^^February 1st 2010, Bryant had 44pts to become the Lakers all time scorer. It was the same game that the Lakers lost to Grizzlies, then this happened.
At the same time, Lakers Coach Phil Jackson thought Bryant was distracted by trying to break the record.
"At halftime, I told the guys he's forcing the action and let's get him over the hump so we can start playing team ball out there," Jackson said. "But it didn't seem like we ever did."
I'm actually glad Melo is OK, I like his playing style. At the time it happened, it was hard to judge whether he was faking it or not. However, it did prove that it was evidently serious and he needed some medical attention. It's a shame his team mates couldn't call a time out (J.R Smith, I'm looking at you), not to mention the fans booing. I think fans always forget that besides socail status, athletes are humans like them. Lines need to be drawn, especially when it comes to injury. I guess Melo's Wifey must have been really tripped out when all that was going on.
Worse things have happened in sports though. One time they were taking a player off the pitch after he apparently collapsed. The medics dropped him when carrying him on the stretcher. The player died later, though not related to the fall to the stretcher.
That Raptor/cheerleader video. Kind of gives a new meaning to a girl looking good enough to eat. The crowd don't seem the slightest bit impressed by that one though. I liked it. I think the Milwaukee team should make a Buck eat a cheerleader, now that would be bizzare
This is a fan designed shoe Bryant was to wear for the game today vs Portland. I did design a pair for my records although the contest was exclusive to L.A residents. In case you're wondering about the colors, remember Lakers wear white on Sundays............& public holidays (I think).
Holy crap, how about Uconn Huskies going 78-0?? Isn't that something........I mean, people are already saying its a ladies team so, it doesn't matter. I think back to back undefeated seasons is an awesome sports achievement.
Waited so long for a L. Playoffs better display a better team than that.
