In Which Two Lakers Shove Each Other on Camera

NBC Los Angeles has the thrilling video. You'll have to watch or follow the jump (and unless you're a hardcore Lakers fan, probably both) to find out who was involved.



Benchwarmer Chris Mihm takes exception to the swangin' elbows of benchwarmer D.J. Mbenga. Mbenga takes exception to Mihm's defeatist attitude. And we have a shoving match.

A few talking points to use around the water cooler, where this is sure to be a hot topic:

1. Jordan Farmar clearly uses his knowledge of peace brokering in everyday life. All skills are transmutable to basketball.

2. Mbenga, um, escaped from a Congolese prison as a kid following the murder of his politician father. If he is swinging elbows, I would probably not get in his face.

3. It is only a matter of time before Mihm's "you're going to hit me in the face!" (or whatever he says) makes it on the hilarious Tumblelog White Whine.

4. WHERE WAS KOBE BRYANT? Off getting a mani/pedi while Rome burns, surely.
