A Disappointed Season Finale for the Lakers

Tonight Lakers played Clippers. What a disappointed season finale. Lakers lost by 16 points, 91-107. With the many injuries the Lakers have, Sasha sprained his left feet.

Sasha getting injured let the team down because tonight, like last night, Sasha played super well. Just when Stud said that the "Machine" has back, he got injured. No good news from him yet. Tomorrow he will get a complete check. The Lakers is shorthanded; Farmar, Sasha, Bynum, Bryant, Odom have injuries.

With the absence of Kobe Bryant, Shannon Brown stood up for two consecutive nights. Pau Gasol began a good night, but in the third quarter, his production declined. Lamar Odom, on the other hand, picked up his offense in the fourth quarter.

Even though the Lakers bench played a better-than-normal game, the Lakers lost because of the lack of defense and the injuries.

Lakers again this year ended the first seed in the Western Conference. The first round opponent for the Lakers is the Thunders. The schedule of the first four games will be:

Sun: at Staples Center, noon, ABC
Tues: at Staples Center, 7:30pm, FS West
Thur: at OKC, 6:30pm, KCAL 9
Sat: at OKC, 6:30pm, KCAL 9

All times is pacific time. Kobe will be returning to the playoff, and hopefully Bynum will return too. With the rest from today till Sunday, we hope that the injuries would have a better news.

Sasha "The Machine" with 2 Buzzer Beater today

Sasha Vujacic had a season high night. He scored 13 points, 5 of them came from two buzzer beaters. One from downtown in the first quarter and one from the third quarter. In addition to his 13 points, he got 6 rebounds.

Sasha had a disappointed season. As Shannon Brown plays better and better in this team, Sasha's minutes had been cutting down. However, tonight the "Machine" had come back.

Along side with Sasha, Lakers bench did a pretty good job in tonight's game. Jordan Farmar, DJ Mbenga, Luke Walton, Adam Morrison, and Josh Powell had scored in the game.

The bad news is Jordan Farmar injured himself after he played the first half of the game. Nothing huge is expected from his injury, but he won't play in tomorrow's game against the Clippers for precaution.

Lakers injuries has been hurting the team recently. Kobe has sore legs and index finger injury. Bynum is not playing untill the playoff because of strained left Achilles tendon. Artest and Brown have thumb injury. Luke Walton missed a big part of this season. Good to see Luke Walton playing in a high level tonight.

Let's hope that all player will get plenty of rest before the playoff season beginning April 17th. Lakers' fist round opponent is the inexperienced Oklahoma Thunders. This series will be very energetic since the Thunders is a very young team.

Lastly, I attached the video of a Shannon Brown signature move, a dunk.

New Core i5 and i7 Processors on MacBook Pro

Today I received a email from Apple.Inc. Finally, Steve Job decided to put the new Intel processor, the Core i5 and i7, into the 15-inches MacBook pro and 17-inches MacBook pro. Unfortunately, the 13-inches MacBook pro will still have Core 2 Duo.

The incorporation of the new processors into the MacBook pro line means more power and less energy consumption. Also, Apple put new nVidia GeForce for better HD and 3D performance from photos, games, and videos.

The price for:
i5 2.4GHz 15-inches: $1,799
i5 2.53GHz 15-inches: $1,999

My First Post for This Blog

I don't know why, but today I just really want to create a blog to record my life. Then, I created this blog. When I was planning this blog, I came up with many topics for this blog. Therefore, I think this blog will be a mix of many topics such as my life, computing, mini reviews, tutorials of how-to, and sport etc.

I will tell a little bit about myself. I am 5'11 Costa Rican born Chinese. My biggest regret is not able to grow up to 6 foot. Well, I don't know if it's a regret or not because I cannot control it. I love music, pop, rock, R&B, and hip hop mainly. I am learning and trying to practice piano by myself. I play some guitar. I am a big big Lakers fans. (Go Go Go Lakers!! Give me another championship!!!) I only watch sports. Sport is not my strongest field. I speak Mandarin, Cantonese, English, and Spanish.

Also, I am a Christian. I am serving as sound man in my fellowship. Easy guys, this blog won't be religious although I think some times I will touch religious topics.
I think the introductory post will end here because I don't know what to tell already haha.
