Whatever momentum the Lakers had heading into Tuesday's game vs. the Suns was lost along with the game itself, under a barrage of made 3's from Phoenix. The Lakers had been playing well, but their defense let them down across the board, from the perimeter to … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Sacramento Kings

Lakers Game Preview: The Phoenix Suns
Are the Lakers back? The 4 game losing streak they suffered feels distant now. The 2 recent wins over the Blazers and the Warriors offered a return of what, I think, makes this Lakers team special. The aggressive point of attack defense, the commitment to … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Phoenix Suns
Lakers Game Preview: The Golden State Warriors
The Lakers face off vs. the Warriors on Sunday night, only two days after Dennis Schröder's return helped the team snap their 4 game losing streak with a win over Portland on Friday. Schröder's return cannot be overstated in terms of helpfulness and spark … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Golden State Warriors
Lakers Game Preview: The Portland Trailblazers
I sound like a broken record at this point, I know. The Lakers play the Blazers tonight and, again, it would not surprise me if things do not go well. The Blazers have lost 3 in a row now, but before that they'd won 8 of 9 with two wins over Philly. They're … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Portland Trailblazers
Lakers Game Preview: The Utah Jazz
Look, when the Lakers play the Jazz on Wednesday night I fully expect them to lose. Not only to lose, but to get their asses kicked. The Lakers, as I've mentioned multiple times recently, are not good. The Jazz, meanwhile, are playing some of the best … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Utah Jazz
Making it Back
I am in the 6th grade and it is the first day of my month off from school as part of our "year round" academic calendar. Me and my best friend decided to go play in some sort of riverbed/drainage ditch thing near his house that we were told several times we … Read Full Article about Making it Back
Lakers Game Preview: The Washington Wizards
It's rare that I'd call any regular season game a "must win". This is particularly true when the expectations for a team are to contend (if not win) a championship. Certain games can matter more than others, but must win? Nah. Tonight, when the Lakers face off … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Washington Wizards
Lakers Game Preview: The Miami Heat
For a Finals rematch, I have incredibly little to say about today's matchup between the Lakers and the Heat. Some of that is Miami related as they're still working to dig themselves out of an early season hole that saw COVID related absences and injury ravage … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Miami Heat
Lakers Game Preview: The Brooklyn Nets
Tonight the Lakers and the Nets play at STAPLES Center. The game, to say the least, is highly anticipated. It does not matter that Anthony Davis (achilles/calf) and Kevin Durant (hamstring) are both out with injury. It does not matter that neither team is … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Brooklyn Nets
Laker Film Room Podcast: ADjustments
In this episode of the Laker Film Room Podcast, me, Pete, and Mike discuss losing Anthony Davis through at least the All-Star break and what steps the Lakers can take to "replace" him (knowing it's impossible to "replace" a player as great as him). We use … Read Full Article about Laker Film Room Podcast: ADjustments
Lakers Game Preview: The Minnesota Timberwolves
So....yeah. I take one game off for some family time and not only do the Lakers lose to the Nuggets, they lose Anthony Davis to injury -- reportedly a re-aggravation of his achilles tendinosis and a calf strain. AD will be out for several weeks, and maybe … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Minnesota Timberwolves
Lakers Game Preview: The Memphis Grizzlies
In what many are describing the worst 6 game winning streak in Lakers history, this team has not lost in a while. Not since losing to the Pistons in the 2nd game of a back to back while on that 7-game, 11 day road trip. This streak has not been pretty, with … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Memphis Grizzlies
Lakers Stock Report, Volume One
From now through the rest of the regular season (and maybe longer!), I'm going to do a Lakers Stock Report for 5-9 guys on the team every handful of games (or so). I'm hoping to use this as a snapshot of which direction players are trending and, with that, … Read Full Article about Lakers Stock Report, Volume One
Lakers Game Preview: The Oklahoma City Thunder (again)
Without Anthony Davis and Alex Caruso, the Lakers played the Thunder to a tie through 4 quarters on Monday. In overtime, the Lakers pulled ahead, mostly by playing solid defense and outclassing the team with their superior talent. Tonight, the Lakers will face … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Oklahoma City Thunder (again)
Lakers Game Preview: The Oklahoma City Thunder
So, we're not really going to talk about the Pistons game. The Lakers won, and I'll take it. How they won, well, like I said in the first sentence there. Tonight, the Thunder come to town and the Lakers have an opportunity to play better vs. a team that, like … Read Full Article about Lakers Game Preview: The Oklahoma City Thunder
