Is Watching Lakers games STRESSFUL for you?

[AceFresh]

i get a little stressed but not to the point of you guys

I've been a bit more stressed lately... But that's because it feels like we're backing into the play-offs...

Anybody else feel that way?

It seems like about this time last year we were ramping up our intensity and driving for the goal...
This year, we seem to be wearing down and eaking out wins.

I'm just concerned across the board... That leads to stress during the games, I guess.

Nah we're not backing into the playoffs. Bynum's injury has made players play a lot more minutes than usual & fatigue set in for a good stretch. Now that Phil has started to trust Mbenga & Powell a lot more Gasol & others are getting their legs back. Once we get Drew back
he'll just have to play himself back into shape & IMO everything else will fall back into place.

Stressed out? nah not really... other than my buddy losing his hair already at 25 and my other buddy banned from driving because he got into an accident while listening to the game.. nah not really that much stress.. yup.. lol

Yes it is horrible. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth it. Sometimes I think by the end of the game I will be gray.

Star we are talking about THE LAKERS and not THE BOBCATS.

I don't get stressed unless it's a very close game that is going back-and-forth and down to the wire.

I would say that watching Lakers games is more agitating than anything else.

It's not for me because deep down in my heart of hearts, I know Kobe Bryant will save the day.

I'm always stressed when I watch Lakers games, sometimes I sweat, usually my heart rate is higher than normal when I'm watching the game.

Anyone else have these scenarios happen to them?

P.S. Lets get HOME-COURT

Oh yeah. I get more stressed out when the Lakers are a championship contender. When they were just fighting for the playoffs, they were the underdog in almost every game. It was easy to watch. Either they pulled off an upset, or they lost, which I expected anyway. This team, I expect them to win every single game, so every loss REALLY stings.

But I prefer things this way obviously. I do take it too seriously though. There have been more games this season than any other where I just had to turn off the TV because it was too stressful. I would just record it and watch the box score online. If they won I'd go back and watch it. If they lost.....delete. I'm really a puss when it comes to those nailbiters. Thank god we have the clutchest player in the league, because he's rescued this team so many times this season. MVP! MVP! MVP!
