This new rotation Jax has going with Odom off the bench running the second unit....yikes. It is like someone was mining for some gold and comes across the mother lode.

Let's see how they do on this road trip....Dallas and Hornets back to back.

Last year people on CB didn't believe in Ariza. Recognize.

The Lakers second unit can run and beat most teams first units. They are so deep it's ridiculous. I love how everyone is buying in, maybe not Luke. Must be tough for him.

Ariza is the man and perfect compliment to this team. He's can score without the ball and he plays great D and cleans the boards.

True, but it's the first game of the year. Some careless turnovers for sure. But I liked the tempo and that they pushed up the floor often. More than anything I liked the defense. The Lakers were all over the court and Bynum back in the middle helps a ton. Though he is still playing a bit tentatively it seems. He needs that moment where his knee is tested and he realizes he is okay and that it won't give him any problems.
