What was up Matt Barnes ass today? Kobe kept his composure and Barnes kept at him. What an idiot. I liked how Kobe didn't flinch when Barnes faked a direct throw at Kobe's face. Kobe didn't even blink! Barnes should've been ejected for that stupid move.Wait, now I know why Barnes was so upset. Kobe had 34 points vs his (cough) 10.

On a day where Laker fans didn't know what team would show up to play the Orlando Magic, seeing Artest's Rodman-like new hairdo was a sign of hope and maybe his attempt to spark up team defense after losing their last two games. His new hair look had the word "defense" dyed in three different languages, Hebrew, Japanese and Hindi. See photo collage of past Artest looks below.

Since I can remember I've always had Sports Illustrated magazines lying around and to this day I wish I would've kept the Laker SI covers for framing. I own several current issues that our in frames now but I would've had a massive collection if I wasn't so naive and young back in the day. So, since it would cost me an arm and a leg to purchase the Laker covers that I've lost throughout the years

Usually I write about the players and how well or bad they played the previous night. Now its time to pay my respects to the one man the Lakers saved their 14th spot for, Mr. Gary Vitti.When most NBA teams have 14 players on their rosters to cap out their talent, the Los Angeles Lakers have only 13. Why would the champs not fill their 14th spot? Well, to have the best training staff in the league
