I was sincerely pulling for Robert Sacre to have a good game in his first start in place of the injured Dwight Howard… mostly because I wanted the Lakers to win, because that just would’ve been funny. Unfortunately, that’s not what happened. Sacre did score 10 points, but, as the Lakers got blown out 125-112, he grabbed just three rebounds in 27 minutes and played Washington General to James Harden’s Harlem Globetrotter. Harden, who hung 31 on the Lakers, made a third-quarter statement by going up high and mashing in the seven-foot Sacre’s mug…
…then put the cherry on top of Houston’s big victory by going down low and dishing the rock right through Robert’s wickets. A guy steps in fresh out of the D-League and you’re just gonna do him like that, James? Cold. Real cold.
What’s the deal with that celebration, though? Excuse the potty talk, but it looked to me like Harden was taking a pretend dump on the floor. Was he suggesting that he’d just taken a dump on Robert Sacre? If so… I’m not sure how I feel about that.

Robert Sacre is a GREAT reserve. Let’s not for get he is Very green yet. I see Sacre coming around sooner than later IF given the chance! Our team has Talant. I also to kill two birds w/ one stone must say I think the Lakers are Fine. They just need to gel… Yes I know LA cant wait one year, but guess what…. You are going to have Too. D’ Antoni is a Great coach for the Lakers. No Larry Brown “Hint, Hint” but the best option there “rather than Shaw”. ANYHOW… I am going to support MY team “LAKERS” and push for the best.
