Lakers Beat Knicks 120-109

Filed Under Lakers  |

Kobe almost had a triple-double (24pts, 11reb, 8asst) plus Sasha came through in the 4th quarter scoring 12 points to snap a 3 game skid.

Lakers lost Luke Walton to a right hip pointer injury in the 1st quarter…I almost feel like this team is cursed as Luke joins Bynum, Mihm and Ariza on the sidelines.

It was an ugly game, no question about it…Kwame missed some easy layups and free throws, Lamar looked like he was playing hurt, Kobe did not get started till late in the game. Just glad they got a win before their 9 game road trip starting this Thursday at Detroit.

The Lakers’ next game at Staples Center will be Feb. 19 against Atlanta. They’ll travel a total of 8,173 miles on their long road trip, which finishes Feb. 13 at Minnesota.

Cool to see Spike Lee at the game…on our trip to New York a few years ago, we attended a Knicks game vs Philly, and I got to see him on the floor, as we had row 2 seats. A true Knicks fan, NY’s version of Jack Nicholson.

LA takes the season series 2-0.

Next game: Thursday night at Detroit 4:30pm (5:30 TV) PST

    I can’t believe we needed Sasha to pull us out of this one. If we lost to the Knicks I was going to stop supporting the Lakers. Having them score 109 on us is embarrassing as it is, something like 15 points over their season average. I just hope our team gets healthy again sometime in March so we have enough time to play the 2nd season together and get ready for the playoffs!
