Lakers v Bucks 12.21.2010

Denver misses Brandon Jennings:
...

I don't believe in God. Not even a Spinozan logical God as the first cause of all causes. But I still pray that Lamar Odom becomes an All-Star. I forgive you for the '08 finals. I realize that you and Luke were the only ones who had Kobe's back in the pre-Gasol medieval times. 

Whatever team you play on is ridiculously better with you ont he floor. You will never be appreciated so I'm renouncing my membership with the Brights and asking 'Hov to get you int he All-Star game. 

And I swear that I wrote all of this before seeing that back-to-the-basket-behind-the-back-beauty to art model Artest. 

...

Imagine if Kobe suddenly aged 15 years and had to play against the Bucks' 2s today. He'd still drop 30 on 46% and hit the game winner. Simply gorgeous. Kobe used every inch of his frame and moved his body in space in exactly the right way to create enough leverage and/or balance to loft a shot into the rim. The mechanics of his movement could even put '98 Airness to shame. 

How can dominance be so quiet?

On an unrelated note, I fully expect to see Bogut on Twitter again complaining about Kobe's travel + three point play. It only seems to happen against Bogut. 

...

In my last post, I dicussed the stellar adj. +/- of Ilyasova and how if the Bucks knew what was good for them and listened to Denver, they would give Ersan some more burn. Well, Scott Skiles found my post while doing an unrelated search for pornography involving girls in Denver drinking Foster's beer and today the Lakers paid. 

His focused mug works way better than Bogut's oh-my-god-i'm-seeing-double-what-happened-last-night-at-Outback face. 
...

'Drew on the bench is actually an optimal configuration but theoretically it won't be radically different in terms of the Maverick's flexibility in choosing lineups. We saw this LO-Bynum-Kobe lineup early in '010 and its pleasing in short spurts, especially if say Pau Gasol was being bullied by Aussie and Turkish big men. 

Matt Barnes had a rare off-night too. I was begging for more Luke/Artest. Perhaps it was the trauma of being called on Twitter by someone with the word "deepthroat" in her Twitter handle. 

...

Is it okay to bring up that bullshit about the Lakers being soft? Or do the printing presses of Los Angeles still run on hyperbole?

Whatever, we just got Boykinsed.
