Second Half

Lakers started off the second half with a solid victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves 104-85. Lakers put together a nice game on both ends of the floor to win this one. Player of the game has to be the Mamba!! Playing with a broken nose and a concussion! Scored 31 points as old announcer Joel Myers would say AMAZING!! Bynum had 13 and 13 and had a new career high in double doubles in a season. Gasol finished with 15 points. But what the Lakers have prided themselves on all year is their defense! And it came through again tonight. Lakers pulled away in the 3rd quarter outscoring Minnesota 33-15. 30 points for the bench tonight which is way more than usual. Considering they came in while the Lakers were up by 20+ had a big reason to do with it but anyways it's a good confident booster for the streaky bench corps for the Lake Show. All in all a good solid win with nothing but positives to take away from it. Next game is Friday night. Lakers vs. Queens! Goodnight Laker fans!
