Go Gophers, Great Big Ten Opener

Atmosphere at the barn (William Arena) was electrifying as always. Gophers got into a great start. It was good to see that both defense and offense was getting click right from the beginning. Hoffarber was red hot from get go. Pen State rallied for a come back in the second half, but Westbrook got really hot at the second half and put an end to Pen State’s come back by hitting some great shots from downtown. As I said, what a great way to start the BIG TEN Opener.

Want to smack Ariza’s agent

As a Laker fan I hate to see young talent get slip away from Laker Locker room. I hate Ron Artest but thats a different story, beside that I think it was a bad deal for Lakers in the long run. He had the potential to be a franchise face for Lakers. I think entire story was controlled by Ariza’s agent. It was all agent not willing to agree for little bit less money. When you compare the two deal it was not much different.

This is where you can test real ethics and moral behind a basketball player even though we all know all these players only care about Green. If you take a look at Ariza’s basketball career, He was a part of the deal that happen with Orlando and when you compare Ariza with the names in that deal (Brain Cook & Evens, I think), Lakers made Ariza’s career from just another NBA player to high paying NBA basketball Player. Lakers cant take the entire credit but its substantial enough. So, Ariza should have the decency to agree for a smaller deal and stay with Lakers because having the opportunity to win his second NBA Championship ring is priceless.

Can’t ask a better NBA playoffs starting week, Lakers Won & Boston lost to Chicago

As a Laker fan, you can’t ask better NBA PlayOffs starting week than what I saw this past weekend. I was saw happy to see that Chicago kicking the Boston’s rear end. Not a big fan of Chicago (not even the time Jordan, Scottie, and Rodman was playing) but I will take any team against Boston.

I have mentioned this many times, Doc Rivers simply because I also can coach a team if you give me three supper stars. If you watch carefully Boston doesn’t have template level plays that any point guard can come to a the system can execute. Because they don’t have play calls other than Paul doing his thing, Ray Allen only has his pretty jump shot and KG is just happen to some spiritual guy who has a consistent jump shot around the baseline.

So Boston, I hope you will not go beyond the first round of Play Offs, and Chicago I am pulling for you guys. Send that Green Rear End way it belongs…

Lakers played a solid game against Jazz, It was a perfect show of contribution from all the players. Kobe shows that he can get points where ever, when ever he wants by idling almost entire first half and end up with 24 points at the end of the game. Keep in mind he had 7 Assists.

I hope this year, Lakers and Cavaliers will come for the finals I hope and I want Lakers to win but if Cavaliers win I will not be frustrated like I did when Boston won it last year.

Go Lakers: Sorry Boston not this time

This year Lakers started series of educational lecturing session. First was How to beat Boston, at Staple Center and the lecture was given on the Christmas day by Kobe and the Lakers with some examples. And yesterday we saw the second lesson taught by Kobe and Lakers. But this time title was bit difference, it was How to beat Boston in their Stupid Green House. So all I have to say is that Sorry Boston you ain’t going to win NBA Championship this time. Also the best part is you are going to loose to Cavaliers in Eastern Conference Final.

I just witnessed the best game in Regular season

Lakers vs Spurs, Even though I am a die hard laker fan, I have to admit that without no doubt that Spurs are one of the best teams in NBA league. Yesterday was one of the best games I saw in this season. Also it doesn’t go that far down in my overall best games list. Normally when the Lakers loose I get Extreamly livid, but for some reason I didn’t feel that way after Lakers loosing by one point in last few seconds. I still don’t understand why Kobe didn’t take the shot instead of passing it to Ariza. But he was doing that all night. He was trusting his team mates so much where he gave away so many open looks to open players. Don’t get be wrong, I love Kobe’s unselfish playing rhythm but I don’t see any one better than Kobe to have the ball in hand during final seconds in a close game. Both teams were shooting above 55% not because of bad defense but simply it was better offense. Yet I still think there were places that Lakers could have bump up the intensity of the defense.

Not happy with the Lakers trade…

I have no idea why would Laker do something stupid when the team momentum was high as it has ever been is past two three years. Also they were in a wining streak and one of the main reason that Lakers to win was the depth of the team. Right now Lakers are 7-6 and last four winning games Lakers bench outscored their opponent’s bench with a huge margin. Simply because they had players like Brian Cook, and Maurice Evans After listening to Kobe on the other day I realized that he also doesn’t agree with the trade.. I am sure there will be a huge impact on the Laker bench also this will add more load on Kobe.

Who says Kobe is not popular….

I am a big time Kobe fan, so don’t take my work but read this Kobe Bryant has Top-Selling Jersey in China.

China has the largest human population and Kobe’s jersey has become the best selling jersey in China. If you have forgotten NBA has a Chinese player Yaomeing yet Kobe it the famous. So you do the math,,,,

Lakers, I dont know if i can take it any more….

When lakers started their 2006/07 series, They were the most surprising team. They beat Spurs, Dallas and month or two ago they were 30/13 winning record. But then Lakers got hit by multiple injuries. Anyway forget about injuries they are part of the NBA. Lakers six in a row twice include the one they just finish with Denver.

After watching the first quarter I thought lakers had some great ball movement with the Luke and Odem coming back from injuries. Everything was good in the first quarter but that was it, ever since until the game finish they were going down hill…

I am also kind of not happy the way that Kobe is playing. I like his new approch towards to the game more assists reduce the amount of the shots he take in game night.. but sometimes Kobe has to turn on his game and take over things to his hand. I didn’t see that happening for last few games.

Lakers

Kobe is back and Lakers are doing great…

For KOBE haters, Wait till he becomes the MVP, yeap I said it, he is going to be the MVP for sure….

Lakers….what happen…?

Lakers had a great chance to win, but I guess not having much experience, wrapped up the story behalf of lakers for this season. But I think Lakers had a great season….
