What do you think about the Laker team now?

I don't think you have to do things for money anymore. Correct.

What's up? Laker fans? Lakers take game one. You're listening to the Laker

teams start out game one without their leading scorer. And you could see the struggles that

Houston had on the offensive end as a result. And only scoring 98 points, Lakers win 107

I think he was 25, 26 on free throws.
