I don't need #KFC, but I really don't want #Pringles

The Voice got the Beyonce Fan in full effect . . . .no bueno

It wouldn't help Dwight's reputation as a coach killer, but the Lakers would 100% choose Dwight over D'Antoni. DB bit.ly/17WECkK

If most fans blame #Pringles for running Kobe into the ground , what happens if #Pringles is the reason Dwight leaves the Lakers?

If it comes down to losing Howard or firing D'Antoni, the team will let MDA go. Which is what most fans seem to want them to do. DB

Could this be the first domino to fall? Dwight Howard apparently not fond of Mike D'Antoni. Here we go. DB bit.ly/17WECkK

Damn @Judith_Hill . . . . DAYAM. #GooseBumps

Claw. AK

Interesting off season looming.. Will spend time with d12 #stay and talk with the Buss family in hopes that Pau stays as well #my2cents

ICYMI: Last night Kobe scoffed at the retirement questions people were asking him before his announcement. bit.ly/10dL8vK

One thing is absolutely certain - Dwight Howard will not be on the Clippers next season. DB bit.ly/162VTcf

Clifford expects to play in Game 4.

Always nice to see Dennis Rodman is still outside his freaking mind. (via @NBASportsCity) DB bit.ly/162Qu51

Proud to announce we're partnering up with L!VE Talks: An event with @PhilJackson11 bit.ly/13G707n <= Coupon: LAKERSNATION

Clifford and Greene are on the ice today. Stoll is still out.

Lots of smiles and laughs as the #LAKings fly around the ice today. This is still a loose, confident bunch heading into Game 4.

I'm looking forward to the chapter in Kobe's book called "Where I Hid Smush's Body." DB bit.ly/16KaZmt

Kobe states on Twitter he wants to write a book. Would you read the Mamba biography? DB bit.ly/16KaZmt

I'd love to read an oral history of the "We Are The World" music video. Make it happen, @grantland33

When Kobe met Phil Jackson for the first time, he asked him for an autograph: bit.ly/16K8NLC

Think I've decided to finally write my OWN book #RNI #iswatitis

Kyle Clifford practices, status for Game 4 still unknown. espn.go.com/los-angeles/nh…

Lakers' week in review lat.ms/19VrZmy

I'm late to the party but love this. RT ‏@SerenaWinters Mark Madsen & I danced yesterday. What more is there to say? youtu.be/Q8ig1c9N3S8

ICYMI: Our Kobe article from the event tonight is now complete w/ video of the Mamba. bit.ly/10Ha9hP

Thanks to @CassidyHubbarth I can't get this song out of my head. #OldSchool youtube.com/watch?v=y5pD4n…

It is truly fascinating seeing the difference between Kobe wanting to play for the Lakers & Dwight wanting to play for the Lakers

Kobe Bryant announces August event to help eradicate homelessness lat.ms/19T4Uko

According to Kobe, he's not about to retire. He "still has work to do." DB bit.ly/10dL8vK

Kobe took to Twitter to address all the retirement rumors that were swirling earlier. DB bit.ly/10dL8vK

I'm waiting for a playoff series pitting two teams that really, really like each other. BK

Really?? Me. Retire?? Soon, but not yet Vino still has work to do #35 #OG #kbvff

There will be an event called Kobe: Up Close on August 15th at Nokia Theater. bit.ly/10Ha9hP

Kobe's announcement tonight was that he's teaming w/ Sports Spectacular for an event to help fight homelessness. bit.ly/10Ha9hP

Zab Judah was right. Lucas "Lay Em Flat" is a tough opponent. Zab said after the fight that he would be a champ one day.

I think one more fight and Lucas "Lay Em Flat" Matthysse will be in the runnings. But he definitely made a case. boxingscene.com/matthysse-i-go…

Jason Collins: "I turned down a birthday party invite from Anderson Cooper to be here tonight. Things like that didn't happen a month ago."

Kobe teaming w/ Sports Spectacular to help eradicate homelessness. bit.ly/16IJSbf

Kobe time.

And we're back. Here's the live video of the event (that hopefully) includes Kobe soon. DB bit.ly/16II2qR

This dinner is lasting longer than Mike Brown's season. DB

So, @DodgersNation, is Don Mattingly going to be coaching the Indians next season? #TheMikeBrownClub DB

Time for dinner. The Kobe announcement is expected to come after dinner. We'll keep you posted. DB

Once again, our friends at @NBASportsCity have the live stream for the event running now. Check it out here: bit.ly/16IJSbf

"He asked us to continue the Buss legacy. And to continue winning. And we're gonna do that." - John Buss. bit.ly/16II2qR

Man, John looks so much like his father. Even sounds and laughs like Jerry. DB

John Buss, son of Dr. Jerry, on the stage now talking about his father. bit.ly/16IJSbf

"The first year he bought the Lakers he won a championship. That doesn't happen." - Jerry West on Dr. Buss. bit.ly/16II2qR

Elgin Baylor on stage w/ other former Lakers talking about the late Dr. Jerry Buss.

Good piece by @Wojyahoonba about how the Pacers developed Lance Stephenson. AK yhoo.it/10c3tJH

Chris Paul on the stage talking now. Maybe Kobe's waiting to hit him w/ a water balloon. DB bit.ly/16II2qR

John Salley out here Hindenburging. This is painful to watch. DB

John Salley out here floppin' like he's on the Clippers. DB

If you're having trouble w/ the Lakers Nation link, our friends at @NBASportsCity have it too. bit.ly/16IJSbf

Event is about to begin. Remember you can watch live on LakersNation ---> bit.ly/16II2qR

If you're having trouble connecting, refresh a couple times and eventually it works. Again, sorry for the inconvenience, folks. DB

If you get a Database Error just refresh a couple times. Been having some server issues today. Sorry for the inconvenience. DB

Alright the event is live. Tune in to watch Kobe's special announcement right here: bit.ly/16II2qR

So Kobe's event will be streamed live online and we should have it for you on LakersNation.com once it launches. Stay tuned! DB

Just learned an interesting little factoid: The little kid Elvis impersonator in "Honeymoon in Vegas" is Bruno Mars. AK

Houston? Really Dwight? Even Shaq doesn't like the idea.

So while we're still far from a resolution, right now it seems Dwight is thinking Lakers or Texas for next year. DB bit.ly/10dkIdx

The media circus that surrounded the "Dwightmare" was absurd. And he's mentioned numerous times he wants to avoid that this time around. DB

I do believe Dwight doesn't want a repeat of last summer, which is one of the reasons he's intent on keeping quiet this time around. DB

The bottom line is that Howard will take his time, there will be countless rumors, and then he'll make his decision. That's how it goes. DB

Saying this means he isn't loyal or any of that nonsense is a waste of time. Even Kobe threatened to leave via free agency at one point. DB

Being mad at Howard for testing free agency isn't fair. It's his right to do it, and nearly every player before him has done it too. DB

Ultimately the Lakers will welcome Dwight back w/ open arms no matter how long it takes him to decide. DB bit.ly/10dkIdx

Lakers front office has said they want to know what Dwight's going to do, but he's shown no indication of speeding up his process. DB

One thing is for certain: even though LAL wants a quick answer, they won't get one from Dwight Howard. bit.ly/10dkIdx

But essentially Dwight would have to agree to another tough year in L.A. before there's enough cleared cap space to make a splash. DB

In terms of money, the amount Howard would save in TX because of lack of income tax could compensate losing Bird Rights. DB

But the idea that Howard is intrigued by the possibilities in Houston isn't a new one. We've heard this before. DB bit.ly/112MONA

Now, does that mean Howard wants to leave and avoid the pressure of market like Los Angeles even w/ its benefits? I'm not so sure. DB

For the most part, for some reason Dwight hasn't been widely accepted in Los Angeles or by Laker fans. DB

In terms of Dwight, it sounds like LAL still has the most off-court opportunities for him. But is that enough to entire him to return? DB

If there's one thing we've learned about Dwight, it's that there will be dozens more of these stories before we have a resolution. DB

Dwight Howard is reportedly intrigued by one NBA team. And it isn't the Lakers. DB bit.ly/112MONA

We've got our first Dwight Howard update of the summer. Stay tuned. DB

They had Lakers themed Gatorade at the gas station I just stopped at http://t.co/U2Sq0DcTlO

Wow!!!! If this fight with Danny Garcia vs Lucas"Lay em on his Back" Matthysse happens.They should show it everywhere boxingscene.com/matthysse-garc…

From our friends at @NBASportsCity - Spurs beat up on Memphis to win Game 1 of the WCF. DB bit.ly/16Bk956
