Lakers infiltrator here. Methinks you guys have the misfortune of playing us right after we’ve had our lunch handed to us by good teams, bad teams, the coaches, the press, the fans and bloggers. Boom!

Almost forgot, Rip and I also share the same birthday (although you should be able to tell that I’m a lot older).

Back when I worked at IBM in the very very first days of the IBM PC I used to use Tigers for my passwords (you had to change them monthly). My first password was Trammel, second Whitaker. In basketball season I started using Pistons, first was Thomas (never used Tripuka for obvious reasons). The upshot of this is some variation on Rip’s name is littered all over the Internet as my password to a number of sites (I still have to use Stackhouse occasionally, then Ben Wallace). So it hurts me to see Rip playing so poorly. But a jump shooter who misses his jump shots flatly hurts his team. Raja Bell was supposed to be Rip’s man on that play last night. Although it also should have been a turnover, Rip was the one who should have gotten that loose ball way back in game one against New Jersey. If the team lacks mental toughness and the ability to finish out games, where is the first place we should look? This saddens me, but that’s life.
