Why is Shannon Brown shooting better? Of coarse it has a lot to do with the fact that he worked his butt off, although it seems he had a star give him top notch instruction on ball handling and decision making. Without a doubt you might have already guessed who it was. Quick, Interesting article, check it out.

Silver Screen and Roll How I felt when the Lakers repeated...

So most of you have probably seen this, but for boredom's sake I'll post it anyway.

It's a viral video about some guy tripping on drugs (insists he wasn't, but judge for yourself), sees a double rainbow, and doesn't know how to act. 

Strangely my reaction to the Lakers back to back championship wasn't much different.

Check it!!

 



Whoa, That's a full championship all the whey. Double championship, omg! It's a double championship all the whey.

Whoa, it's so intense. Whoooa man. Ah, whah, whoa, WHOAA HO HO  OH MY GOD! Oh my gohahahad, ho ho my

god! Woooo, aho ho wow! wooo yea! Omg, look at that, it's starting to look like a triple championship, omg it's full on

double championship all the whey across the skyy, omg, omg, ah god... what does this mean? Ahhhh, omg. Ahhhh, oh god,

 it's soo bright, omg, it's soo bright and vivid. Ahh, ahh, ahh haha it's soo beautiful. ::starts sobbing::

 

Let's do it again next year baby!        

 

:{D (Yes that's a mustache. Noo, I don't really have one. Yes, it's a bit manly... Ok I'll have him shave before I post another smiley face)

Silver Screen and Roll Are the Lakers fit for a second championship?

I would like to think so, despite their performances of late (I.E. Heat and Charlotte). I was beginning to really doubt that the Lakers had the desire to win it again not because they didn't have the talent because we have seen that when they turn it on they are virtually unstoppable, but because they were failing to turn it on to begin with, to ignite the passion, and bring the energy. when I ultimately began to doubt the possibility of the second championship, a championship that is not only a testament to how great this team could be, how great the franchise is, and the fact that it would make for a great story due to Phil Jackson being the coach who has won all his championships in packs of Threes, I suddenly stumbled across, what I would consider, a great explanation from Robert Horry on the recent  sub par play of the Lakers.

 As can be seen below: 

 

It all sort of comes together, some of us have forgotten that the lakers have made it to two fully extended seasons back to back. Making it into the finals against the Celtics and coming back the next year to win it against The Magic. In between the seasons some players haven't seen rest, our two leading scorers, Kobe and Gasol  played for their countries. While Kobe only did so the summer of 2008 for the U.S.A. Gasol played both in the summer olympics and The Euros for Spain.

The Lakers are tired, no doubt about that, but I get the feeling that come playoff time they will crank it back up to Lakers basketball.
