This game couldn’t be over quick enough. The Lakers got smashed in their game against Houston. The final score? 134-95. I haven’t seen them get messed up like this since… well, okay, Friday. But this was just a massacre. The downfall could be traced all the way back to the first quarter (which really has […]
Game Recap
Lakers Fell Short Against the Grizzlies in Fourth Game in Five Nights
Well, the Lakers fell short in a tale of two halves. The Grizzlies were able to trip up the Lakers in a game that ended in a wacky manner, 103-100. Memphis was depleted as they were without Zach Randolph, Mike Conley, Chandler Parsons, Vince Carter, and James Ennis. The Lakers, who were playing their fourth […]
Lakers Score Season-Low 80 Points in Blowout Loss Against Toronto
So this is one game you want to throw in the trash. The Raptors worked the Lakers, 113-80. The 80 points are a season-low for this young team. All you needed to do was watch the first half. The Lakers were down, 15-4, at one point. They did cut it down to six by the […]
Lakers Go Back to .500 After Ugly Win Over Bulls
The Lakers got punched in the face by the New Orleans Pelicans last night. Not only that but they also lost Nick Young (for 2-4 weeks so it’s not as bad as we thought it was going to be). They already didn’t have D’Angelo Russell. But somehow, the Lakers pulled this one out against Chicago […]
Shorthanded Lakers Beat the Hawks to Sweep Season Series
I’d be lying if I was in any way confident the Lakers would beat the Hawks, but I did believe they could compete and make enough of a game of it that they could win it. Maybe I should have been more confident. The Lakers beat the Hawks 109-94 to sweep the season series and […]
Lakers Get Blown Out by the Warriors for the Second Straight Time
For the third time this season, the Lakers and the Warriors played against each other. Unfortunately, this contest was way more like their meeting two days ago than the one early this month as the Warriors clobbered the Lakers, 109-85. The Lakers were missing players once again. We know D’Angelo Russell was out but so […]
Undermanned Lakers Get Destroyed by the Warriors in Oracle
To keep up with the Western Conference champions, the Lakers needed to bring their A+ game. And without D’Angelo Russell and Julius Randle, it was going to be a monumental task. Yeah, they had beaten the Warriors before but a lot went right for the Lakers in their first encounter against them at Staples Center […]
Lakers Survive the Thunder with Nick Young Game Winner
Sometimes, it’s better to just post a highlight and celebrate a win. Swaggy from every angle #IceInMyVeins ?? #LakeShow pic.twitter.com/yGEB2xzOr3 — Los Angeles Lakers (@Lakers) November 23, 2016 To recap the play above, the Lakers, down one, ran their weave action to set up a play that was designed for Lou Williams. Nick Young, though, […]
Lakers Fell Short Against the Mighty San Antonio Spurs
So it was really cool to see Tim Duncan and David Robinson duel it out with Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant… wait a minute. Let me start over. The Lakers fell short against the Spurs, 116-107. But it’s not like the Lakers laid down against the very strong San Antonio Spurs. Even when the Spurs […]
Randle and Russell Carry the Lakers to Win Over the Nets
The Lakers moved to 7-5 on the season with a 125-118 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday. The win wasn’t pretty, but it counts the same in the standings. Standings, which I might add, are something fans of the team are actively watching for the first time in 3 seasons for reasons which have […]
