"The Lakers beat the SuperSonics..."
Ice Cube - It Was A Good Day
As a child, whenever I had a bad day, I'd go to the park and shoot hoops until I felt better. Now as an adult...I still play make those lonely trips to the playground, however...sometimes I'll run a few miles, or even write.
Habitual
The NBA playoffs officially kicked off last weekend...with the Cavs, and Magic playing exactly as expected, while the Trailblazers continued to amaze and win despite their injuries. Nonetheless, it was the Los Angeles Lakers that had all eyes on them. The Lake Show are the rock stars of the league, and reigning champs or not, the light always shines brightest in the city of angels.
After defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder 87-79, everyone questioned the Lakers play and poor shooting from Kobe. For some reason a lot of people felt compelled to call and text me...my response is simply this...it's the playoffs and all wins are good wins.
I expect Los Angeles to win the series, and move on to the second round. The Thunder will benefit greatly from their playoff experience, and next year they will be better, stronger, and faster...until then...keep your eyes on Orlando, Cleveland, and the Lake Show, because things are about to get exciting.
It's a marathon, not a sprint...first team to 16 wins, captures the crown.

Everyone is doubting the Lakers saying this and that..I think they're fine...yes they have shown some signs of slowing down or even not putting forth the effort...But when you have the best player in the world, bad finger or not...there is always hope. Last I checked they won game 1...whether by 20 or by 7 a win is a win. FYI That's one of my fave Kobe shirts...I own it lol
