Another game and another loss for
our Lakers however this one was
far easier to swallow. Bryant scored
21 points, Jordan Hill, 13. Jeremy Lin
had 17 points and nine assists.
Wesley Johnson (starting forward)
0-for-5 in the first half, made a 3
on his first shot of the third quarter
and Hill put the Lakers ahead 62-61
on a layup with 10:01 left in the period
after they trailed by 15 points with
less than 4 minutes to go in the first.
Bryant helped Chris Paul to his feet
after knocking him down in the second quarter.
The Lakers Band made a rare appearance
on the court to play the National Anthem.
Team president Jeanie Buss high-fived
each of them as they walked off.
The Clippers have never won an NBA
Championship. Lakers coach Byron Scott
alluded to that when one asked Scott if he
considers the hallway neighbors a rivalry
ahead of their game at Staples Center.
He replied that he really did not fear them
to become a rivalry yet as he still feels
the biggest rivalry to be the Boston Celtics.
They have 17 banners & we have 16.
Still, our 3rd. game attempt ended at a
loss with the score reading: 118-111.
Maybe next game we'll have better luck.
