Kobe, Ni Hao Ma?

Wo Hen Hao, Ni Nuh? 

Loose translation..in China, Kobe is God.  OK, maybe not God, but they sure do treat him like royalty over there.   Basketball has gained so many fans in China, and now Kobe fans can rejoice.  Their superstar Kobe Bryant has agreed to write a blog for the Chinese website at SINA.com.    Why is Kobe so popular in China?  Because he is a martial arts master on his spare time.  Well, no, but we've all seen him on the court.  Anyone know how to say Mamba in Mandarin?

Loving my Lakers!

Best hustle play of the year. 

(You have to click on the video and watch it in HD to do it justice)



Trevor Ariza, will you marry me?  (hee.)

Trevor THE Sixth man

Favorite play tonight. Stop, pivot, turn around fadeaway jumper over two defenders. If you watch the replay (wish I had video to share), the rest of the floor stops for those split few seconds. They all stand there just staring at what Trev's about to pull off. My man. Making contributions where it counts. Lakers with another win destroy the Nets tonight.

Lakers..Unstoppable!



Player of the game: Trevor Ariza, slasher, ghost, shadow, mr. energy deserves more press time!  Watch out now!  He's Arizin'!  I should really TM that.  =)   

I think tonight's game is going to be a little tough, since Lakers are traveling and playing back to back.  Man, I still get more excited when the second unit comes out to play, yeah probably because I'm biased to root on Trev.  Go Lakers!

Define: Posterize

a Basketball term meaning to embarrass some one usually while slamming the ball over them. It refers to the guy whos being dunked on in basketball posters.



For example, watch as super-Ariza flies by the opponents.  Up, up, and away! 

Forget thunder, they just got reign/"rained" on!

Trevor Ariza



I can't help but smile when I think of the potential Ariza has to grow this year as a Laker.    Yes, I'm excited for this season... only a few more weeks away!
