The Lakers already have Jack Nicholson sitting courtside at home games, which Jeanie Buss thinks might rattle opponents. "You just never know if he's going to bring out that character from 'The Shining,' " Buss said recently on "ESPN Hollywood."</div> Source
I think he should be at the games, especially when Bynum will be playing... It's always good to have a mentor right there with you....
