Lakers now have 6 days in which to splash around and relax while the Suns shine their rays and worry over the upcoming games that will be played in the playoffs. With Steve Nash in Phoenix tending to his swollen eye (had 6 stitches taken) and no, the Suns are not up to the speed of the Spurs or the Mavericks either. So now we will see what is looming ahead (and on home court at that) for our next game scheduled for play on Monday. Andrew Bynum will be able now to get some rest for his torn meniscus knee. Last Mondays' game with the Utah Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan up on his feet claiming our Kobe Bryant is likened to "Miss America" in that he seems to get what so ever it is he wants.Interesting comparison? In game 4 of the Western Conference semifinal series at Energy Solutions arena the drama unfolded as our Laker team won 111-96 playing Utah. Kobe Bryant seemed to control the flow of the entire game with Derek Fisher making his shots to the boo's in the poor mannered Utah crowd. They evidently were disgruntled for their former player going back to L.A. So Derek dug in his heals and proved to one and all what a great man he is. The change in teams happened as you recall in order for his daughter to receive better medical care when Dr's. diagnosed her having cancer of the eye. Some Utah fans were so discourteous as to be overheated, rowdy and pathetic. Pau Gasol has now been dubbed Mr. reliable and that he is with his 7 ft. stature.He makes the game of basketball seem like a back yard lark almost. He has such a quiet style and gets the ball inside the hoop so often when it is sliding around and looking as if it refuses to fall. We rely on our Pau quite a lot! Recovering now for a few days reprieve, we soon tackle the Phoenix Suns who resemble the Jazz in their speed and savy at point guard. So.. ready, set, go! Babs Wells
