Lakers-Nuggets Open Thread

Happy new year, gang! I have to say, I kinda like this... a Laker game in the afternoon to warm up for the night's roistering. It beats watching minor bowl games, and I like minor bowl games.

Toast the arrival of 2012 whenever someone mentions:

• Andrew Bynum getting stopped twice by the CHP,
• How Arron Afflalo grew up on a farm in Compton,
• Carmelo Anthony,
• Kobe Bryant's knee procedure in Germany, or
• New Year's resolutions.

Cheers! (*toots plastic noisemaker*) (*slams champagne*) (*sloppy-kisses your mom*)
