    All we have to do is guard Peja & Paul this time...Peja doesn't sound too hard to stick with...but guarding Paul will probably be a challenge for Fisher...

    In the Hornets' last 16 games...only 4 have scored 100 points against them...the last two have, which are the Suns and Warriors...3 of the 4 teams that have scored atleast 100 points against them in their last 16 games are 1st, 2nd, & 4th in scoring PPG as a team...the Lakers are 3rd...let's see what we can do against the Hornets...

    The Hornets beat us last time, NOW it is payback time. Lakers by 7. Stop the two main scoring threats. Peja and Paul.
    The bench has to really step forward against the Hornets.

    Can't forget about David West...he's playing really good right now...but if we can make Paul seem invisible out there that means that shooters won't get too many shots, & all Chandler will do is play defense and rebound...no scoring for him without Paul...

    Yeah, we would be a half game ahead of them and we own almost every team in the west right now head to head (only Dallas has a better western conf record and we haven't played them yet). We need to really continue to take advantage of our schedule this month and climb the standings. Should be a good game but if we come out with the same intensity as in previous big games this season, we should come out with the win. I hope we start Ariza this game too, for defensive purposes.

    CP3 is of course our biggest threat to worry about. He is the main reason why the Hornets are playing so well. We need to hold him under 10 assists at the least, which means we cannot leave any man (especially Peja) alone in three-point land, plus we cannot break down defensively and have Paul feed their big men easy baskets.

    Peja isn't a serious threat as long as we keep his three-ball in check (start Ariza please). West could be a problem, since we aren't that good defensively at the 4. Bynum might struggle against Chandler unless Bynum takes it to him offensively and attack the basket aggressively. Thankfully, despite their tough starting lineup, they're pretty thin with the rest of their roster, so look for our bench mob to dominate.

    LET'S GO LAKERS!!

    Very hard game if we collapse on Chris Paul and let the shooters open....

    I have a great feeling that we will stick on the shooters and we will win the game through our defense

    this is gonna be a tough game, we need a player to stick with peja,please DON'T PUT WALTON ON PEJA, we need the first unit to take the best out of their starters, they don't have bench, if we keep the game close, we can destroy them in the last minutes...

    We need to lock down on Paul, Stojakovic, and West

    If I recall in the past couple of years, it seem
