Lakers News and Updates #3 (First Preseason Game)

  Welcome back today we will discuss the Lakers first preseason. Everyone was looking forward to Hibbert, D'Angelo, Randle, and Kobe's preformence on the first preseason game. They faced the Utah Jazz in Hawaii at the Sheriff Center. I excepted the Lakers t have a blow out victory against the Jazz. But it was the opposite today. The final score was 90 to 71. In the first half the Lakers were executing on the offensive end and defensive end. At the end of the half, they ended at a tie score of 18 each. But, the tables turned at the begging of the third end. The Jazz went on a 11 to 2 run after the Lakers were up by seven. As the game progressed, the score of the Jazz went up as the Lakers score slowly grew minute by minute. Towards the end they had a chance to win the game but, they didn't get the shots they needed to win the game and get the "W." As all the fans of Hawaii wanted to see Kobe play the entire game, they didn't get the show they wanted. Kobe only played for 12 minutes the entire game. I felt the staff should have let him play for ten to five more minutes towards the end of the game. But it was only the first preseason game, it's not that important as a regular season game. Next game will be on Tuesday against the Jazz agin in Hawaii at the same place. Next week I will talk about the updates of the Lakers games next week. Until next time, I am out peace.
