…makes me wanna go back to LA
NBA!!!
the main reason for the trip was to see the NBA.
coming into the the most important day in my life, nerves were high…word was kobe was gonna get traded, he had missed a few games before that day because he was on the trading block. we did not pay paid premium tickets to see kobe was in a suit! had it happen, I would have to walk to a liquor store in Compton at nightfall.
a ah kobe did play! and he sure did put on a show, the KOBE show… i cannot believe how good this guy is. you need to see him dominate live to really appreciate his skills…btw the lakers played well, utah were ok. check out the box score
The clippers wasjust collateral. They happen to be playing 5hrs before them, so we decided to make it a day and see both. there are suh contrasts to each game environment. its amazing how they clean up and change all the banners, floor and markings for the next game.
downtown LA get off at PICO station then walk to the Staples Center
the stadium doesnt even get busy till 1/2hr before a game.
ma man Magic Johnson
errr the clippers are a good no nonsense team they beat seattle that day
but you can tell they are a second class team in LA…they had about half the crowd of the lakers that day. They could never steal the heart of the people of LA - theyre all about drama.
tip: pay cheap seats for the clippers
…can you please stand for the national anthem….
lippers is a family affair, while lakers is all bout celebs
and the main event….
Stadium opens only 1hr before a game.
The kobe show!
itszz onn!!
Deron Williams dominates.his guy has a big future in the league.
Utah are a good team but have a rancid aura
lakers girls are a show in its self

Universal Studios Hollywood, LA
Universal studio is an awesome theme park and behind the scenes look into movies such as Jurassic Park (1993), War of the Worlds (2005) , Psycho (1960), King Kong (1933), Desperate Housewives… cool collection of movie relics …
at $60 plus a ticket is damn pricey but diffenetly worth $20…thanks for hooking us up kev.

Rodeo Drive, 300 N Rodeo Dr, Beverly Hills, CA, USA
Rodeo Drive is one of the most celebrated and exclusive shopping streets in the world, you’ll find Italian designer boutiques, the best in French fashion and world-class jewelers.
I saw a ralph lauren jacket for $US 3000 and a glass of juice on a menu for $US 10
I could afford swat here…

Celebrity sighting! anastasia
Venice Beach and streetball
most dynamic wall in LA
serious paddle tennis
venice beach residents
Venice Beach basketball rules. there is a share of scrubs and weekend warriors, there are tons of athletic, serious players. Jump-shots may not fall too often, and loud arguments break out every 12 seconds, there is more arguing than actual gameplay, nonetheless entertaining.. but you better be a real streetball player to hang at these courts on a good day.
courts from White Men Can’t Jump (1992) and American History X (1998)
we spent hours watching this shit
“yo momma so …., @#$%!!!, slam dat she!T, fcuk dat beech”

Halloween Carnaval, West Hollywood
300,000 plus celebrated halloween in Monica Boulevard, West Hollywood (largest in the world). special events, costume contests and the world-famous costume party. americans go all out…in terms of money and gayness. I was shocked too see the effort put in to what people wore that night, it was awesome…i was also shocked to see mario and luigi hook up. people say halloween is just an excuse for girls to dress skanky like britney. Halloween in NZ is really just for kids, here in the US they all do it.good times
as you can see i didnt go all out
