Shannon Brown hit three 3-pointers and added a season-high 15 points against the Hornets.
不过当安猪缺阵时,DJ在他生涯的第三,四次首发中很好的扮演了他的角色.在周五114-98战胜灰熊的比赛里他得到5分和生涯新高的13个篮板.然后周日104-88战胜黄蜂的比赛他更是拿下了生涯首次两双10分12篮板.布朗也投中了3个三分,并贡献了赛季新高的15分.
"We believed this was going to be a really,really tough game," Kobe Bryant said after scoring 26 of his 28 pointsin the first half. "Because of that, everybody's antennas were up, andeverybody was really focused. We got a lot of help from DJ, Shannon,all the bench guys. There are going to be nights when we struggle, andwe'll need their help."
上半场砍下26分全场28分的科比说道“我们知道这会是一场非常艰苦的比赛,正因如此,我们每个人的发条都紧绷着,我们都非常专注.我们的替补提供了很多能量,像DJ,布朗...以后我们也会遭到挣扎的夜晚,我们需要他们的帮助.”
Bryant averaged 28.3 points and 6.8 reboundsas the Lakers won three of four versus the Suns in 2008-09. In theteams' last matchup March 1, Bryant had 49 points and 11 boards in a118-111 loss in Phoenix.

The Lakers will likely be without forward PauGasol, who has yet to play this season because of a strained righthamstring suffered in the preseason.
"I don't have any hopes for him on Thursday for sure," Jackson said Tuesday.
枷锁依然不能够上场,倒霉的右跟腱的伤势.菲尔也说“周四的比赛我没指望他能上场”. |
