Lakers owner still enjoying Hall of Fame induction
Basketball Betting Lines
08/17/2010 - BELL GARDENS, Calif. (AP) -Relishing the afterglow of being inducted into the Hall of Fame last week, Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss was candid, funny and reflective when sharing his thoughts on his life, his team and the Miami Heat. Buss, a poker aficionado who plays an average of six times a month, discussed the topics before hosting the Mariani/Buss Charity Open poker tournament at the Bicycle Casino on Tuesday. He has been the one smart enough to spend the requisite money to acquire the talent required to be successful. Since he took ownership in 1979, the storied franchise has won 10 NBA titles including this year's that ended by beating the archrival Boston Celtics. This summer, the Lakers signed point guard Steve Blake, wing Matt Barnes and center Theo Ratliff, additions Buss thinks will help the team three-peat.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.
