Jareth Cutestory 678 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 Call me crazy, but we beat them once already this year. That was revenge enough. We will probably lose this one ala when LeBron returned to Cleveland. The place was full of energy, Cavs made a minuscule run in the beginning, and then got blown out.

The place was full of energy, Cavs made a minuscule run in the beginning, and then got blown out. I think we'll put up a good fight at the very least. The guy that scares me is Kobe. He loves this kind of atmosphere and is the one guy on the floor who has proven his ability to explode for huge games on the big stage. My gut tells me he's going to try and take over and dominate this game, even if only to steal the show from Dwight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My gut tells me he's going to try and take over and dominate this game, even if only to steal the show from Dwight. My thoughts exactly. Dwight can't throw the ball to himself - it's going to be Kobe, and to a lesser extent Nash, breaking down our defense. Play Dwight the way you do any aggressive shot-blocker: go right at him until he fouls out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
You're Fat, Pat! 98 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 Call me crazy, but we beat them once already this year. That was revenge enough. We will probably lose this one ala when LeBron returned to Cleveland. The place was full of energy, Cavs made a minuscule run in the beginning, and then got blown out. This is how I feel. Maybe if we had lost in LA, we could sneak a victory. I don't see it happening tonight though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 How does that happen? smh. He has the perfect voice to be a writer... And yes, he talked about how the fans should cheer Dwight, even though they won't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
30Assists 342 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 I still wish the crowd would just go dead-silent when they announce Dwight. Won't happen, but would be awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
You're Fat, Pat! 98 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 Here's a thought. What about Earl Clark? He's been starting of late. There's a good chance he'll start tonight. I know the entire Lakers team will be getting booed, but I'd like it if the crowd cheered him. Show #12 that we respect guys who play hard for the team and leave on good terms. Then maybe after the game, we could get another "Alright, thanks man." Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COLOMBIANO 118 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 I hope we win, but if we don't... Then foul the crap out of Howard every time he touches the ball and let him 25+ free throws tonight. That will for sure get him frustrated even if he gets a W Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
