So Da Pistons beat Da Lakers….
What’s Going on World?
John W. Davis here. The vaunted Los Angeles Lakers are no longer undefeated courtesy of a few Bench Babies, Arron Afflalo and Killa Kwam Kwam Brown. Ha! Isn’t that lovely Minnesota LA Laker fans. A UCLA Product and a former Laker who was cast out of the Kingdom of Kobe. WHEW!!!!
Why am I giving props to Afflalo and Brown, first because what they did last night, was not to be 100% expected. They aren’t a first ballot Hall of Famer like AI, nor are they perennial All-Stars like Rip and Sheed, and they definitely don’t have and probably never will have a gold medal like Tayshaun Prince. (Although, if Afflalo keeps that defense up, he could get an US National team invite like Bruce Bowen and Shane Battier did.)
They are the unsung heroes, so I’m singing their song from the mountain tops. Praises for Afflalo and Brown.
I am very proud of this team. I just want to point out our key to victory stats. It’s the 29 of 34 from the free throw line. If we continue to make 25+ free throws shooting at 85%. PSSHHHH!!!! The rest of the league better watch the heck out!
CHECK OUT SOME HIGHLIGHTS FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE!
Peace,
John W. Davis

I know right! Defense wins championships! Too bad Young Hyphy Amir didnt get to play…
I hope this is not the start of a trend especially since McDyess is probably coming back soon.

A great game for sure.
AI was great, Kwame was great, and Sheed was great. If Rip can get it going, oh man….
It was tough not seeing Amir or Bynum.
I do like the idea of starting Kwame, at least for now. With a AI, Rip, Tay, and Amir lineup….well that’s a really skinny lineup. Putting Kwame in allows Sheed to do his thing as PF. it reminds me of the KG-Perkins duo in Boston and that seemed to work last year.

Kwame started because LA had two 7′0 starters.
Giving him the go the night before at Golden State was all in the strategy of beating the Lakers.
