Denzel Loves the Lakers, Lakers Love Him Back

Posted Jun 10th 2009 5:55PM by TMZ Staff

Denzel WashingtonFear not Lakers faithful -- Kobe Bryant and his boys have the perfect motivational tool before game four of the NBA finals: movie night (a shiver runs down the Magic's collective spines).

We're told the Lakers had three options for tonight's team bonding outing -- "The Hangover," "Angels & Demons" and "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3."

We would have recommended "The Hangover" (HYSTERICAL!!!), but coach Phil Jackson chose "Pelham" because the team wanted "to support [their] season ticket holder," Denzel Washington.

A discount on his pricey floor seats might be more appreciated by D Dub.

11. Just the type of Capitalism that the Messiah opposes. Enjoy it while it last, because pretty soon Saint Obama will be telling us which movies we're allowed to see and for how much.
