Don’t know much about chemistry
Gikuha sa Los Angeles Lakers ang center nga si Dwight Howard ug ang point guard nga si Steve Nash pagka off-season. Ug tungod ning maong lihok, nagkahiusa ang mga sports commentators nga kahadlokan na kaayo ang bag-ong line-up sa Lakers. Instant championship contender, matud pa sa uban. Mikuyog na gud ni Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasul ug Metta World Peace ang gituhoang labing banggiitang sentro sa liga ug ingon man ang labing maro nga point guard niini. Dunay miingon nga tulo na ka potential Most Valuable Player ang nia ning mong team.
Apan na unsa man nga 0 wins ug eight losses man sila sa warm-up sa pre-season games. Sagdi lang, matud pas mga believers, no-bearing o walay kwenta kining pre-season warm-up. Wa ni sila maninuod.
Ug tuod man misugod na ang regular season niadtong miaging semana. Ug napildi na pud ang Lakers sa ilang unang duha ka duwa. Ug ang mga team nga mipildi kanila dili kompleto ang mga lineup.
Mao nga misugyot ang uban nga wala o wala pay chemistry ang first five sa Los Angeles Lakers.
Gipangutana sa dugout ang Lakers forward nga si World Peace sa sakop sa sports media kabahin sa chemistry sa iyang team.
Mitubag si Metta: “Chemistry, that’s school. I’m out of school. And I’m afraid because chemistry blows things up and I might use the word love or something that’s better, because —chemistry—I don’t know. I like love and togetherness.
“That sucks—chemistry. Togetherness is better,” mipadayon ang forward.
“Does this team have togetherness?” Mipadayon ang interviewer. “Yes, we do. We’d be okay,” tubag ni Metta.
Niining tungora nahinumdom ako sa kanta ni Sam Cooke nga maayong theme song para sa mga nieskwela para lang mo iring-iring—“Wonderful World.”
“Don’t know much about history/Don’t know much biology/Don’t know much about a science book/Don’t know much about the french I took//But I do know that I love you/And I know that if you love me too/What a wonderful world this would be//Don’t know much about geography/Don’t know much trigonometry/Don’t know much about algebra/Don’t know what a slide rule is for//But I do know that one and one is two/And if this one could be with you/What a wonderful world this would be//Now I don’t claim to be an “A” student/But I’m trying to be/So maybe by being an “A” student baby/I can win your love for me//Don’t know much about history/Don’t know much biology/Don’t know much about a science book/Don’t know much about the French I took//But I do know that I love you/And I know that if you love me too/What a wonderful world this would be//La ta ta ta ta ta ta/(History)/Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh/(Biology)/La ta ta ta ta ta ta/(Science book)/Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh/(French I took)//But I do know that I love you/And I know that if you love me too/What a wonderful world this would be”
Pero, time sa, wa man lagi “chemistry” ang lyrics ning maong kanta. Para tingay sa Lakers ning maong kanta. Maayo pa tingalig maghimog iyang version niini si Metta World Peace.
