Im not liking what iv'e been seeing so far.

Artest seems to be finally getting involved these past couple games though. Big shot tonight vs Rockets in the 4th

Let The Season Roll Man It's Only The Beginning Of The Season They're Just Not Putting Effort Into It But It Doesn't Mean That They Won't Be In The Playoffs.

I think we need Gasol back ASAP. I been telling you that the Lakers look rusty as hell to begin this season. Ariza was a novelty, we didn't need him. Artest will come in handy during the playoffs, keep a load off Kobe on the defensive side of things.

The way we been playing sub par teams as of late I won't be surprised to see if they give us a run for our money yet again. Look at what happened with the Thunder, Mavericks, Rockets. All teams we should have beat fairly easily.

damn...from a great game against the suns to this tonight...wow

Lakers....we need Pau back. He strengthens the post.

Lakers played like garbage tonight.

Check The Standings Atlanta Has The Best Record

I was a bit concerned after watching two very bad Laker games, but it is still very early in the season and after winning the championship alot of teams tend to drop wins the next season it happened during the Lakers 3 peat years. Won 67 games the first championship season and then dropped about 18 or so games the next but still won the ring. I don't think Atlanta will be up there to long in a few weeks.

Lakers vs. Bulls: Pau Gasol has big night in his return
November 19, 2009 | 7:23 pm


The Lakers are starting to become whole again, the return of Pau Gasol going a long way to help them.

Gasol had missed a little more than five weeks with a strained right hamstring, but he looked strong in helping the Lakers defeat the Chicago Bulls, 108-93, on Thursday night at Staples Center.

Gasol played 34 minutes and produced a double-double with 24 points on nine-for-15 shooting and 13 rebounds.

He was one of six Lakers that scored in double figures.

Kobe Bryant almost had a triple-double with 21 points, nine rebounds and eight assists.

Every Laker played in a game during which the Lakers opened a 24-point lead before they coasted for the victory.

Lakers Coach Phil Jackson said after practice Wednesday that he would play Gasol about 25 minutes.

But that clearly wasn't the case. Gasol looked winded a few times, but he made it through the game without a problem.
Lakers 25, Bulls 19 (first quarter)

Rust?

What Rust?

Even though it was his first game in more than five weeks, Pau Gasol played as if he hadn't missed the first 11 regular-season games.

Gasol, who had been out with a strained right hamstring, had 10 points and four rebounds in helping the Lakers open a 25-19 first-quarter lead over the Chicago Bulls tonight at Staples Center.


Gasol was four-for-five shooting from the field in nine minutes of action.

Gasol scored on two tip-ins, a jumper, on two free throws and by running the court on the fast break, taking a pass from Ron Artest for a layup.

Lakers 53, Bulls 42 (halftime)

The Lakers settled into a nice little groove, building a 12-point lead in the second quarter before taking a 53-42 halftime lead over the Chicago Bulls.

Kobe Bryant had 13 points, but he was just four-for-14 shooting from the field in the first half.

Pau Gasol finished the first half with 14 points.

Chicago second-year guard Derrick Rose continued to struggle with his shot. He was just two for 11 from the field in the first half, including missing a layup just before time expired to end the first half.

Lakers 84, Bulls 67 (third quarter)
The Lakers went to work during a third quarter in which Kobe Bryant made more history.

The Lakers ran off to a 20-point lead before holding an 84-67 lead over the Bulls at the end of the third.

All five Lakers' starters had scored in double figures by the end of the third quarter.

Pau Gasol led the way with 20 points and 10 rebounds.


With 6:07 left in the third, Bryant made one of two free throws for his 16th point of the game. It meant that Bryant had become the second-leading scorer in Lakers' franshise history with 24,177 points, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (24,176).

Jerry West in the team's all-time leader in points scored with 25,192 points.

El Espanol Ya Regresado!!

lol @ all Laker hater and Pau haters, were back baby, were back... Can I hear threepeat anyone?????

we winnin the ship baby. we look good.

Lakers beat Thunder for 11th straight time

LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant scored 26 points, including an astonishing basket from behind the backboard, and the Los Angeles Lakers cruised to a 101-85 rout of the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday night.

The defending NBA champions, who squeaked out a 101-98 overtime win at Oklahoma City on Nov. 3, had this one in control throughout with help from Andrew Bynum's 25 points and nine rebounds. Bryant also had seven assists and six rebounds.

Pau Gasol, playing his second game since coming back from a right hamstring strain, had 15 points, seven rebounds and six assists after getting 24 points and 13 boards in Thursday's 108-93 win against Chicago. The Lakers have won 11 straight against the Thunder-Seattle SuperSonics franchise, and are 9-0 this season when scoring 100 or more points.

Bryant thrilled the sellout crowd late in the first quarter when he made one of those Larry Bird-type fadeaway jumpers from behind the baseline near the Lakers' bench while hanging in the air as his momentum carried him out of bounds on a drive against rookie guard James Harden.

Kevin Durant led Oklahoma City with 19 points, after getting 30 or more in five of his previous seven games. The Thunder have given up 100 or more points in each of their last three contests, after allowing fewer than 90 in six of their first 11 contests.

Durant, who came in as the league's fifth-leading scorer with a 27.7-points average and had 28 in the first meeting with the Lakers, missed his first five shots in the rematch while Bynum made his first five to help Los Angeles pull out to a 27-8 lead. Bryant, who scored nine points in the final 2:01 of the quarter, turned a one-bounce offensive rebound into a buzzer-beating bank shot from the foul line to give the Lakers a 35-16 cushion.

Bynum, who didn't practice the previous two days after rolling his right ankle defending against Chicago's Brad Miller, went to the bench for good in the final minute of the third quarter with the Lakers ahead 77-56.

Durant, who made a league-best 452 free throws last season, had only one against the Lakers. It came at the end of a three-point play that trimmed the Lakers' lead to 61-42 with 8:42 left in the third, and was his only attempt from the line.

NOTES: The Lakers are off to a 10-3 start, compared to 12-1 last year. The worst 13-game start the franchise ever had in any of its 15 NBA championship seasons was 8-5 in 1984-85. ... The Lakers' next game is Tuesday night when they host the Knicks, the first meeting between the teams since Bryant set a Madison Square Garden record with 61 points on Feb. 2. New York is 3-17 overall at Staples Center, with all of the victories coming against the Lakers. The Knicks are 0-10 there against the Clippers. ... Bryant, who entered his 14th NBA season averaging 34.1 percent from 3-point range, is an uncharacteristic 5 for 28 from behind the arc through his first 13 games. By contrast, teammate Josh Powell is 30 for 65. ... Durant was the first overall pick in the 2007 draft, James Westbrook the fourth selection in 2008 and Harden the third player tabbed in 2009. Durant and Westbrook are Oklahoma City's top two scorers. ... Harden was coming off back-to-back games of 24 and 25 points, his first two double-digit performances in the NBA, and was 10-for-13 shots from 3-point range during that two-game stretch. But he was 12 for 14 overall against the Lakers and finished with six points.
Another Firme Win Lets Keep It Up.
