They're not champions for nothing. The Lakers opened up the 2000-'01 season with a 96-86 win over the Trail Blazers. According to media sources, the score should have been the other way around, with Rasheed Wallace and Co. making good on the amount of money the Portland team's owner Paul Allen spent on upgrading them during the summer. Better luck next time, Allen...it takes more than the addition of Shawn Kemp and Dale Davis to stop Shaq.
Anywayz, hope all of you had an enjoyable and safe Halloween.
