Few things...
Lakers play better D with no Kobe.
Also, have played better D at home than on road.
Check totals on home games w/o Kobe...well below 200ppg.
Total inflated b/c of 1st leg of home/home and late game public chasing with over.
Only other Mem/LAL gm this season final total of 208 was road game for Lakers where they play no D for Kobe farewell tour.
Expecting to see some semblance of defense tonight. Neither offense just that good.
