Beast of the Night: Joakim Noah outplayed an intimidating Lakers frontcourt and finished with 11 points, 20 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 6 blocks and 3 turnovers. He missed a bunch of tip-ins and consequently shot just 25 percent (4-16) from the field and 75 percent (3-4) from the line, but his overall line was still gaudy.

Notable lines:
Wilson Chandler – 6-13 FG (46%), 3-4 FT (75%), 1 3ptm, 16 Pts, 7 Reb, 2 Ast, 2 Stl, 2 Blk, 3 TO

Boris Diaw – 3-4 FG (75%), 6 Pts, 8 Reb, 2 Ast, 1 TO

Kobe Bryant – 15-26 FG (58%), 11-15 FT (73%), 1 3ptm, 42 Pts, 2 Reb, 3 Ast, 3 Stl, 8 TO

Pau Gasol – 3-8 FG (38%), 4-4 FT (100%), 10 Pts, 16 Reb, 2 Ast, 2 Blk, 2 TO

Richard Hamilton – 10-22 FG (46%), 1 3ptm, 21 Pts, 4 Reb, 4 Ast, 1 TO

Tracy McGrady – 1-2 FG (50%), 0-2 FT (0%), 1 3ptm, 3 Pts, 3 Reb

Tim Duncan – 14-22 FG (64%), 6-7 FT (86%), 34 Pts, 14 Reb, 1 Ast, 1 Ast, 3 Blk, 1 TO

Andre Miller – 2-10 FG (20%), 4 Pts, 3 Reb, 3 Ast

Waiver wire watch:
Rafer Alston, Jared Jeffries, Brad Miller, Kirk Hinrich, DeJuan Blair

Injuries:
Delonte West (personal): he’s still too risky to own in most leagues

Ryan Gomes (ankle): could miss two weeks

Keyon Dooling (hip): hoping for Saturday return

Yi Jianlian (lip): stitches removed, will practice again next week

Allen Iverson (knee, shin): missing practices [insert joke here], should play through the pain for game nights though

Who to watch tonight:
Mike Dunleavy, Brandon Rush, Monta Ellis, Hedo Turkoglu, Brandon Jennings
