i am here in the pristine and beautiful rural australian coastline
waves are crashing kangaroos are hopping babies are laughing and golf
balls are rolling in for par
but, alas, there is no hoops
except for the cracked old court in my back yard
there is no hoops
except for my running around with a to' up old ball in the australian
sun there is no hoops
all i can do is see the box scores on the computer, and i couldn't even
do that for a week til a couple of days ago
imagine my dismay, when i first look and what do i find?
lakers lose 5 in arow
kobe suspended for 2 games
lamar has a sprained ankle
cookie has the flu
jesus
i wonder if kobe clocked mike miller on purpose
i guess he did
if he threatened him and all
man
i don't like that
i know kobe really takes a beating
but i have always been proud of him for just taking it
and playing excellent basketball
i'm sure i would crack and wack somebody if they smacked me like kobe
gets it all the time
but it still doesn't make it right
i don't approve
but i understand
even though i didn't see it
i wanted dwyane wade to break an ankle after he elbowed kobe in the
throat on christmas day
i am not yet an enlightened soul
i am no monk
working on it though

ahh, just got nba audio league pass
the clouds have parted
the sun shines again
lakers up by ten in the second over the sixers!

had to leave middle of the third
didn't really get to listen but
kobe 48 points!
10 rebounds!
19 for 29!
7 for 7 threes!
he is an intense man
smush rocked 5 for 5 threes
lamar with 12 assists and good boards too
yes
yes
yes
lakers will rise
cream always rises to the top
