Back in the Series
After an embarrassing Game 1 home loss, the T-Wolves came back tonight to beat the Lakers by 18 points in Game 2 to avoid the prospect of going back to LA down 2-0. The demolition was especially helpful because, as I’ve been saying all along, the Wolves’ best hope in the series is if the Lakers implode and start fighting among themselves. Shaq has two days to rip Payton to the papers, or vice versa, and KG and Co. will be home free.
In other news, Gary Payton and Wally Szczerbiak will be getting married in Massachusetts as soon as the series is over.
I have it on good authority they'll be naming their first child Gary Payton Jr. III.
