The Lakers won a big game in Houston, but lost Lamar Odom to injury. This was an impressive win without Lamar for most of the game. Houston trailed big, but came back. Kobe had to get rid off the ice bag on his knee and come back and win it again for the Lakers. The bad news for the Lakers is Odom's injury. He is their second leading scorer and the leading rebounder. They are saying he may be out for a month. The Lakers have played too many games at home and are now entering a difficult part of their schedule where they have to play a tonne of games on the road. I would have to think they are going to slide a bit in the standings now. On the other hand, Kobe will try to step up big and try to keep it going for the Lakers. Its gonna be tough.
Golden State won easily against Saramento. Its amazing to see these 2 teams. They almost have the same record, but the Warriors are so much more exciting and their future looks so much more brighter with all the young talent at their disposal. They look like the Kings of few years back and the Kings look average at best. They have to blow that team up and rebuild ASAP. Both Bibby and Artest had 4/14 nights and thats not going to get the job done. Matt Barnes had another great game. He is from Sacramento and has a “Sac Town's Finest” tattoo on his shoulders. He had 32 and 11 and hurt the Kings from downtown to blow their zone defense up.
Denver beat Atlanta without Joe Johnson. Atlanta without Joe Johnson is like an aircraft without wings. They may lose all their games without him. Marvin Williams did have a monster dunk in the game.
LA Lakers @ Houston – 102-94
Sacramento @ Golden State – 113-126
Interesting games on the board for tomorrow, the Dec 13-th (Wednesday)
Denver @ Washington - Should be a fun, high-scoring game.
Phoenix @ Miami - Wade should put on a show here, but the Suns should win this one. This game would have been better with Shaq around.
LA Lakers @ Dallas - Another tough test for the Lakers on the road.
Utah @ LA Clippers - Can the Clips win a big game at least at home? They may need this one to turn their season around.
