Yeah, the Lakers still have an 8 game lead over the Spurs. There's 22 games left, unless they have a Mets style collapse to end the season they should end with the #1 spot. They need to get their act together though, they are even in the Loss column with Cleveland.

LAKERS: Lakers Gameday | 03/01/09 | Suns 118, Lakers 111

Shaq, Suns overcome Kobe to beat Lakers 118-111

Quote:

PHOENIX(AP) Shaquille O'Neal scored 33 points and the Phoenix Suns overcame a 49-point performance by Kobe Bryant to beat the Los Angeles Lakers 118-111 on Sunday.
Matt Barnes added 26 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists as the Suns, without Steve Nash for the third straight game because of a sprained right ankle, beat the Lakers for the first time in four tries this season.
Pau Gasol added 30 for the Lakers, who have lost two in a row for just the third time this season.
After his 45-point game against Toronto on Friday night, O'Neal has consecutive 30-point games for the first time since March 5-7, 2004, when he and Bryant were dominating teammates in Los Angeles.
Bryant made 18 of a season-high 38 attempts in the 96th 40-point game of his career. He scored 17 points in a span of less than four minutes early in the second half.
Leandro Barbosa added 22 points and Grant Hill 17 for the Suns, who improved to 6-2 since Alvin Gentry replaced the fired Terry Porter and returned the team to Mike D'Antoni's fast-paced style. It was the Gentry-led Suns' first win, though, over a team with a winning record.
Phoenix is 1 1/2 games behind Dallas for the eighth and final playoff berth in the West.

I need to get a Mbenga jersey, he may be one goofy lookin' dude, but tonight he kicked some ass when he was in. I wish I had gone to this game, stopping for tacos on the way home would have been nice.

Lakers win, 99 to 89, Conley had a good game, I just wish he was on a better team, and on a different note, I wish Greg could stay healthy.

Man, the one place that I shudder every time we play, in Portland... Let's see if the Lakers can come out and play like the Lakers.

The Lakers are 6 and 25 in the Rose Garden since Showtime... So, let's hope the streak ends.

Ouch, I definitely did not realize that. I would venture they are better in every other single opposing arena during that same span??

I was talking about my streak for the cash, I have L.A. winning tonight, although I've been burnt twice before by picking them. Let's hope that streak ends too.

Lakers down by 9 at the end of the First quarter, Odom on the bench with 2 fouls already.
