Why Go To The Stadium When The House Will Do Just Fine?
Remember L.A. Gear's L.A. Lights shoes? The ones with the red LED lights in the heels that would light up when you walked? Well, although not in the class of Nike, Reebok, or Adidas, L.A. Gear apparently made some people a buck or two...Specifically Steven Jackson, the current chairman of L.A. Gear.
How nice is Jackson's Bel Air mansion? Well it would even make the Banks family envious. This past Monday, rather than getting stuck in traffic from their hotel to the Staples Center, the Pacers decided to hold a shootaround at Jackson's home, located nearby the hotel the Pacers were occupying. House exactly could this be done? Well the Pacers certainly felt like they were shooting around at the Staples Center: "The house featured a regulation-size NBA court that was a replica of the Staples Center."
The house also has a bowling alley, movie theater, tennis court, and game room.
After the shootaround Stephen Jackson and Jermaine O'Neal put in the extra effort and worked out in Jackson's exercise room, specifically with the punching bag...you never know when you will need to "take care of" a fan or two.

no firing range? that would be much more appropriate than a bowling alley. or even a b-ball court for that matter.
(funny side note: the word verifcation is gfuck. ha!)
I'm friends with the Jackson kid's and have played there. It's unreal. Let's just say the pair of LA Gear's in my closet are straight from the gym shoe closet.
I'll be secure in the knowledge that he'll have some video hoes hanging outside the gym to take care of the players "needs" when called upon -- the NBA...I love this game!
Guns and LA Lights. That is how real thugs role.
