6:30 PM FSN!
Lakers should not underestimate below .500 teams. They should give their best on all their games.
Go Lakers! |

The Lakers need a new commitment to mental focus. The rest will take care of it's self. |

I predict a Lakers win but once again they will give up 95-105 points.

I always want the Lakers to win but just because we are playing the Timberwolves doesn't guarantee us a win. It wouldn't surprise me if they lose tonite because usually when they play a team below .500 they play their worse.
I would like to see the Lakers win by at least 20 points tonite. Hopefully they aren't looking ahead to Christmas day showdown with the Celtics. We need to win the next 6 games but being realistic I would say they will win 4 of the 6 games. Boston is a very important game but all of the games leading up to Christmas is just as important as well.

Since that probably won't happen, wave to the camera and give a shout out to LG.

I'll try. Anyone else here going to the game?? They better not disappoint me with a loss. In the past when I would go to games they would always win so I hope I bring them good luck. I hope there aren't any Minnesota fans sitting next to me, you know you always see at least 1 at a game |

Lakers better win this one... I made a bet with my friend last year that the lakers would win more games this year than the Twolves would win in the next 2 years.
Hey does anyone know a way to watch the local games online - I go to college in SB but it's winter break now so i'm back up in norcal, which means no KCAL or FSN for a month. Is there a website that streams the games? |

I thought this team grew out of their "playing down to the level of the competition" phase last year... no??
Unfortunately (depending upon on our defensive energy/focus), this game now ends up being a dangerous one.

The Wolves played the Spurs pretty tough Friday night. Still, I think we eventually bust this one open, Kobe sits the 4th quarter, Lakers win comfortably.

| Rest for Bryant and Pau. That´s all I need from this game. 30 minutes each one on the court. 18 minutes of smiles and poses on the bench |

| Its nice to play a team with a center that plays near the basket, that will help our defense to have bynum play close to the basket |
