Our Lakers

Take that No Cal. Drove by Oracle Arena yesterday and scoffed in its direction as I recalled games 5 and 7.

Warriors radio guys were confirming they were still little brother to So Cal before the game was played.

The young Lakers ran them out of the Forum*

Lakers have looked good. Luke Walton can coach. Some Kobe hate coming out of it but I think Byron Scott was their biggest problem last year.

People likely don't want to admit it but having someone like Kobe around for the young players learning what it takes to be a professional and how to carry yourself, prepare, etc. can't have anything but a positive effect in the long-term. When you combine that with someone like Luke Walton who can come in and bring all the positive parts of team, sharing, etc. that Kobe can't necessarily talk about in recent years is huge.

The Lakers are fun to watch play and you can see glimpses ... they'll be better than not sooner rather than later

The Lakers obviously lucked into this but they actually did the rebuilding process perfectly. Kobe kept the seats filled and they added 3 high lottery picks. If I didn't know Jim Buss was incompetent I'd call him a genius.

And now, like the Lakers have done forever, they can add the superstar or two they need to win titles. I've seen this movie a few times.

That necklace is probably worth more than my house.
