    I love how Turiaf stands up every time the Lakers do something good and jumps around and celebrates. It's great, he's lovin his time in the NBA, and he has a new appreciation for life. You gotta love the kid. [​IMG]

    Ronny has already become in my Top 5 favorite lakers right now.

    You know it's funny, at the beginning of the game, Ronny was all over the place.

    But, it's gotten to the point, where if he doesn't jump up and go crazy, you're like "wtf, is Ronny in a bad mood?" Like, he's expected to jump up every play now.

    Anyways, In the second or third quarter, he was even't clapping or jumping up and down, so I'm guessing something was bothering him, cuz I found that akward, anyone else notice it?

    I've loved this guy since his first years with Gonzaga. He's a fireball, and what I think of as the reason why Adam Morrison is where he's at.

    Turiaf. Plus Morrison. Equals Greatness.

    Cheesy, I know. [​IMG]

    Ronny's celebrations

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">He's only been in the league for a minute, but Ronny Turiaf is already one of the most entertaining "celebration" guys to watch since Mateen Cleaves was in his prime.

    And Ronny had plenty to celebrate in L.A.'s dismantling of the Kings.

    Whenever the Lakers did anything good, we couldn't help but check for Ronny's reaction. </div>

    I know we already have an official Ronny thread, but his celebrations during the game deserve a thread of their own. I've been watching highlights on nba.com and even I've noticed how crazy he goes after every Kobe play. I even noticed that other players were getting up off the bench and going a little crazy too. It only takes one for the others to follow. This is going to do wonders for our team chemistry, it will definatly help us execute more. God bless Ronny!
