More PSA than pregame report
But just to let everyone know, the Lakers will be donating $100,000 in relief of the 2008 Wildlife fires. Also, the proceeds from the Staples Center in-arena silent auctions over the duration of the next six November games (tonight's included) will accompany this donation. Plus, those in attendance during tonight's game can- for a minimum five dollar donation- head down to the court after the action and get some face time and autographs with the Laker Girls. All for a good cause, the latter two sources being funneled through the Lakers Youth Foundation. For information about tonight's Laker Girl offering, go to the concourse level behind section 112.
Also, an exchange between a writer and Phil Jackson in regards to Vlad Radmanovic's starting status:
In other words, Vlad isn't friends with BK.
AK
Obviously his not wanting to talk about it means that there is something to talk about. Right?
This gives me hope. I'd rather see Ariza out there. Vlad occasionally shoots well. But I don't think he is Los Angeles Lakers starting material. Maybe he'd be more dynamic coming in off the bench : )
Don't talk about it PJ, just do it!!
GOOoooOOO LAKERS!!!

Bravo to Phil!!
He is finally learning how to avoid the questions of the mischief making media.
.............Now if we could just get rid of Luke Walton our championship hopes would go through the roof!

That's great news from the Lakers, many victims do not have fire insurance. That will help a lot in rentals.
