SLAM Online —
Kobe fans, please admit…your boy got got by the Kings’ Slovenian point guard last night.
UPDATE: Here’s a closer view of the damage.

Impressions from Preseason #3
Sactown Royalty —
* In the third quarter, Jason Thompson flashed to the left elbow extended. He put his hands out to receive the pass from Beno Udrih, who held at the top of the key extended. As Udrih went to pass the ball, Thompson instead flashed inside. Turnover. Instead of hustling back on defense, Beno stood in place to yell at Thompson, who did try to hustle back but was completely behind the play. Easy two for the Lakers.
This wasn't shown on the telecast, but Sam Amick captured it:
Udrih stood frozen in frustration while the Lakers went on the break, leading Francisco Garcia to just about rush the floor and shove him back on transition ...
Video: Spinnin' Beno Udrih sends Kobe to the floor
Ball Don't Lie —
Nothing you haven't figured out by now, but most NBA fans fall into one of two camps: those who love Kobe Bryant and those who absolutely detest him. So, after watching Beno Udrih cross-spin Kobe out of shorts this past weekend, you're probably going to say either, "Big deal, Beno pushed him, it happens to the best of 'em" or, "HAHAHA! KOBE SUX! HE'S SO OVERRATED! HE CAN'T PLAY DEFENSE!" Which camp do you belong to? SLAM offers up a much closer view of the Udrih tornado here.
Devin Harris Playing Just a Little Too Casually

Filed under: Kings, Lakers, Nets, NBA VideosVia TrueHoop, let's watch New Jersey's Devin Harris get hustled off a London playground by an English streetballer. If it's any consolation, chum, Jason Kidd would have lost at least 20 seconds sooner ... although there's the off chance Kidd's missed jumper could have rendered the Englishman unconscious. After the jump, one more puny white kid destroying a star NBA guard. If you dislike Kobe Bryant or the Lakers on any level, I'd highly recommend you check it ...
Beno Udrih Crossover On Kobe Bryant During Kings-Lakers Game [NBA Preseason]
FanIQ Blog —
During the Lakers' 94-89 preseason win over the Kings on Sunday, Kings guard Beno Udrih dropped one of the sickest moves of the preseason so far.
There's not much to say about it, other than just watch the video. He crossed over Kobe Bryant so bad, it was almost downright embarrassing. Kobe ...
Beno Udrih crossover broke Kobe Bryant
Sports Crackle Pop —
Kobe Bryant is probably the NBA’s best lockdown defender. When he wants to shut someone down, it usually happens. That is why it is so rare to see Kobe get broken like this. Beno Udrih of the Sacramento Kings put a spin move that sent Kobe sprawling to the floor. My guess is the MVP will put that in the memory bank and make Udrih pay for this later.

So, how good are we?
Better than the Lakers but worse than the Magic? No, we're not. Every pundit in the business seems to think that we were extremely lucky to beat a depleted Lakers team, and I'm afraid I tend to agree. Even Bawful at Basketbawful wasn't convinced by our victory, after he claimed that the Spurs were at that point in a team's evolution where they were good, very good, but just couldn't win games against the top-tier teams. Tough crowd.
This was an important win for us, don't get me wrong, but we need to improve. Thing is, it's always easier to improve when you're winning. Or at least it feels that way.
