湖人们回家过圣诞仍然没法消停 科比和枷锁提醒众将，在打完艰难的东部客场之旅后，回到主场的首战要注意了——天干物燥，小心火烛。
“从客场回来之后的第一站通常是最最难打的。不过我们已经准备好了。”——大神科比如是说。

在受完了酷刑般的连续客场之旅之后还没12个小时，湖人们就得马不停蹄的赶回家备战周一晚上vs俄克拉荷马雷霆的比赛。
而湖人们毫不松懈的说，回到主场的第一站将不比客场作战好受多少，虽说他们在东部风雪交加以及短的可怜的休息的状态下还拿下了最后四场客场战役。
“打完客场之后回到主场的第一战通常是最最辛苦的，不过来吧，我们已经准备好了，”老大科比在球队训练后的采访中说道。
为啥呢？大神如此回答：“虽然不敢确定，但是我的观点是：在客场之旅后，让身体再适应本地的环境，并找回正常的状态确实很麻烦。”（老大目前场均28.8分排名联盟第二~）
枷锁也相当同意这个说法，不过他还是忍不住抱怨说好不容易回到娘家，立马就得参加训练着实艰难得很。
“你想嘛，打完痛苦的客场之后，我们身体状况还没恢复过来，这样一来就会发生咱相当不愿意看到的情况——回到主场的第一战打得有气无力。”
在常规赛打了近三分之一后，之前的四连胜让湖人战绩提升到联盟最高的22胜4负。
但是禅师给大家敲响了警钟，这个上赛季总冠军之所以战绩这么好，很大程度上得益于主场优势。湖人的22战有17场都是在主场打的。
“所以说，现在的战绩根本不值得翘尾巴，”禅师还强调12月份剩下的四战的对手都不容小觑。
“雷霆目前的战绩是胜负相当，除了这个，国王还在一边虎视眈眈。太阳的主场一直让人胆寒，而骑士，更别说了，也是一个大大的挑战。”
对骑士这么吸引眼球的比赛将在圣诞之夜进行，且看科比如何大战螃蟹。
禅师不无忧虑的说，辉煌的战绩下，湖人的进攻还有待提高。
“我觉得我们完全能做得更好。我们在进攻方面的很多长处都没有得到充分的发挥。而让这一切可悲的发生的是，没有训练的时间（指的是这次客场之旅），这样的话就只能在正式比赛时去慢慢找节奏，进攻的节奏因此大受影响。“
科比的指伤
我们的神说他右手的撕脱性骨折“大概还会烦扰我一个月左右。”
在下了这个结论后，科比补充说“我不得不小心保护它了，尤其是在防守的时候。不过进攻投篮的时候也会有小小的影响。
不过尽管如此，指伤并没有阻止他在对阵公牛，雄鹿，篮网和活塞时分别拿下42，39，29，28分的华丽数据。
他也因此当选本周西部最佳球员。
枷锁的续约
在答应和湖人续约三年之后，枷锁说还需要点时间来完善一些细节问题。
“一旦完全解决了续约问题，我将会非常非常非常高兴和感恩，”他说。“这个地方这个环境都让我很满意，我乐故我在，哦也~”
合同据说价值6470万美刀，枷锁将在湖人效力到2013-14赛季。
禅师说这个续约意味着“向湖人粉丝们宣言，湖人正在牛掰并将一直牛掰下去。”

Lessthan 12 hours after returning from a grueling trip, the Lakers got backto work Monday to prepare for Oklahoma City tonight at Staples Center.
Andto hear the Lakers tell it, that game will be just as challenging asthe five on the road, the last four of which they won despite dealingwith Eastern snowstorms and curtailed sleep.
"The first game back from a road trip is always the toughest one, but we'll be ready," Kobe Bryant said after the team practiced at its training facility in El Segundo.
Why?"Not sure, I think just all the traveling and your body getting[acclimated] again to the time zone, and trying to get back into aroutine," said Bryant, who is second in the league in scoring with anaverage of 28.8 points per game.
Pau Gasol agreed, even though he said that having to practice so soon after returning home "was a struggle."
"Butcoming back from a long road trip, we have to get our bodies going,otherwise the first game is always a little sluggish and we don't wantthat to happen," Gasol said.
The four consecutive wins improvedthe Lakers' record to a league-best 22-4 nearly one-third of the waythrough the regular season.
Coach Phil Jackson said thatif he had to pick one reason why the reigning NBA champions are off tosuch a strong start, it would be "great scheduling for home court." TheLakers have played 17 home games so far versus nine on the road.
"We'verun up a record that's appropriate for a team of our skill," Jacksonsaid, with "four more games left to finish out December [against] goodopponents.
"Oklahoma is a .500 team, but other than that,Sacramento is way up there . . . Phoenix is always a very tough matchupon their home court, Cleveland is a challenge regardless."
The Lakers play the Cavaliers and LeBron James at Staples Center on Christmas Day.
And despite their record, the Lakers need to keep improving on offense, Jackson said.
"Ithought we could do some better execution," he said of their play onthe trip. "A lot of our skills offensively I think eroded a little bit.That happens when you don't have practice time and you don't put in thekind of time you have to have to . . . get the timing and rhythm youneed on offense."
Bryant's finger
Bryant said the fractured index finger on his right hand "will probably bother me for a month or so."
Asfor making adjustments to compensate for the injury, Bryant said, "Ihave to protect it a lot more, particularly on defense. Offensively,handling the ball is still a little bit of an issue, shootingsometimes."
Even so, the finger didn't stop him from scoring 42,39, 29 and 28 points against Chicago, Milwaukee, New Jersey and Detroiton the trip that ended Sunday.
Bryant on Monday was named Western Conference player of the week.
Gasol's extension
Havingagreed in principle to a three-year contract extension, Gasol said hestill needs to take a physical to get the deal completed.
"Onceit's done and signed and finalized, I'll be extremely happy andthankful once again," he said. "I'm definitely in a good place and I'mexcited about it."
The deal could be worth up to $64.7 million and would keep him under contract through the 2013-14 season.
Jacksonsaid the extension was "a statement to Laker fans and the NBA that theLakers are committed to really putting a good team on the floor for thenext few years."
