What do you think about the Laker team now?

You follow the box scores of the games every day?

Just the Lakers.

You're kidding.

That is really a compliment.

I was pleased to see you smile at the top bar show

rest of these playoffs since they're eliminated. I thought he was tremendous in that series. And I'd just

love to hear your perspective of how that series ended. Yeah, I thought Yokic played exceptional.
