Perfect timing. Just yesterday I started to get sick.
I want to thank DB, Popcorn, Misti, and the crew from Clublakers that made the experience the most enjoyable yet.
Quote: | The game started slow as foul calls were made every 20 seconds within the first 4 minutes of the game. Flow of the game and tempo were continually interrupted by silly foul calls or poor calls. The Lakers found themselves down 4-13 with 5:46 left in the 1st quarter. After a timeout, they had a 13-6 run, sparked by Jordan Farmar on a couple of 3-pointers, a drive dish situation to setup Douthit, and a 10′ pull-up jump-shot off of a high pick and roll situation. The quarter ended with the Lakers down 19-22.
By halftime, the score was 48-53, practically even in the 2nd quarter. Kasib Powell had a nice sequence of plays within the first 4 minutes, with a weakside blocked shot on Terence Kinsey, a 3-pointer, .... |

If I get sick, I'm telling my boss it's your fault.
Thanks for the lesson on the triangle and for the laugh, I got just one thing to say - Botox!
You did miss the show though, Von Wafer had a shooting contest with one his friends afterwards, he made like 20 shots in a row and won $240 off his friend. _________________ MistiLynn

Too bad he's not efficient in the actual games. |

See that is what makes me wonder about Wafer. He can shoot, but he is not doing it within the confines of the triangle. Now I am starting to think that Pinnock has a chance to make the squad over Wafer.
Reading posts by LGers that are attending games, I am thinking that Green>Pinnock>Wafer.
Great read Mike! |

A shame I missed it. Had to bring uncle home early for work the next day.
I would've liked to challenge Wafer in a shooting contest though. _________________ Resident Car Nut.

I walked out with Pop while Wafer sank 5 or 6 three's in a row. He's got skills...but like I said it's like we are trying to fit a square peg in a Triangle-shaped hole. It ain't a natural fit. |

I watched a bit of that shooting match as well.. fun stuff. I left when they were going back and forth between $30 and $40 -- I guess Wafer got hot after that :)

Oh yeah, you missed it. It was crazy, he couldn't miss a shot.
I caught a couple minutes of it on video. Want me to e-mail it? |

^Nah, thanks for the offer though.
After watching my dad make 35 21' jumpers in a row... I'm pretty sure how strong NBA caliber shooting is. _________________ Resident Car Nut.
