At some point Kobe is going to look at Pau and say, "Keep your chin up." There will be an awkward silence as they both realize he doesn't have one. Ron Artest is going to charge into the stands and pick random fights with drunkards. Not because he's mad, but just to break up the monotony of losing in the Rose Garden. Derek Fisher will just give up at half time and negotiate an endorsement contract with the Men's Warehouse. The tagline? "You're gonna love the way you look in these tuxedos. Believe me, I know coattails." Phil Jackson is going to make full use of his "medicinal" marijuana prescription, get roasted behind the Baghdad with two transients he mistakes for zen Buddhists, and show up 10 minutes before tipoff to read everyone TS Eliot's "The Hollow Man." He'll start bawling at the end, gurgling "not with a bang but a whimper" as he realizes he's ridden the jocks of all these great players to the hollow title of "most winning NBA coach," when really all he wanted was his mother to love him a little. The players shrug and consider this pregamer "restrained." In the end, the Lakers are going to get pounded tonight like an ugly Denver hotel employee.
I read your entire mini-treatise, and all I can say is...I have empathy for that ugly Denver hotel employee.
Well done! As for you DaRizz....when we want to hear the opinion of some ball-sackin', fudge-packin', tally-wackin', airline-highjackin' Laker fan boy - we will beat it out of you. All in good fun. of course!
DaRizzle's excuse is the headline of this article: http://www.sbrforum.com/Betting Art...akers-travel-portland-take-trail-blazers.aspx WTF?
So... since DaRizzle made such a bold prediction (if you call it bold, what, with us missing half our roster, a day after big shenangians, and guys who are playing tonight battling injuries).... It's currently 96-80, Portland. I say we again beat up on El Lay's bitch-asses. Sushi and Kobe... still bitches....
