THE LAKERS LOSE!!!

Yesterday, one of the best things happened.  The Lakers not only were knocked out of the postseason, but they were swept.  No, I'm not a fan of the Dallas Mavericks, but I would pick anyone over the Lakers.  And not only did the Lakers lose, they did it with absolutely no class.  Never mind that your coach is one of the most highly respected coaches in all of basketball.  Never mind that you are one of the most storied franchises in the NBA.  You saw that you were going to lose, and you decided to play schoolyard basketball, and show people that you truly do not have any class.  Lamar Odom being ejected was one thing.  No, the shove to Dirk was not okay and should not have happened, however I'm not sure he should have been ejected for that.  (Granted, I did not see it live...I only saw YouTube videos of it.)  But Bynum...are you freaking kidding me?  You acted like a child.  You knew you were out of the postseason, so you threw a fit.  He's all of five feet tall, you're probably a foot taller than him, and you elbow him in the chest when he's going up for a shot.  You just showed your fans, Mavs fans, basketball fans in general, and the world that you are a classless little bitch.  And then the Lakers in general...you lost by 36 points.  You're supposed to be the team to beat, the reigning champs, the best in the league.  Your coach is retiring at the end of the season, and that was how you reward him?  You gave up.  You could have done more.  You should have done more.  Even if you were going to lose, you should have played to show respect to your coach, your fans, and yourself.  But you didn't.  And that, I will just add to the list of the reasons why I hate you.
