Kim to Khloe: I thought we were going ring shopping

Number of Times a Laker Was a Distraction to a Kardashian : 1

It was overheard, even during the overwhelming applause as Adam Morrison collected his first of many championship rings, Kim complaining to her little sis about having to sit through a basketball game. She thought Khloe had promised to go ring shopping with her when she was invited to see her new brother-in-law "get his ring" on Tuesday night. Or maybe it was Lamar who didn't explain it right to his new bride. Either way it was a total drag for a certain Kardashian to be wasting her night stuck inside Staples Center when all along she could have been browsing the Jewelry District.

We agree...what a drag.

Not Just Ron Ron Say So (73)

I know, I know: I shouldn't be posting this until I have my Northwest Division preview up. Oh well. I figure news is news. Not that I broke it, but it's nice to know that I'm on the same wavelength as the L.A. Times, who- like me- see the Bull-ish ambition of this year's Lakers. Unlike me, they have official sources, quotes (Lakardashiodom going on the record), and credentials.

And yes, this was my secondary topic, but it's already news and they haven't even tipped off yet.
