The Lakers stopped their five-game skid as they trampled the Indiana Pacers, 108-96. It’s too bad that it came with a price. D’Angelo Russell was lost for the game after he sprained his MCL on his right knee. He also has a calf strain to add to those pains. D’Angelo will have an MRI tomorrow. […]

Lakers Loss to Spurs Shows How Far There is to Go
“Not much to say… can’t be mad. The other team is just that much better.” That was from commenter LKK during/after the Lakers’ loss in San Antonio to the Spurs on Thursday night. While I do think there were some things to get somewhat upset about, I think LKK captures about how I was feeling […]

A Quick Note on Tuesday’s Loss to the Hornets
I’d be lying if I said I felt no disappointment or frustration after Tuesday’s loss to the Hornets.

The 4th quarter became a test of execution and timely plays, with Charlotte doing a bit […]
Lakers Fall Short Against Cavaliers in a Shootout
The Lakers were on a back-to-back and they drew the reigning, defending NBA champions at the tail end. As expected, the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Lakers, 119-108.
