A great article about the Lakers' defensive schemes so far this season:
http://www.basketballprospectus.com/...?articleid=438
I'm interested to see how this affects us. If the Lakers keep up this style of defense against us tonight, I think Jason Kidd's ball-handling and passing skills will be a great asset for us. And Dirk, Terry, and Green should have some great 3-point opportunities if Kidd's able to swing the ball out of the traps. Let's hope the 3 ball is falling tonight!

Wow, a Lakers fan who posts with class and respect. Cheers - wish there were more of you guys around!
Hopefully the Lakers fans at the AAC aren't too obnoxious tonight but I suspect they will be. That Rockets game a couple weeks ago was brutal...

Your jokes aren't crappy 99% of the time. Aren't you glad I read the 1%?

Go and tell it Carlisle. Otherwise Dirk and Kidd will play 36-37 minutes and Stack, Bass and Terry will play together...

I always look forward to the Mav's-Laker games because I can't stand Mark Cuban and he despises Kobe and the Lakers. Like I said it will be a good close game.

The Lakers are giving up six points.
If you have a gambling problem, I think you should "go for it".

For this reason alone, the Mavs have a great shot. I have never seen this argument successfully invoked.

According to Fish, Howard is doubtful tonight. Ugh. That puts a dent into things.

The only chance the Mavs have is if Dirk somehow rallies the troops and they play swarming defense and decide to run the Lakers to death. It could happen but I really don't believe it will.

Let Kobe get his points ..play Green or Wright on him and stay on everyone else. The Lane will be clogged and Bynum wont go off offensively, Gasol on the other hand mite with Dirk guarding him, so Dirk needs to step up. Kidd is fine and Jet should be OK..because fisher is not that big of a threat.
Offensively go to Dirk and Jet and dont stop...get Green some touches and go from there
MAVS WILL WIN...

Dirks D on Gasol or whoever hes guarding will be the Key because lately hes been everyone BITCH on D..and I trust Damp to Handle one guy, but if hes battling 2 guys its over

Well, no, obviously I don't objectively or reasonably believe that the Mavs will win tonight. But, they have a chance, so I'm gonna roll with that and have fun with it.

^ Plus it's a little too early to just assume defeat. If we lose by 5 or less then yes the moral victory does count since Howard is out. If Howard was playing then we'd have an ok chance of winning.
I just want the team to at least be entertaining to watch.
