Yahoo! The Lakers actually beat a crappy team. Kinda funny; recently, every time they ran into a good team, they played well, but they lost to the shitty ones, like the Sixers and the Grizzlies. The reason being, at least in my opinion: they needed to play at their level, otherwise they just got bored and didn't bother trying. Anyway, tonight (this being Tuesday, Jan. 29, 2002), they beat Atlanta!!! These are the Lakers I know, the team that plays well no matter what, has no qualms about blowing out a far weaker unit (by 34 points or so), and has a pretty well balanced offensive attack (Shaq, Kobe, Richmond, Fisher, Walker, and Fox all scored in double figures). I am overjoyed, needless to say.
By the way, if any of you are into basketball, and want to find a good NBA-related web site, look no further than
ESPN's NBA section Great articles, commentaries, game recaps, etc. await within. Have a blast :).
