Yeah. No kidding. I spent 50 bucks on beers at the game + left work early + parking + $160 ticket to see this? meh.

I've got a nice new rag for my kitchen though. Its yellow and says "opening night 2008" on it.

shit, how much are beers there and/or how many did you have? That's why you prefunk before the game, so you can $$ on beers :ohno:

9 bucks for a coors light. 10.75 for a hef. I had 5 or 6 beers, didn't count how many....got to the game about 70 min before tipoff and just chilled, watched shootaround and chatted it up. Couldn't prefunk, I wanted to avoid as many laker fans as possible so I just went there, went to my seat and just went to the closest beer vendor and to the bathroom. halftime, I just chilled at my seats. I had some friends that were at the game, but they were up in the skyboxes and got there late, per usual for laker fans (although people were actually there on time for the most part)
 
well now I just feel like an asshole....evidently you arent all bad Xericx :cheers:

So if I PM you my address and you will send it? :)
 
nah, that would take too much effort. just disregard the white powder on the envelope. :dancingpenguin:

j/k. dude, i've done this alot with my old lakers gear. i'll never wear the shirt...if the game turned out well, maybe I would have kept it as a memento, but it was embarassing so fuck it.

Definitely. I knew that would be the most important one of the game.
 
I'm surprised by how much longer Bynum's arms are than GO's. GO is jumping higher, but they are both touching the ball equally.

Really? I actually remember looking that up recently when somebody said the opposite and I swore it said Oden had the longer wingspan....maybe i read two different measurements or total bunk info
 
One thing I forgot to mention about being at Staples. In the merchandise store, they were selling Andrew Bynum Finals jerseys, lol! You know, with that Finals logo on it. I thought that was hilarious.

Oden:
Standing Reach = 9'4"
Wingspan = 7'4.25"
Vertical = 34"

Bynum:
Standing Reach = 9'4"
Wingspan = 7'6"
Vertical = 33"

[last time they were officially measure...pre-knee surgery/rehab]
 
^sweet thanks...and Bynum and his trainer claim he added an inch to his vert this summer...along with growing an inch taller :cheers:

I think I read or heard an Oden quote within the last month saying he's grown taller too. I'll try and find it, unless someone else recalls reading that too. To my eyes, over the TV, Oden looks a little taller and larger than Bynum. Maybe it's more equal in person?
