My family was in town when the Lakers were up against the Clippers. I was hoping they would be able to get some tickets to finally see Lakers game. But the prices were raised last minute and they eventually went to Manhattan Beach instead. But overall, this game was very high intensity with the Lakers defeating the Clippers during their last meeting. But this time the Clippers had a goal set, and was able to grind out a win. I’ll get some more captions later, I have been really busy trying to keep up with my Ph.D. program and juggle shooting on the side so I had to give up blogging for homework. I hope you enjoy!
