    So yesterday the wife wanted to go shopping for a bit so she dragged me out to LA to hit up a bunch of different places.

    On the way we saw a huge billboard that said Lakers vs Rockets before we hit the first store and mentioned it to my wife.

    We get to the first store, do our thing and as soon as we are leaving on store I notice a black town car pull up. The back door opens up and I see someone that looks familiar. I do a double take and I'm like "hey that's Greg Smith". He steps out, then the front door opens up and Marcus Morris comes out as well. Finally the last person gets out of the car and it's Terrence Jones.

    I said what's up to them and said tough loss against Portland and mentioned I am originally from Houston and just moved out here and a big Rockets fan. They were all really nice and shook hands with me and said thanks. I brained farted for a minute as they started to walk in and my wife was like "don't you want a picture with them" I was like "oh yea", but at the point the only one let outside was Terrence Jones who was cool and took the picture withe me.

    We then proceeded to go and take care of the rest of our shopping for a few more hours in a different part of town. My wife was mentioning in the car that it was too bad "The Bearded Guy" wasn't there since she doesn't know any of those other guys.

    So our final stop before dinner was at a well known woman's shoe store in a completely different part of town. I was just moving along while she was looking at everything and I hear her go, "Hey it's the bearded guy". I'm like what? So i turn around and there is James Harden. I was like WTF? So said what's up to him and how big a Rockets fan I am and he was seemed to be in a hurry but was willing to take the pic with me.

    So the moral of the story is it is worth it to go shopping with your wife lol.

    BTW, the sales person mentioned that we just missed Derrick Rose by a few minutes since he was in town with the bulls as well.

    I know I know...Cool Story Bro.

    yeah she is. Even funnier is that Harden was right in front of her when she said it. But I guess women can get away with anything lol

    Go to 1356 Albany Street, 2 blocks from the Staples Center and you will find Lin at the First Evangelical Free Church. :grin:
