“I came home and he said ‘Daddy, LeBron blocked your shot!’ And I said, ‘B, that was a goaltend.’ He started laughing.’’
Records are records. I don’t give a s**t about records. I wasn’t happy with our defensive effort, our defensive rotations. Those were not good. But what do I care about their records?
Kobe hits a milestone
“With the victory Monday over the Warriors, Kobe Bryant tied Magic Johnson for the second-most wins by a player in Lakers franchise history.”
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - 743 wins
Kobe Bryant - 670 wins
Magic Johnson - 670 wins
Michael Cooper - 636 wins
James Worthy - 622 wins
It’s hard to comment on anything another organization does because you don’t know the why or how. Now multiply that by 10 with the Clippers.
Lucky number 7
That would be the number of Kobe game winners this season. Kobe has as many game winners as the Nets do wins.
From Peter May:
In between the Super Bowl and the NBA All-Star Game, you may have missed the following: Antoine Walker, who hasn’t appeared in an NBA game in almost two years, signed to play in Puerto Rico.
According to reports coming out of the island, Walker’s deal with the Guaynabo Mets is for one month, guaranteed, as they want to see what kind of shape he’s in. He is reportedly being paid $7,000 a week. Another former NBA player, Marcus Fizer, also joined the Mets at the same time. They started the season 4-0 according to the standings posted on Latinbasket.com.
I hope so,” said Anthony about Iverson again playing in the NBA. “I don’t think as far as his game he’s done. But I really don’t know. I really don’t know where his mind is right now. I’m pretty sure he’s not thinking about basketball right now.
