And the clock starts. You have 30 minutes.
Go!
(See earlier in the day for rules to this contest.)
------------------
UPDATE 4:14p: Okay, all guesses are in. And, since I'm feeling ridiculously generous (and I want to see a Round 2), I'm going to count four additional comments that came in after the 30-minute wire (sorry Loney Fan, "Rondo" is not a legitimate guess (or even a legitimate threat, some might say); and, as for you, SoSG EK, you have enough Lakers shirts anyway).
The guesses, as to which Laker will take the last shot of the first half:
- Kobe Bryant: Paul, Dr. Geek, Greg, Offerman's Rage
- Ron Artest: Josh S., Gagne's Lucky Glasses
- Pau Gasol: Mr. LA Sports Fan, Quadsevens
- Jordan Farmar: NicJ (sort of), Mr. F
Let's see how the game transpires. Stay thirsty, my friends.

KOBE KOBE KOBE!!! BRYANT BRYANT BRYANT!!
Ronald William "Ron" Artest, Jr.
Sobe Tyrant
Darn it I was going to post Garret Anderson
Hmm, tough tough... I'm going to have to go with Kobe too. Wait, can we have multiple people pick the same player?
Kobe!!!
Can I play?
If so I'll go with Fisher.
Greg, I'll leave final ruling to Sax, but I'm guessing multiple folks can pick the same guy so more than 12 can play. But since only correct pickers move on, seems like there's a nice auto-disincentive to pick the most popular choices (i.e. Kobes)
Paul Pierce
(he will be traded to the Lakers shortly before tipoff)
Pau
Actually since there's a prize involved, I'll disqualify myself. But I'm still playing in spirit.
EK, what are you up to?
So if only one person is correct, what happens?
I shall go with Ron Artest and I am hoping the Ron Artest "Interactive Fan Experience" rolls into Boston and hits up a couple of beantown fans
I can't believe no one picked farmar.
Pau Gasol FTW.
In hopes of less competition I am going with Rondo.
And also hoping that he misses.
If I had only waited one minute I could have seen what Quad was going to pick and I could have matched him in hopes of battling in a second round.
Next time Quad, next time.
And just realized the time. DAMN
You still can LoneyFan. The contest wants to know which Laker will take the last shot.
Shit! I'm too late too. My math skills suck after lunch.
YOU STILL HAVE A MINUTE NO WAIT IT'S PASSED NEVERMIND
@FB - you mean in general?
Right now I'm adding value to my company's net worth.
Right now, I'm probably subtracting value from my company's net worth to insure that the proper balance is maintained.
Is there a 5 minute "soft" period to the cut off? Cause I was 3 minutes late :(
D'oh!
Looks like MR. F was right.
Epic fail.
Terry Teagle
Devean George!
Yup. Damnit! I would have picked Farmar.
I'm going to change it back to Mike Penberthy
Okay, I'll amend the thread up shortly with the input. I have:
six legitimate guesses,
four illegitimate late guesses,
one disqualified-because-you're-a-Son guess, and
Loney Fan picking Rondo who is not even a Laker.
------
you guys crack me up
Shenanigans!
Kobe
Woohoo!
And Pedro! Is that the real you?
Thanks Mr. Sax!
Pedro, you doubly don't count
1) you're a former Son
2) you're dead
well kobe is the obvious guess but i was assuming it would be a last second half court shot. Thats usually farmar, brown, or odom.
Mark Jackson: This team (Boston) has never lost when they have been together.
THEY WERE TOGETHER FOR ONE YEAR
Update: I'm still thirsty, my friends!
