I hate all things Laker, and recall Blake going "tough guy" on us a couple years ago which was even more annoying.
However, how bad would we be beating the Lakers without that guy? He has really come to play our last 3 games against them. In fact, he dominated TP in that last regular season game and has really not fallen off in the playoffs. He's showed much tenacity, quickness, and those frequent tie ups in heading off TP drives have been impressive. On offense while he's not much of a playmaker, he can definitely shoot, score, and doesn't fear the moment in the slightest. He made some tough threes and other shots to keep the Lakers in the game at critical points.
So I will conclude by saying this is one tough little bastage who has earned my respect. Anyone who has quite that much game, compounded with the horrid look featuring a buzz cut and incredibly large bulging side-forehead vein, can be considered a success at annoying the opponent in a meaningful way. If he was a bigger guy I might even offer a higher compliment and call him a "goon." Perhaps "mighty mite" would be more fitting.
Stevie, if you were on our team I might even like you!
