That one year the Lakers sucked with Kobe, the second half of the season was a ghost town at Staples. Brokers and scalpers couldnt give Laker tix away. LA is as frontrunner a town as you will find anywhere in the world. as it is right now Lakers games arent even sold out. They used to have the best road attendance of any team in the league, not sure theyre in the top 10 now. Clippers actually have that distinction right now, but that might be an anomaly. That obviously just means people in other cities want to see the guys on the team,but thats just it lakers are shit. Everyone has seen Kobe for the past 15 years so what is the draw? Beating the lakers at home isnt even a big deal now either, everyone does it pretty much.

Take a break from a moonlight jog on the beach and take a trip up to Staple when LA is playing New Orleans at the end of next month. Or better yet versus San Antonio in late April if LA is already eliminated from the play offs.

Dont come back here with announced attendance figures either like some lame ass. Those numbers mean shit. Brokers buy up 20-30% of all tickets so those count as sales int hose numbers. If you want to know the 'real' truth call Barry or Stub Hub and ask them how many tickets they have left over in those games. Or just go yourself and count the people dressed as empty seats.

People root for the lakers and cheer as long as they win. Flags disappear and people take down their banners once LA is done. Hell some people just rolled down their windows last year and let them fly away after what happened against Dallas.
You should've started this post out with...."there was a soft knock at the door....."
