    Just read a great point from someone. The way Kobe was shooting the half-court shots while we were fouling Dwight Howard, we probably should faked the foul and just let him heave a shot needlessly. That would have been hilarious.

    Because I live in Austin, I watch the games on League Pass. When the Rocks play a team like the Lakers, we get both the home and the away feeds, and they replay the games, both home and away. So I've been watching the Lakers feed of the second half, and towards the end of the game, you can hear the disbelief in the Lakers broadcast team's voices. Too much! I just love it when we beat the Lakers. Always have, of course. The Lakers were crazy not to rehire Jackson to coach that team, but I'm damn glad they didn't.

    would have been funny but with Crawford being the ref the "anticipation foul" would have surely been called -- i am sure a lot of those times he was blowing the whistle before the actual contact.

    Is there a Toney Douglas post-game interview?

    LOL I see math isn't Dwight's strong suit either.

    Wow I missed this game. Looking at the box score all the starters were terrible and all the bench players were amazing.

    I guess LA's bench is just that bad?

    At least he grabbed 10 rebounds and hit 9 FTs though... still a pretty sad shooting night.

    But yeah, statistically this was the worst win of the season. Relying on Greg Smith and Toney Douglas to win you ballgames isn't going to get you far in the long run.
