Game Thread: December 16, 2013: Lakers vs. Hawks, 7:30 EST, FSS TV

The Kobe Bryant comeback continues in Atlanta, where he will be going against Jeff Teague (if he is playing point guard again).

Hawks coming off of a bad loss against the Knicks.
Lakers coming off a win against an up and coming Charlotte.

Two teams who are basically having pointless seasons.

The Hawks could have signed a big free agent and struck out, and don't have enough scoring to secure the third seed in the East.

The Lakers have two aging HOFers, a coach who doesn't like either of them, another HOFer who needs to retire, and bunch of guys who probably won't be back next season.

Lakers easy win... Expecting a big game from Pau

Lakers easy win... Expecting a big game from Pau

Which team drafted Pau Gasol?
Which team traded him away for Shareef Abdur Rahim?

Maybe this summer, we might sign him to a 2 years, 20 million deal. He can take Elton Brand's spot, who needs to retire.

For this game, the Hawks are typically good in coming back after bad losses.
We should come out strong and win this game.
Teague needs to iso Kobe and drive to the basket. Teague has footspeed and quickness, while Kobe is still getting his conditioning and timing back.
