Lakers coach Phil Jackson wanted to send his thanks to the Kings for their efforts last night. Actually, he's planning on sending something different.
Before the game, LA Times Lakers beat writer Mike Bresnahan asked Jackson if he called "Reggie" - as in Kings coach Reggie Theus - to show his appreciation.
"Reggie?" Jackson asked confused.
"Theus," Bresnahan answered.
"Oh, no," Jackson replied. "Ron Artest is the one everybody is going to send a birthday cake to."
