Lakers @ Warriors

A word before the game
Tonight we bring you the voice of many... we're at a viewing party. Pot luck of fine Italian foods, wine and beer. It may get rowdy, we may even forget to write anything at all. We watched the first of the back to backs on mute because who cares. We're definitely playing the Forum Blue Drinking Game. And heeeeeeere we go!


Tip Off
Luke, LO, KB, Drew, D.Fish


1st Quarter
11:30 We let em score on us already?

10:28 Luke dropped it like it was hot... not a good thing when it happens twice.

9:34 There are maybe 14 people here but we may as well be in the arena... we've already had beers dropped from edge of seat screaming/jumping. Not a GSW fan in sight!

5:37 Goddamnit!

Please note the time: this is how far we've made it without having to hear about the summer of discontent. ESPN > TNT, though not by much.

5:24 Kobe sucks? (Jealous much Oakland?)

3:33 Every time Drew throws it down everyone stands up for a round of applause. We have no idea why but it's fun.

Helzberg diamonds... kind of awesome.

2:31 MISS

1:03 Lamar, we reeeeeeeeally wish you wouldn't.

54.3 Jordan, we're always thankful you did.

6.2 Are Warriors fans aware that they look like a giant McDonald's camp out with those shirts on?

28-17 Lakers
And now for the obligatory lame-ass interview with the coach...


2nd Quarter
9:31 This is how you play a back to back. Holla for that!

Send Richard Jefferson to All Stars!

6:48 Tender Ronny... he's our only love.

4:18 Luke we also wish you wouldn't - though not as much as LO cause sometimes yours go in.

Oh snap, Walton made BOTH free throws.

3:05 Left handed but he shoulda gone right, sorry Golden State

Hey there's Mihms. He's still with the Laker's?
We only bring him up because it's funny to say "Mihms" like we're background on that "This is why I'm hott" track.

2:53 Reason #947498298u to hate on the announcing tonight "Why does he call Luke by his first name and Bynum by his last name?" The better question is "Why are we being forced to listen to him calling Luke by his first name and Bynum by his last name?" Lose the player mic's. Seriously.

1:19 SHOTS! Courtesy of Drew.

Baron Davis such a talented player... so strong... aaaaaaand a miss.

54-47 Lakers


Halftime
We don't care what happens right now it's dessert time here. Baked Alaska. Look it up and eat your heart out boys.


3rd Quarter
11:53 Futbol!

9:56 Say what LO?

8:33 That just got a collective "awww shit" grumble from the room.

7:57 Walton may not be too incredibly dependable these days but you do actually have to guard him or he'll pull shit like that on ya.

Maaaaan, this is like being on a teeter-totter/sea-saw.

6:34 Have a 5th and a seat Mr. Davis.

4:48 Pimp down, beer on my head, Luke at the line (he's doing well there tonight).

2:27 Drew is officially fierce.

The "Oh Christmas Tree" commercial just made for some wet seats in the house. That was downright shout-out-loud-wtf-hilarious. Play it again!

1:03 Compare that one from LO to...

30.8 (or something like that) ... that one from J.Far

0.0 LO must have heard us talkin' smack cause he made up for it

85-83 Lakers!
Enter technical difficulties with the idiotic interviews.


4th Quarter
10:48 All we need Lamar to do - feed.

9:39 What did you do Radman?

9:17 Farmar drops it in even when he looks like he might be falling over.

7:57 Kobe seems to be having um, crotch problems.

7:37 Now Ronny is down, he just recovered from a head injury. Ugh.

5:53 YEEEEEEEAAAAAH! D.Fish! (that almost sounds like de-fense)

3:29 Luke make the shots... ... ... wait for it... ... ... thank you :)

We don't wanna speak out of place but the Warriors are letting us trample them with a Kobe Brynt who's moving as well as Shaq.

2:38 Jackson manages to not pull a Bynum, but you can see he really wants to.

Tommy John surgery - there's a girl one of us used to know who talked every day about how she had Tommy John surgery. I can tell you every last detail of it if you wish. Let's have a shot to celebrate not having to know her anymore.

1:54 We don't like our games tied at this point.

1:27 This is why we love Derek Fisher.

16.7 ARE YOU KIDDING?

can't... type... must... watch...

6.1 PLEASE LAMAR PLEASE

108-106 Warriors? <-- unbelievable, simply unbelievable.


Final Comments
We had this one in the bag. In the bag, and then our poorly packed sack lunch fell out of the bottom. Thanks for nothing mom! This whole room seems to agree though, this loss felt better than last night's win.

The Trade Him Now award of the night: Lamar Odom. He may have played an okay game tonight, better than what he's been turning in lately but we're tired of having to bow/shake our heads in shame 3 out of every 4 times he has the ball in his hands. Why not just let Mihm play? Speaking of...

The "Hey there's that guy" award of the night: Chris Mihm. What position does he play? LBW (left bench warmer) is not an official position in the NBA rule book so we're really asking for an answer on this one. He would have gotten the Trade Him Now award except how the hell do you trade the towel boy?

The If We're Gonna Keep Depending on Lamar Odom We May As Well Play This Guy award of the night: Javaris Crittenton and Coby Karl can share tonight.

Our player of the night: Johnny Walker Black for keeping us entertained all night long. We're certain that had Mr. Black actually gotten some minutes tonight he would have brought it home for us.
