Two game losing streak
Offensive rebounds and horrid shot selection were the story in last night's 82 - 72 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, their first win in 19 tries in Los Angeles.
Loose balls were devoured by the Grizzlies as the Lakers went through a horrible 2 - 16 shooting stretch that lasted 17 minutes or so during the third and fourth quarters. Quite frankly, it was disturbing to watch.
But alas, I do take some of the blame (enter psychotic fan here). My attention was divided during the game as I spent all my fan mojo wishing bad things on the New England Patriots. Often, when I wish bad things against a team that is not playing one of my favorite teams, it seems to me that my team also loses...bad mojo I 'spose.....
