Looks like LeBron is still playing against a bunch of raindeer wearing Lakers jerseys!  >:(

OMG, the Lakers are acting like a bunch of gilted GF's.  Tons of cheap shots and jabbering. 

I don't think the Lakers have actually beaten any really good teams yet.  The only team I can think of is the Jazz and they are not exactly playing solid this year.

The Lakers got dismembered badly last night. It's been a long time since they've had  a beat down like that. It's probably a good thing to knock them out of their complacency. There don't appear to be any real challengers out West, so the Lakers aren't used to playing a good team.

It is starting to look like Cleveland's off-season efforts have paid off. But it isn't clear if that's really enough to beat the Lakers or they just weren't prepared. One thing is certain, there is no obvious front-runner for the title.

LOL!  I guess some REAL fans got Lakers tickets for XMas presents!!!  Your typical "for the cameras" and "Hollywood" fans would never care enough or put in the effort to throw things on to the court.

I for one would NEVER throw away a free foam finger, I friggin paid 12 bucks for a Clippers one, you think for a second I would toss a Lakers one away?  On second thought...I must have been a bunch of rich-kid-fans causing the drama at Staples....

I am starting to think the West is getting pretty weak.  The Lakers are clearly the class of the WC but there is noboy to really challenge them.  The Celtics are clearly the class of the ENTIRE league and they have two solid teams in Orlando and the Cavs to challenge them and keep them sharp, IMO the Hawks and Suns are not for real and every other team in the EC is a waste of space.  I'm very disappointed in the Jazz and injuries have really derailed the up and comming Blazers.  I really don't know what to make of the Mavs, they could be as good as the Magic and Cavs or as "fake" as the Hawks.

It comes down to how do the stumbling Spurs and streaky Nuggets compared to the Magic and Cavs, with the Mavs being an X-Factor team.  Will those teams in the WC get it together to offer a legit comparison to the Magic and Cavs?  It does not seem that Lakers are playing all that well since their record and inflated defensive stats have been built upon very mediocre teams, clearly the Celtics are head and shoulders above the rest.

WOW I'd say the crowd's reaction was also another indictment of the LA education system.  You can't do an damage with a foam finger!  Duuuuhh!!!  Take a hint from Twins fans who pelted Chuck Knoblauch with coins and batteries.   Better yet, learn from the legendary Vikings incident and hit the ref with a whiskey bottle.

LeBron said after that game that something like a battery whizzed by his head during the foam finger revolt.

It is beyond me why the fans reacted like that anyway.

Kings got to play the Cavs, the Lakers, and the Nuggets all in a row this past week, at home. An overtime loss, a double-overtime loss, and a win in regulation were good signs the Kings are getting there.

But the average age of the Kings' starting lineup was young, young, young. It was 21.6 years old - the youngest ever for the team. Two rookies started, and a second year player in Donte Greene, who was hardly visable, let alone active on the court much, last year.

Rumor mill is active in SacTown. Trade thoughts up to the deadline are the Kings are interested in either Okefor or Dalembert. Trade bait from the Kings is the expiring contract of Kenny Thomas and also Andres Nocioni. To match those Kings' salaries, (about $16 million combined), another guy would probably have to be sent to Sacramento, though.

The sixers have been trying to trade Dalembert for close to a year now, if the Kings trade for him (since, he is bad and signed through next year) I'll think less of Petrie...he has the offensive skills of a drunk 1 legged hyena

I suppose I should have known WOW was at least smart enough to through something with some heft.

I take it you mean Dalembert, not Petrie.

Petrie is more often right about players. But after Webber got hurt, he went into a tailspin for a while. He looks to have righted himself this year.

Suppose you all may have noticed Petrie signed a three year extension yesterday to stay in Sactown. As a sign of the times, he will make 4 million to finish out this season and his new contract that kicks in next year calls for him to make 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4 million over the three years of the deal.

And he is happy with the deal!!!

Saw that about petrie, and the pay cut

in other news, many people are submitting plans for new kings stadiums these days - not sure if a new stadium gets built but the new mayor (formber NBA'er) is trying to save the team (it seems)
