A Year Later…

January 26, 2021 by Darius Soriano

I do not have anything amazingly thoughtful to say today. No coherent message to help anyone heal. No insightful story to inspire peace of mind. No anecdote that brings levity to a day so many are hurting. It’s been a year since Kobe and Gianna, John and Keri and Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah and Payton Chester, […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Cleveland Cavs

January 25, 2021 by Darius Soriano

lakers cavs

As the Lakers continue their road trip in Cleveland tonight, it’s important to say this up front: there may not be a more surprising team in the league than the 8-8 Cavaliers. Picked to be one of the worst teams in the conference and coming off a season where they posted one of the worst […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Chicago Bulls

January 23, 2021 by Darius Soriano

After a convincing win over the Bucks on Thursday, the Lakers moved to 8-0 on the road and started out their 7 game road trip the right way. They played with good energy and focus and LeBron — who has started out this year playing with more purpose than anticipated — carried the team home […]

LeBron James Continues to Defy Conventional Wisdom

January 22, 2021 by Darius Soriano

If there were ever a time when you’d expect LeBron James to slow down, it would be this year. Not because of eroding skills or because of sapped athleticism, but because conventional wisdom said there was no better time for him to choose to. The challenge of last season cannot be overstated for LeBron. From […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Milwaukee Bucks

lakers bucks lebron james giannis antetokounmpo

I’m having a hard time remembering the last time I was as frustrated about a Lakers game as I was during and after Monday’s loss to the Warriors. I can understand not playing well,1That happens with every team, after all. Some nights you just don’t have it. but I cannot understand playing with the type […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Golden State Warriors

I’m waiting for a larger sample of games (15 to 20) before I begin to dive into stats and lineups and bigger things that may or not be trends about the Lakers, but at 11-3 and winners of 5 straight they are at the top of the NBA for record, defensive rating, and net rating. […]

Lakers Game Preview: The New Orleans Pelicans

January 15, 2021 by Darius Soriano

After sweeping another road trip, the Lakers are now undefeated away from Staples (7-0) and boast the West’s best record at 10-3. Their latest wins (Rockets twice, Thunder) were all blowout wins, directly coinciding with Anthony Davis raising his level defensively and the team, as a group, putting the clamps on their opponents. With the […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Oklahoma City Thunder

January 13, 2021 by Darius Soriano

lakers thunder lebron james luguentz dort

After taking two straight games from the Rockets in truly dominating fashion, the Lakers are now in Oklahom City to face the Thunder. It’s the 2nd night of a back to back and after getting up to play a Rockets team with a lot of star power (regardless of the dysfunction), they now play an […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Houston Rockets (again)

January 12, 2021 by Darius Soriano

The Lakers got an “identity win” against the Rockets on Sunday, playing inspired defense, getting a dominant performance from AD, a great boost from KCP who came back from his ankle injury, and strong bench performances from THT and Montrezl Harrell. It really was their best game of the season, particularly from the standpoint of […]

Laker Film Room Podcast: Identity Win

January 11, 2021 by Darius Soriano

In one of their most complete games of the year, the Lakers romped the Rockets in a what Frank Vogel called an “identity win”. In this episode of the Laker Film Room Podcast, Pete, Mike, and I offer our takeaways from the team’s performance, focusing on Anthony Davis backing up his calls for more defensive […]
