Conflict Resolution

September 26, 2012 by Emile Avanessian

Imagine watching your dad parking a brand new Corvette in the garage, knowing that it’s all yours, but having to wait six months to get your license. With the strangest summer since… well, yet another strange summer in Lakerland in the rearview, the goings-on of recent months have begun to take root in reality. Learning […]

The Laker Way

August 21, 2012 by Emile Avanessian

I stand corrected. It appears the “new Laker fandom” will bear a striking resemblance to that which preceded it. Ever since Andrew Bynum schooled J.J. Barea on the nuances of Newtonian physics in the spring of 2011, it was apparent that the Lakers — as then constituted — required a facelift. As that spring gave […]

Help Steve Nash Help You

July 25, 2012 by Emile Avanessian

During his eight-year run in Phoenix, Steve Nash led the NBA in assists six times, and five times in assists per game and Assist Rate, finishing in the top three in each category every year. He turned in a record four seasons in which he made 50% of his field goals, 40% of his 3-pointers […]

Game 2 Preview and Chat: Lakers vs. Nuggets

May 1, 2012 by Emile Avanessian

Well, that was fun. A year after a playoff home opener in which they were brutally craved up by Chris Paul and after a(nother) regular season in which a double-digit leads made frequent cameos but were often unable to carry a show, on Sunday the Lakers physically dominated an overmatched foe in a manner that […]

Magic and Bird Take Broadway – A Review

April 8, 2012 by Emile Avanessian

From Francios Battiste’s comically squeaky Bryant Gumbel (seriously, that’s either an inside joke or BG really ticked someone off) to Tug Coker’s almost cartoonishly awkward Larry Bird to a whirlwind of scenes that at times feels rushed, the six-person production of “Magic/Bird” is certainly not without flaw. With that said, however, the play does well […]
