What NME wrote about local band Mere Mortals yesterday: The hotly tipped LA-based band are known for adeptly combining elements of Britpop and psychedelic rock reminiscent of Primal Scream or The Jesus And Mary Chain, earning them 'best unsigned band' accolades left and right.

Hornet Chris Paul put away 26 points and 11 rebounds, inspiring Kobe to remark "You won't be seeing too many dudes like that this season, getting into the paint like that. I love his game."
Current Record: 2-1, T-2nd Pacific
