Game Thread: Lakers Vs Spurs 2/19

[Vitamike]

Spurs making a good run at the end of the half.

Lakers had it down to 4 with just a couple of minutes left but here it is in double digits with the Spurs taking a 60-49 lead into the locker room.

Nice move by KB24!

Kobe having a pretty good 3rd, something like 11 in the quarter so far.

 

[Vitamike]

Back down to 4 with 4 to play.

103-99

Fun game to watch.

Despite the losses (which is kind of what we want anyway), the team is much improved and keeping the games close, even against some of the bigger boys.

Clarkson and Randle are playing really well.

Biggest issues last night were:

Turnovers (they had 15), which is to be expected from a young team, especially against a team like the Spurs and late in the game, the kids tried to lean on Kobe too much. Also to be expected from a young team.

Outside of those 2 things and needing to work on their defense (which has been season long), they played a good game and had a chance to win down the stretch. That's about all that can be asked vs. a team like the Spurs.

And Kobe hurt himself again.

And Kobe hurt himself again.

Just dislocated his middle finger. Shouldn't miss much, if any, time. X-rays were negative and as of last night, he hasn't even been ruled out for tomorrow.

Well, we know this is his last season so it will be just a case of playing time in between injuries that may or may not occur.
