Meh, kinda hard to get too upset when you see it coming a mile away.

I'll be pissed off on Xmas though, because losing to the Celtics is like cutting your penis off seconds before orgasm. Or something. It really sucks.


Wow, that's a visual I didn't really need. :shrug:

But, I hope you have a pair of scissors or a knife handy. :D

What a WIN!!!!!! I mean, we only had to come back down 9 in the fourth, but we were playing the Grizzlies man..the GRIZZLIES. What a hard fought effort.

I hear that Xmas train a'coming...it's comin round the bend. It's gonna take our heads off, I'm sorry Renz.

Good, solid win over the Hornets with tough defense. Farmar getting surgery.

I've been harsh on this team, but if they beat the Celtics tomorrow I won't complain again until the postseason.

It would be awesome to be the team to stop their little streak. By little I mean - not 33 games.

Hey, they played like Boston and beat them at their own game. It was nice to see the Lakers play physical.

KG gets away with murder, btw.

Paul Pierce must not have brought his wheelchair, because he fell 4 times where he surely must have wanted it. Rondo tried his best Paul Pierce Miracle Moment, but nobody gave a crap so he had to get up with "the wind knocked out of him." Tony Allen was caught on tape being assaulted by the invisible man, which led to the longest jump ball preparation in history. It was like the wedding of all jump balls, and the rehearsal dinner went on for hours, but at the last minute, the wedding was called off.

There were some cheapsillynotreally offensive fouls called on the Celts during the five minutes I was watching it. I couldn't watch much because jerkyface knickfan uncle who no one likes kept saying dumb things about the Lakers.

It was also funny to hear Bullfan cousins say "man, Phil looks old!"

To be honest, with the Cards going strong right now and the Lakers not on national TV, they are kind of on the back burner for me at the moment.

However, I did not miss the fact that the lakers right now have the BEST RECORD IN THE NBA!!!

Former Laker Von Wafer nails a late three pointer to down the Celtics for ANOTHER loss.

LOL at the Celtics. The Lakers beat them on Christmas, and it's the gift that keeps on giving...they are losing like gangbusters since.

Phillip on the "Machine"


We just had to come to the conclusion that Sasha's just an emotional player that plays by the seat of his pants, and that's about it. He just doesn't have a brain," Jackson said Friday. "He's just out there whacking away and working really hard. He's not using his head out there at times. We're working with him, hoping that he will.

Bynum out with a torn MCL, or ACL, 8 to 12 weeks.


Doh!

I'd be upset if the Cards hadn't just been in the Super Bowl.

I kind of don't care about much sports related right now.

You should care about how much Abomb looks like the rock on facebook.

Got rid of Vlad and brought in the Stache. Interesting.

We'd kill the league in a hippy looking white guy pickup game.
