With the off season in full swing and little news from Lakerland these past few days, I have comprised a list of the top ten things to do while waiting for the upcoming season. Here are my top ten:
10. Pull out all of your old copies of games and videos (like the 2002 Championship DVD) watch them and build your own highlight reel of your favorite plays, then post it on YouTube.
9. Go to Vegas, watch the NBA Summer Pro League in person and complain out loud why the Lakers couldn’t pick up ______________ who is lighting them up right now.
8. Sneak into the Lakers El Segundo training facility to see who’s actually working out, then try out the Zero Gravity running machine yourself.
7. Start your own off season training program trying to gain 20 pounds of muscle like Kobe did in 2003 or lose 20 pounds like Kobe did in 2007.
6. Search through all of the celebrity gossip sites making sure that none of the Lakers got caught doing something stupid, like throwing someone’s birthday cake around.
5. Hang out at all the clubs and bars known to be frequent Laker hang outs and wait for one of them to come in, then when you see a Laker come in tell him to go home and practice some jumpshots.
4. Go on EBay and shop around for some Laker stuff.
3. Go to the Team LA Store and buy every Laker item on sale.
2. Take a trip out to Boston and tour the city in a wheelchair marked Paul Pierce and when someone asks tell them you bought it off Craigslist.
and finally….
1. Visit all of your favorite Laker websites (i.e. gamedayla.com, lakersground.net, clublakers.com, etc.) and post as many comments about the Lakers as you can!
Let me know what your top ten things to do in the off season are by posting your comments below. Go Lakers!
