PBP thread (fill-in for VF21) @ Lakers

[6th]

VF has offered her regrets that she is unavailable to do the pbp this evening. She had an offer for a free dinner at Red Lobster. She loves us, but we are talking about lobster here...something she does not get often.

So, we are looking for people to help fill in for her. I can help, but no way can I type for an entire game. My hands will scream at me in pain if I try typing that long.

[6th]

Sorry, but sometimes my arthritis is painful in my hands, so they need a break.

FYI>>>

Kings lead 53-43 with 3:30 left in the 1st half

 

[6th]

Evans not having a good game, but he sinks a 3. Maybe that will help his confidence.

Kenny with nice jump hook

Kings lead 61-45

no much defense in this game by either team, although the Kings D has been a little better. A lot of the Laker score is due to missing shots more than the Kings D...IMHO

There is a time out with about 2 min left in the half

Luke is at the line and makes both FT's

Bibby to Cat to Kenny for 2

Mihm is fouled by Skinner

Another foul inside against the Kings, but not sure who called against

Mihm makes 1 of 2

He goes to the line with 5 sec left in the 1st half

 

[6th]

House in for Bibby

I just wanted to say you're doing a great job filling in 6th! I know it must be hard trying to do this with your arthritis and the fact that the game is so depressing. Thanks for doing the best you can!

 

[6th]

Well this is where the Kings refusal to play defense comes back and bites them on the posterior. They are missing jump shot after jump shot.

The Kings 19 pt lead has been whittled to 5

Kings lead 96-91 with just under 9 min

 

[6th]

House misses jumper and Kenny misses a put back jam

Lakers ball after a steal in the lane...the Lakers are the players playing with great hustle.

Bibby comes up with a loose ball in the lane and sends the ball down court ahead to CW who slams it home.

Kings back up by 7

VF has offered her regrets that she is unavailable to do the pbp this evening. She had an offer for a free dinner at Red Lobster. She loves us, but we are talking about lobster here...something she does not get often.

So, we are looking for people to help fill in for her. I can help, but no way can I type for an entire game. My hands will scream at me in pain if I try typing that long.

Oh, now I see how she is....choosing lobster over us.

By the way 6th, you are doing great. Wish I could help but I'm not very good at things like this.

[6th]

Oh, now I see how she is....choosing lobster over us.

By the way 6th, you are doing great. Wish I could help but I'm not very good at things like this.

Hey, I would choose free lobster over us....and I am part of the us.

 

[6th]

Lakers trying to crawl back in this. Kings refuse to put the game away. Well, hey, they love giving us heart attacks.
