Lakers blowout Blazers!
When Jason Kapono came out of a airplane from Charlotte Lakers players greeted him and took him to pratice. Here is a conversation from the players:
Jason Kapono:"I heard you guys are in a shooting drought."
Kyle Korver:"Yeah, all of a sudden its tough to sink a shot."
JK:"Dont worry I can fix that."
And so the next day the Lakers played the Trailblazers. During the game Kobe was on fire and it seemed that Jason Kapono wouldnt be able to show his stuff.As soon as Kobe was out though he fired up shots. He caught fire shooting 4-9 from downtown and making all 3 of his freethrows. After that Kyle Korver also caught fire and shot 4-6 from downtown. Glen Rice went 1-2 from downtown as the Lakers won 144-112.
Kobe tossed in 39 points and Brand had 16 points and 10 rebounds. Josh Smith had 20 points and 3 blocks.Jahidi White went for 14 boards and 7 points.New Laker Melivn Ely had 5 points and 3 rebounds.
