Kobe Bryant Biography & Pictures
L.A. Lakers 110, Golden State 98
Ronny Turiaf had just buttoned his shirt after the greatest game of his NBA career when his cell phone rang.
Kobe couldn't travel to the Los Angeles Lakers' latest win, but the injured all-star clearly didn't miss a minute of Turiaf's breakout performance.
"I told you! I told you!'' Turiaf said into the phone, breaking into a wide grin. "You're crazy. Thanks for the advice.''
Whatever Bryant has told his teammates while he's sitting out, it's working.
Turiaf had career highs of 23 points and nine rebounds, and Odom wet 22 points in the Lakers' second victory in two days without the defending league scoring champion, 110-98 over the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night.
Odom added nine rebounds and nine assists, and Luke Walton scored 15 points as the Lakers followed up their surprising 114-106 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night with a thorough spanking of the Warriors in coachDon Nelson's inauspicious debut.
