Lakers Open 2016-17 Regular Season with Win Over Rockets
So remember four years ago when Steve Nash and Dwight Howard had that magazine cover and it said “NOW THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN”? Well, it definitely wasn’t fun that particular season but if I was good at photoshop, I would mock up a cover of the Laker kids with that same exact headline. […]
