    The untamed land known as parking garage is no place for a weak Laker fan.

    Good. I love seeing those fuckers leave early on the jumbotron. Tail tucked between their legs after their stupid bits of shit talking. Always end up leaving with 2 - 3 minutes left. HAHAHA. Fuck 'em.

    I just watched it on SportsCenter about 15 times. After the foul, Ariza doesn't go near Rudy to see if he was OK and instead immediately starts barking at the Blazers. It was deliberate, and he'll get his in the future, I'm sure.

    Watch it again. Ariza sees Rudy on the ground and starts yapping at the Blazer players like a psychopath. He's a punk from this point on.

    that's why I didn't leave until the game ended on opening night...didn't want to look like a straight up beeyotch.

    A lady next to me got a text from the hospital saying Rudy had feeling in his arm again last I heard.

    That's what Roy said in the intereviews after the game. Ariza was being a douchebag. Roy headed into his direction and Ariza started trash-talking before Roy said a word.

    Sounds like Rudy is gonna be okay, based on what they just said on the 5th Quarter show.

    His reaction is what made Brandon get so mad. I'm glad Roy won't be suspended but I would've enjoyed seeing him deck Ariza. Or Odom if he's not available.

    My bet is a rib or sternum injury. I would not be surprised to see him out for the rest of the year. This sucks, and that was a total BS play. The NBA needs a new rule where if you hurt a guy on a flagrant II you have to sit out until he comes back.

    Ruffin can earn his paycheck for the year by blasting Ariza in the face with an elbow on April 10th.

    Well your guess is as good as mine right now, but they keep saying on the 5th quarter that things look good, not as bad as first anticipated, etc. :shrug:

    Please expound upon that comment for those of us in hell (L.A.).


    Given how they've handled the Oden injury I'll take that with a grain of salt the size of Spain.

    They said he could move all his extremities, but that he was feeling pain in his chest.

    On the postgame show Nate said he'd heard from the hospital that they didn't think it was going to be serious but that Rudy would be in some pain tomorrow.

    Hopefully Rudy is OK and at 100% ASAP. I would bet that Batum's showboating and Rudy's celebrations after his three pointers and the overall score at the time added up to frustration for Ariza. It doesn't make it right, but it's at least semi-understandable.

    I'm rocking my Rudy Fernandez shirt to work tomorrow (boss is out of town, don't have to meet with anyone so I'll just throw a blazer over it).

    viva blazers!
