TIME: 10:00 PM ET

TV: TWC SN

 

Phoenix turns the ball over quite a bit (28th in TOs) and they can't shoot threes (29th).  They move the ball around a lot, try to make the extra pass (which explains the turnovers), and they really don't do anything THAT well aside from being 10th on the glass.

 

Should be a win, even if Kobe doesn't play.

Plus side, their starting lineup included the Morris Twins along with Jermaine O'neal. MWP and Clark doesn't have to guard a big 4.

Bad side... They are going to be running the ball every chance they get and we're on a back to back in their building. And I have a feeling they'll "find" their three pointers this game.


We'll have to play hard and not let up defensively around the perimeter if we want to win, also need to not rush shots or turn it over or we get run out on tired legs.

If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.


You should reach more often ;)

Kobe should get this one more rest. hopefully we can finally win a back to back. Really we shouldn't lose for the rest of the month. Every team we are facing is a bad team except GS and lately they are a pretty bad team.

No Channing Frye and Marcin Gortat, Howard should have a field day. 



Arguably the greatest franchise ever

The team needs to keep a sense of urgency (SP) play free and D up hard don't get pushed around under the basket.
