If Portland loses to Denver, this will have been a perfect night for the Lakers

I'm not worried about anyone else. We just need to take care of business.

Bench came up big tonight. We have a chance to get back to .500 vs ATL on Sunday before playing 10 of 14 on the road.

Rubio is a joy to watch; much more so when we're not playing him.

The refs trying to hand this game to the Lakers. Kobe walks and instead of calling the travel, they call a bogus foul on Josh Smith to put Kobe on the line and give the Lakers the lead.

Trash.

Lakers win by 1. The NBA can't risk the Lakers not making the playoffs so the refs are taking matters into their own hands.

Lakers pull out an ugly one in a must win game. Once again the brilliance of the individual triumphs over the strong team concept. Kobe is just terrorizing fools. His dunk on J-Smooth tonight was straight nasty.

Kobe was amazing as always, but you got to admit that phantom foul call on what should have been a travel was trash.

I felt like that was a make up call for the earlier no call when they said it went out off Kobe.

The Lakers shot 18 free throws to the Hawks 15. There were some questionable calls both ways, but all things considered I felt it was an evenly called game.

It was a fun game to watch. Just felt that was a huge call.

Having said that, Horford's missed point blank layup and Kobe's last possession were the difference.

So....the NBA made Atlanta turn the ball over to lost the game?

Uh, they wouldn't have been in that situation if they had the lead dumbass.

You think there's an NBA conspiracy and I'm the dumbass. You never fail to be a joke

Kobe injured.

Most injury plagued team ever

Maybe he wore his elbow out practicing so much.

Dwight hurt now too

Perkins dismayed at the foul called on him on the tip over Kobe.

Given this is his reaction to every foul ever called on him, it is tough to judge from his reaction whether this was a bad call.



Kobe thought it was a good call.
Diet Cokehead

That was a terrible call. Even the annoucers made fun of Perkins though saying that he actually had a legit complaint for once.

Who is this Reggie Jackson character? How was Boston College not better with an NBA rotation player on their roster last season? Just bizarre.

Lakers came out flat defensively, turned the ball over on offense, and just dug too big a hole in the first half. Kobe should be fine, but Dwight was playing in some serious pain. I am honestly amazed that we cut in to 5 and missed some wide open 3s that would've cut it even closer.

Credit to OKC for only committing two turnovers and going 22 of 24 from the line.

Ugly game, but not the end of the world as long as we win in NOLA tomorrow.

Reggie Jackson was a rookie last year.

With 10 minutes left in the game the Lakers were averaging a ft per minute. That along with 3 pt shooting kept the game seemingly close at times but OKC clearly is the better team. Game was never seriously in doubt.

That inbound play was hilarious.

Kobe is unreal.

how did the Lakers steal that game. my god. if they could learn to play every game like that 4th quarter.

Hell of a block by dwight.

Never have I seen a team so happy to get back to .500.

Never have i seen a team play through all the changes, unfortunate injuries, only to be right there for the playoffs taking finding ways to win games.

Boo Boo i hope you had League Pass to see that. unreal

The Hornets missed 12 consecutive shots and committed five turnovers in final 6:47. Lakers outscore them, 20-0, to win.

Kobe had 42 points on 14-of-21 shooting, 12 assists and seven rebounds.

Howard had 20 points, 15 rebounds, four blocks and three steals.

I live in LA so I see all the games.

My GF was watching Rand Paul and friends, but I got to see the 4th quarter.

i can only imagine the bile that was coming out of Stu Lantz's mouth through quarters 1-3.

sadly the LP broadcast had the hornets feed. which was weird because apparently Joel Meyers now works for them

Not sure if you get the post game on league pass, but Big Game James is great. He is super critical, but giving mad credit to Dwight for the win tonight. That block was a huge play.

Amazing how happy Dwight and Kobe are now that we're winning some games.

Kobe's the best...

Except it wasn't a block. He hacked the hell out of Lopez's arm/wrist.

But congrats on beating the lowly Pelicans.
