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. […]

The Lakers lost their 4th straight preseason game — and 2nd straight to the Warriors — on Tuesday night, but that L doesn’t quite tell the entire story.

Lakers’ Summer League – Game 1 Thoughts
What a difference a year makes. Last summer in Las Vegas, the Lakers were somewhat of a disappointing team.

Kobe Gives Fans One Last Memory with an Epic Farewell Game
It is hard to think about it this way now after 20 years of amazing play that has made the sublime routine, but Kobe has built a career, no, a legend, off defying odds. It seems strange to say this about someone whose father was an NBA player and has the pedigree he does, but […]
