Make it 19 wins in a row!

Against the Timberwolves that it is. The Lakers won their 19th game in a row against the Timberwolves. This game brought the start of the Ramon Sessions era. Although Sessions did play Jordan Hill was in street clothes and will play his first game with the Lakers sunday vs the Jazz. Kobe had a game high 28 points, while Pau Gasol had 17 and Andrew Bynum finished with 15. Kobe led the team all the way making 5 of his 8 three pointers. In Ramon Sessions debut he played 19 minutes and scored 7 points. Sessions didn't look too bad in the offense tonight after playing only a day after being dealt to the Lake Show.
Top performer off the bench was Matt Barnes. He had 17 big points to go along with 3 of 4 three pointers made. Lakers were in control from the beginning. They grabbed the lead early in the first quarter and never looked back. The Timberwolves tried to mount the comeback in the 4th quarter getting within 5 at one point but Kobe and the lakers were just too strong and took the game in the end. Lakers looked very relaxed in this game and won the game pretty easily. The Lakers will host the Utah Jazz at the Staples Center Sunday! Another good opportunity for the Lakers to get their 6th win a row.
