  1. @Jpdabrams - Read Chris Ballard's new book yet?
  2. Kobe Bryant is 4th in the league in +/- (+137) while @Basketball_Ron is 5th (+135).
  3. After 14 games, Kobe Bryant is shooting a career high 48.8% FG & is back over 30 pts (30.1) per game, 0.1 behind 'Melo.
  4. Postgame story - Lakers Handle Glass, Knicks in Win: http://bit.ly/4IU3Hr
  5. Solid D from LA: "They're really aggressive on defense, made it hard for us to catch the ball easy." - NY's Wilson Chandler.
  6. Kobe Bryant was +25 in the 40 minutes he spent on the court, meaning L.A. got outscored by 15 with him on the bench.
  7. How did NY (sorta) come back in the fourth? 16 second half turnovers for LA, 25 total, plus 7 threes. Still lost by 10.
  8. Your stat of the game: L.A. outrebounds the Knicks 60-36. Gasol and Odom combined for 28 boards themselves.
  9. Kobe postgame: "We played exceptional defensively for three and a half quarters ... we know what we can do."
  10. Lakers hold on to win by 10, 100-90 for the team's 4th straight double-digit win at home. They're now 11-3 on the season.
  11. Bryant has played 40 minutes tonight ... and has 34 points on 14-of-20 shooting (70%), 4 assists, 3 steals & 5 reb.
  12. If L.A. holds on to win by 10 (up 14 w/2:04 left), it will be the fourth-straight double-digit home win.
  13. L.A. has gotten little to no scoring off its bench (10 points) while all 5 starters are in double figures.
  14. Knicks just rolled off a quick 11-0 run, capped by back-to-back 3's, to come within 14 at 91-77, 5:02 left.
  15. Bryant scored 13 points in the 3rd got him to 30 as L.A.'s 28-17 edge produced an 83-62 total. Meanwhile, D'Antoni emptied his pine.
  16. Lakers used a 15-0 run in the 3rd to put this one theoretically out of reach. Gasol has 16 boards already, L.A. up 50-27 on glass.
  17. No word on if Gasol's hammer dunk on Danilo Gallinari's dome has affected international relations between Spain and Italy.
  18. Fisher did his best Larry Bird impression by drawing a charge to quell a 3-on-1 Knicks fastbreak. Asst. coach Hamblen clapped for 15 sec.
  19. L.A. has outscored N.Y. 15-7 to start the 3rd, and leads by 18 after Artest's 20-footer. Ron Ron has 12 pts, 6 reb & 2 asst.
  20. Phil Jackson didn't appear to like how Bynum played a defensive possession where Lee got a free layup, & Odom checked in.
