My Lakers kicked off our title defense Tuesday Night on the opening night of the season. But before our game we recieved our championship rings and lifted our 15th Championship banner. At the ceremony we had past Laker great champions such as "Mr. Clutch" Jerry West, James Worthy, Rick Fox and the great Magic Johnson. We had a seperate special presentation for the inventer of Phils famous triangle offense, Tex Winter before the 4th qt. We were the second of TNTs double header. We defeated the other LA team 99-92 but believe me it wasnt that close as we went on cruise for a while before turning it back on to begin the 4th. Kobe led the way with 33pts 8reb 3ast and 4stl. Big Bynum stepped up to be his Robin as Pau was out with an injury. Drew had 26pts and 13reb and played 38min. In his debut with us Ron Artest had 10pts 5reb and 4ast and LO was big in starting for Gasol, 16pts 13reb 5ast and 2blk. The Clipps were led by Eric Gordons 21pts and Kamans 14reb with 18pts.

In the first game Boston came back on the Cavs in Cleveland to ruin LeBron and Shaqs debut. The score was 95-89, The C's were led by Paul Pierces 23pts and 11reb. In his return KG had 13pts 10reb and new comer Rasheed Wallace added 12pts and 3reb in 24min off the bench. LeBron had 38pts 8ast 4blk and 5tos and although he made 10 of his 13 fts he missed 2 in the clutch. In his debut Shaq recorded 10&10 in pts and reb.

JJ Barea had 13pts 4ast and 6reb off the bench. The Wizards where led by their leader who has only played in 15 games in the past two years Gilbert Arenas.
