[fakie]

thanks for the play by play, VF21

they seem to be doing pretty well.
i hate to have missed the first portion of the game becuase of ESPN, but it's all good now

 

[VF21]

You're most welcome, KingKong, and everyone else who has sent me PMs. I appreciate it and don't mind sharing at all.

The tribute to Vlade was moving; I cried.

I miss him but I still do not blame him OR the Kings for making the choices they made this summer.

I wish him well and am very happy to hear how much regard he still has for the Kings, the organization, the fans and the community. Vlade Divac is truly one of a kind.

GO KINGS!!!

 

[SacTownKid]

Beware!!!

Kings better not leave the 3-point shots open in the second half or this game can get out of hand very quick.

Put Otag in and next time Kobe goes to the line make him never want to go back again!!!

Other than that I expect a great second half from the Kings!!

 

[VF21]

Kings shooting 47.8; Lakers 38.3 from the field.

18 assists; 6 turnovers.

Boards fairly even.
