Whuppin' the Wizards
Posted by Flea on February 4, 2007, 4 p.m. ET

ok
last night the lakers get pummeled by the pacers
then today they whup the wizards
i dont know what in tarnation was going on during that pacers game
they could just not shoot the ball into the basket
i cant remember the lakers shooting so poorly
surprisingly they went on a good run in the 3rd just to get our hopes up
only to fall apart like a cheap suit in the 4th and crush our spirits
when i say 'our' i mean 'we' and we know who i am talking about.....
us l.a. kids who bleed purple and gold
anyways
it was a crying shame

however.......
they played well today in wizard world
kobe (kinda sorta) resisted the temptation to get in an all out
shootout with gilbert hibachi arenas
he kinda just did it enough to take the air out of the building
and he shot very well
played a great all around game
and did an impersonation of a prairie dog popping in and out of its
hole with a wildly dramatic triple pump fake on a wizard late in the
game to be fouled it was crazy looking
there was one moment though when he got fancy showing gilbert the
ball down low and gilbert just swiped it from him
anyways, kobe was great gotta lotta points, 8 or so assists ....
both lamar and andrew had over 10 boards at least and lamar hit some
huge threes down the stretch
had me distracted enough from my chess game that i got checkmated
even though i was in control damn it!
anyways, lakes get a W are now 2 and 2 on the road trip
hopefully on their day off tomorrow in georgia it will be sleepy time
down south and not an all night party with outkast and cee-lo in
hotlanta
so they can be focused....and intent on laying down the law for 48
minutes on the hawks, not this play good for a quarter or so then get
smoked when it counts business.........

i have really been enjoying smush parker alot lately
he has been adding a lot of zip to the lakers energy
and i hope for him to get a nice fat salary at the end of this
season......

GOOOOO LLAaAAKKEEERRRRS!!!!
