WOW! Lakers are good! They beat Pacers 134-114

The Lakers have been proving to the league that they are for real by beating Indiana 134-114 for their 4th straight win. It was another blowout for the Lakers just like the last game. Is it only me or all Laker fans excited as me? I hope Mr. Momentum stays with us all season! Kobe Bryant had 32 points in the game, 26 in the first half and Jordan Farmar had a career best 18 points. Andrew Bynum, who has impressed so far this season had another solid game getting 17 points and 10 rebounds. The Laker bench did a great job in the 4th quarter scoring 25 of the Lakers 30 points. The Lakers shot 58 percent and made 13-of-25 3-pointers and moved the ball very well through out the game.


Los Angeles acquired forward Trevor Ariza from the Orlando Magic for forward Brian Cook and swingman Maurice Evans earlier in the day. Ariza hadn't joined the Lakers by the opening tip.

"We lost two guys that are a part of our brotherhood,'' said Bryant, who has been surrounded by trade rumors himself this year. "That's always tough. I don't think anybody here feels particularly good about it. That's life.

"Everybody can feel down about it, but you can mope and moan about it on the bus. We came out here and took care of business.''

Lakers center Kwame Brown did not play tonight due to his sprained knee and ankle.

The Lakers 134 points in tonights game was the most points any NBA team has scored in a game so far this season.
