 000 points against them.

:applause: in advance because win or lose ish will be swarmed with Praise and Hate threads.

[Graviton]

This is it, if they lose this one as well, it's over. Someone is getting fired or traded.

[Mr. Incredible]

Just wanted to give Kobe a shout out before he gets his 30k tonight. Amazing achievement. :applause:

[LoneyROY7]

Robin Lopez solo'ing Howard.

[LamarOdom]

First bucket!

[Noof]

Damn Lopez towers over Dwight

[TheBigVeto]

Easy win for the Lakers.

[anthonyRandolph]

Ryan Anderson most underrated singing, 7 rebounds 9 points in first

[Doranku]

Dwight Howard, multiple DPOY winner, getting BANGED up by ROBIN Lopez. :roll:

[clayton]

Hornets has the lead. :roll:

[Fudge]

How are you getting outrebounded by Ryan Anderson and Rob Lopez... :facepalm

[ImmortalD24]

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: at Kobe's atrocious defense.

[PyrrhusX]

17 rebounds to 9 .... man I thought OKC's rebounding was bad..

[ImmortalD24]

Kobe = DPOY! :bowdown: :bowdown:

[LamarOdom]

Is Rob Sacre the greatest cheerleader ever?

[anthonyRandolph]

How are you getting outrebounded by Ryan Anderson and Rob Lopez... :facepalm
Why are we acting like Anderson is a bad rebounder?

[midatlantic09]

When's Austin Rivers going to stop playing like hot garbage?

[ImmortalD24]

When's Austin Rivers going to stop playing like hot garbage?
Roger Mason is worse. Thank god he missed all of those wide open shots.

[Fudge]

Why are we acting like Anderson is a bad rebounder?
I'm not. But when you have the best rebounding C in the game in Dwight, and a former 20/10 player in Jamison in your front court, it shouldn't be hard to grab a board.

[LamarOdom]

I'm not. But when you have the best rebounding C in the game in Dwight, and a former 20/10 player in Jamison in your front court, it shouldn't be hard to grab a board.

Do not forget Jordan Hill.

[Legends66NBA7]

Its weird listening from both Bill McDonald and Joel Myers announcing this game.

Almost like it is a full blown Laker game.

[anthonyRandolph]

I'm not. But when you have the best rebounding C in the game in Dwight, and a former 20/10 player in Jamison in your front court, it shouldn't be hard to grab a board.
dunno, I think current Jamison is a terrible rebounder. Now Lopez that's just unacceptable.

[DuMa]

Pelicans stomping dat ass :pimp:

[Dictator]

Kobe needs to chill with his superman bs.

[Mr. Jabbar]

artest u dumb ****

[ThunderStruk022]

Kobe clearly walked there, but whatever.

[DuMa]

Dwight you salty bro?

The only reason why I know the players with the Hornets is because of mycareer/myplayer mode in nba 2k13. Austin Rivers is much better in the game, lol.

[longtime lurker]

I tune into the game and see the Lakers down to the Hornets. This is my shocked faced :eek:

No need to be upset if they do. The Hornets are legit.

:(

[The-Legend-24]

If this game comes down to the wire, might as well chalk it up as a loss for the Lakers. :oldlol: :rolleyes:

[Micku]

Congratz Kobe. Probaby the second or third best scorer ever and one of the greatest players of all time.

[pejavelin]

LA better win this game. We are still close and I wouldnt rule out a 4th qtr meltdown again.

[KG215]

When is Anthony Davis going to be back from injury?

The Hornets are all kinds of awful right now. You know you're hurting when your "best player on the team" discussion is between Ryan Anderson and Greivis Vasquez.

[LamarOdom]

Vasques has been great this season and when Davis and Gordon is healthy they will be 3/4 option, this team have a bright future.

[KG215]

These Hornets announcers keep talking about the Lakers letting the Rockets come from behind last night to win. Someone should remind him that while the Rockets are "meh", the Hornets are worse than them.

Lakers aren't letting this scrub team come from behind to beat them.

[LamarOdom]

omg Meeks you suck so bad.

We juz could not hit any shot, we definitely are not a "meh" team.

[KG215]

Vasques has been great this season and when Davis and Gordon is healthy they will be 3/4 option, this team have a bright future.
I agree, but that's not the Hornets team the Lakers are playing tonight.

The Hornets best player, right now, is either Greivis Vasquez or Ryan Anderson. That's painfully bad. Both are nice players, but when they're the two best players you can put on the court....yikes.

[pnyozzzoo]

HERE we go.... hack hack

[Godzuki]

ryan anderson taking over :bowdown:

godamnit i hate when coaches pull hot players :facepalm

[The_Yearning]

They should start hack of Howard as soon as the 4th quarter starts and hope RA and get hot from 3.

SmH

Never should have signed Eric Gordon. He even said he did not want to play for your shitty organization.

[noob cake]

This. Hack non stop and jack up 3 pointers.

[NumberSix]

I'm getting nervous that it's only a 13 point lead. Just please don't blow this. The Lakers can't lose this one.

[rhythmic]

Kobe & Dwight are playing like superstars, and Jamison has been been great the last 6-7 games. Anyone noticed Dwight's elevation is higher tonight? He looks way more aggressive on the glass and defensively. Impressed with him tonight.

And of course congrats to Kobe on 30,000. That is such a huge milestone. :applause:

Please finish the game strong LA.

[NumberSix]

Lol. Pelicans suck balls.

[Sharmer]

Kobe less than 20 shots, they win.

[RazorBaLade]

Kobe less than 20 shots, they win.

and if the bench instead has come out and lost this lead and it was a tie game kobe would come back in and shoot his shots and if they hapepend to lose itd be kobes fault. but since the bench just made like 5 threes in a row somehow it means kobe didnt hog tonight

[Jameerthefear]

Man Ryno has been tearing it up. Orlando misses you!

[Noof]

Lol Lopez tackling Morris

[Sharmer]

It's not a blame game, responsibility should not be just one player, I would be mad at the coach if anyone.

Basically Basketball is a team game, MJ use to get his team mates involved in the 1st Q and take over later in the game.

Lakers play best , at least this year, when their offense is shared.

[longtime lurker]

Keeping hating bro

[The-Legend-24]

Monty Williams not doing the Hack-a-dwight? :eek:

[ImmortalD24]

Surprise.. Kobe scoring under 30 = automatic win


They should just take him out every time he's about to approach that mark.





:coleman:

[RazorBaLade]

unrelated, idk where to post this but it makes me lol

John Hollinger ‏@johnhollinger
Such a vintage JaVale play. Jumps up to goaltend shot, wises up in midair and lets it go, but now can't get rebound --> ATL put-back.


fkng glorious

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

:lol

[Dictator]

austin rivers doo doo.

[Mr. Jabbar]

They'd just reach for the next meaningless stat, their worthless existence needs to go on

[Sharmer]

Jamison and MWP playing a lot better under D'Antoni.

[poido123]

I hope Kobe gets 30 so we can put an end to this retarded Lakers suck when Kobe scores 30 or more bullshit.

Nope, fact still stands :lol:

Whether it was the coache's decision or Kobe's, butthere's no way the starters needed to go back in with nearly a 20 point lead half way through the fourth quarter. Should of been rested for the next game.

[Doranku]

The Lakers just blew a 13 point lead in the 4th with <10 minutes left. Doesn't hurt to play it safe, especially with that game fresh on the mind.

I'm am trolling a little, makes Longtime Lurker mad :lol: I like the Laker team, just not Kobe fanatics.

[Sharmer]

Kobe taking a lot of shots doesn't cause the Lakers to lose, this doesn't make sense.

There are hundreds of factors which cause a team to lose one particular game, you can't single out one statistic, and argue Kobe taking a lot of shots causes the Lakers to lose.

[Sharmer]

Other factors causing a team to lose, turnovers, steals, poor rebounding, coaching errors, foul trouble, etc you could list hundreds, to say , its all Kobe faults, when he shoots a lot , just shows some people have limited education.

[rhythmic]

Nice team effort, I am really impressed with Jordan Hill. I absolutely love this guy. MD needs to give him more minutes, this is disturbing. This guy is a MONSTER defensively, has anyone else besides me notice his impact? Guy is a terrific shot blocker and rebounder, has an incredible wing span and quickness; he is great at man to man defense and even better at weak side help. He's also very active on the glass, and can hit the mid-range jumper.

Why the **** is Earl Clark getting as many minutes as this guy? Clark looked useless out there, like this is pissing me off. Everytime Hill is on the floor I feel like Howard is out there to be honest. I know he might not be as good but he's been pretty ****ing good this season. I personally think he has been our best defensive player.

Once again, big congrats to Kobe on an incredible achievement. I remember him back in 97', air balling against the Jazz...he came a long way and it's been a pleasure to watch him play since I was 6 years of age. My hero alongside Magic, what they did for my favorite franchise over the years has been a gift. It's very sad that so many people love to hate this guy. He has been a blessing for all basketball fans and will be truly missed once he retires.

Very impressed with Howard tonight as well. Little to complain about. He was a FORCE defensively and on the glass. His elevation looked great tonight and he was aggressive on both ends. Nice outlook passes to boot. GREAT team effort. I don't expect us to beat OKC on the road, and 9-11 start is really really bad. But you know me, I got hope and love for my team. I'll be here if they're 20-50...

By the way, Anderson was money tonight. Damn his release is quick. Seems like everytime he made a three, it didn't even touch the rim.

I hope Gordon can overcome all the injuries; they have a bright future if he can stay healthy. Really hope he doesn't become Roy version 2.

Good luck rest of the way Pelicans.

Cool story.

Would read again.

Kobe has avoided blame his entire career, he doesn't need a keyboard warrior like you to defend him.

[1987_Lakers]

D'Antoni better have Hill playing some minutes when Gasol comes back.

[Sharmer]

Cool story.

Would read again.

Not really a keyboard warrior or Kobe fan, just stating the fact, that Basketball win or lose, doesn't come down to one factor, in this case, blaming Kobe's high shot output on the teams failure.

[midatlantic09]

Another outstanding performance by Austin Rivers!

[Mr. Jabbar]

Last 2 games, yes, even the rockets loss, this team has looked WAY better all around. The key being Pau gasoft and his depressive aura being out. Team looks way fresher out there. Jamison and Hill must see stellar minutes, specially Hill. No more Dwight+Pau Combo kpls? thx.
