Making it Back

February 23, 2021 by Darius Soriano Leave a Comment

lakers anthony davis lebron james dennis schroder

I am in the 6th grade and it is the first day of my month off from school as part of our “year round” academic calendar. Me and my best friend decided to go play in some sort of riverbed/drainage ditch thing near his house that we were told several times we should not play […]

Lakers Stock Report, Volume One

February 11, 2021 by Darius Soriano Leave a Comment

lakers stock report lebron james dennis schroder

From now through the rest of the regular season (and maybe longer!), I’m going to do a Lakers Stock Report for 5-9 guys on the team every handful of games (or so). I’m hoping to use this as a snapshot of which direction players are trending and, with that, give us a better look at […]

LeBron James Continues to Defy Conventional Wisdom

January 22, 2021 by Darius Soriano

If there were ever a time when you’d expect LeBron James to slow down, it would be this year. Not because of eroding skills or because of sapped athleticism, but because conventional wisdom said there was no better time for him to choose to. The challenge of last season cannot be overstated for LeBron. From […]

Kyle Kuzma, Shot Blocker?

January 4, 2021 by Darius Soriano

When Kyle Kuzma was asked about what his primary focus was heading into this season he didn’t mention more consistent scoring, ball handling, or even improving his 3-point shooting. These are obviously all areas that matter to Kuz and would help his overall trajectory as an impact player, but entering into his 4th year and […]

2020-21 Lakers Season Preview

December 21, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lebron james anthony davis 2020-21 lakers season preview

The defending champion Los Angeles Lakers begin their season on Tuesday against the Clippers. They’ll get their rings and raise another banner before tip off and then start their long quest towards trying to do it all over again. And, as it stands today, they’re the overwhelming favorites to do just that. What a time […]

Laker Film Room Podcast: Western Conference Foes

October 22, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lakers clippers lebron james kawhi leonard laker film room podcast

In this episode of the Laker Film Room Podcast, me, Pete, and Mike take a tour of the Western Conference to examine the landscape heading into the off-season. We started out by analyzing which teams are likely to be better or worse next season and why, then we transition to which teams are in the […]

Being Right and (Mostly) Wrong About Rajon Rondo

October 18, 2020 by Darius Soriano

rajon rondo nba finals lakers championship

In the year of our lord 2020, Rajon Rondo was a critical on-court contributor to a team that won the NBA Championship. If you’d asked most contributors to the NBA conversation (aka people who watch and analyze the game for a living — or even just for fun — but don’t work for or are […]

In Appreciation of Markieff Morris

October 8, 2020 by Darius Soriano

markieff morris lakers nba playoffs finals

The history of players who join a team after being bought out isn’t really great. Every year fans all around the league get excited about some player who was once probably pretty good getting bought out and joining their playoff team to help put them over the top. Rarely, though, does that actually happen. Markieff […]

When the Pressure was the Highest, the Lakers got Defensive

October 7, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lakers heat nba finals anthony davis defense blocked shot

It’s often said that when pressure is at its highest, at its most overwhelming, a person will revert to who they naturally are. There is no room for faking it in these moments, there are only instincts and you acting on them. There’s no deciding what you’re going to be, there’s only doing what comes […]

In the Aftermath of a Lakers Loss…

October 5, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lakers lebron james losing

There is no path of least resistence to an NBA Finals win. If no other lesson is learned from the Lakers game 3 performance, this is it. Rather than play hard and smart and be prepared for the different tactics the Heat would employ to try to save their chances in this series, the Lakers […]
