Giddyap!! Sunday's game was a lost cause for our Lakers. Tuesdays game? A complete turn around..What a neat game for spectators to watch! Right from the get-go it was easy to see, back on home court that our Lakers had it together. Kobe Bryant had his Dad in the audience (a coach in Japan), but he told the reporter that was doing a short interview with him that his son got his talent from his Mother!) Ron Artest had his head back to a norm. All the bench were able to play, not D.J. but with the score soaring in our favor, it was fun to see the bench get their day in the sun so to speak for awhile too. Another Kobe note to share with you is that the broken index finger he has been playing with all along is healed. The joint is a bother it seems however with some arthritis having settled in. Game 6 is Friday night in O.K. City. The winner of this series advances to play the winner of the Denver-Utah series. The Jazz lead the Nuggets 3-1. Hopeful Friday's game will look far more like last nights' game did, and not down in the hole again like last Sundays game was. We are rooting for you & do love that Tuesday score of 111-87!!
