Most Lakers fans again don’t wear giveaway shirts (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=ap-lakers-crowdshirts)

Not even the Lakers can tell a fashionable Los Angeles crowd what to wear.

Most fans at Staples Center on Monday night declined to put on their giveaway gold T-shirts for Game 1 of the Western Conference finals.

The Lakers handed out thousands of shirts with their logo on the back and the slogan “Together We Are One” on the front, attempting the popular color-coordination crowd stunt performed in several arenas during the NBA and NHL playoffs.

The idea definitely isn’t hip in L.A., where the crowd gave the same polite disdain to thousands of giveaway white T-shirts earlier in the playoffs.

Some fans waved the shirts like a Terrible Towel, but most stuck them underneath their seats.

The Lakers have one of the worst crowds in the NBA. At least in the lower bowl.

Here's an interesting article Bill Simmons wrote about the Lakers home crowd.

I'm either really proud of this, or really ashamed of this. Can't decide which. Maybe both.

That's why Buss breaks the bank for the best players he could acquire so they won't need "energy" from "Laker" celebrity fans...because they'll get none.

They were corny t-shirts IMO.

Together we are ONE!

Shits corny. Just give everyone regular Lakers tee's and more people would wear them.

[Ashy Larry]

[Ashy Larry]

and why would you give everyone a gold t-shirt when you turn the lights off on the crowd ?????

[baseline bum]

The only time I can ever remember Laker fan wearing those was game 7 against Portland in 2000.
