LAKERS TRADE FOR GASOL

The greatest thing to happen since the invention of pants with pockets...

This has been the first good move that GM Mitch Kupchak has made since giving Devon George a contract extension. lol. yea right. Naw, since trading Shaq and keeping Kobe. Planning for the Lakers future that is. I know for a fact all Laker faithfuls are happy to hear about this news. See you guys at the Laker parade this summer....

The Los Angeles Lakers have acquired Memphis center Pau Gasol, league sources said Friday afternoon.
The Lakers will send center kwame Brown and rookie point guard Javaris Crittenton to Memphis in the trade, along with two future No. 1 picks.
It is possible the Lakers will re-sign free agent Aaron Mckie to send to Memphis to balance the contracts in the deal.
Gasol, a 7-footer, can play center for the Lakers until Andrew Bynum returns from a knee injury sometime in March. Then, Gasol, who is averaging 18.9 points and 8.8 rebounds, can slide over into the power forward spot. His passing and shooting skills are ideal to operate in the triangle offense. This move pushes the Lakers into championship contention.
For Memphis, Brown’s $9 million contract comes off the salary cap at the end of the season. Gasol has three years left and nearly $50 million left on his contract. He is averaging nearly 19 points and 8.8 rebounds for the Grizzlies

SERIOUSLY

The other day, the homies and myself went downstairs to eat. We stopped by this Dairy Queen afterwards. Out of nowhere tell me why this broad said i looked like Sean Kingston??? hahaha. We were like wtf?? Are you serious?? I didnt know my Jamaican roots were that noticeable.

This just shows how some people out here are just plain ignorant. Also how multiple individuals have said that Rich looks like Kobe Bryant, Amare Stoudamire, Tayshaun Prince and basically, every famous black athlete. I think this ties into the stereotype that all black people look alike. And how Fil-Ams, like myself, look like Sean Kingston. Lord-a-mercy!

IN THE BEGINNING...

..there was boredom. Thats why this blog was created. Due to having way too much free time on my hands. For those that dont know, ive been in the Philippines for a minute now chasing my "hoop" dreams. lol. Other than going to practices, working out, watching my boy Ryan "the energizer" Reyes' PBA games and making an occasional trip to the nearby mall to get a decent cut, we really dont do much out here. Eat, sleep, internet, sleep some more. Not like when the whole LA Showtime team was out here this past year. Due to boredom, this blog was created just to get my thoughts out there. Enjoy homos.
