Lakers Season (restart) Preview – Five Things of Interest

July 29, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lakers-trail-blazers-laker-film-room-podcast

While the scrimmages were fun (hello, Dion Waiters!), those games did not actually count. They were good cardio and a nice reintroduction of the players in the bubble to NBA basketball, but beyond that all anyone was really hoping for was to come out of them as healthy as they could be. The Lakers did […]

Anthony Davis and the Leadership We Do Not See

April 9, 2020 by Darius Soriano

LeBron James is the Lakers leader. He’s the player whose words are paid most attention to (particularly by media and fans), the player whose footsteps are followed by his teammates. When there’s a big moment for this team, it’s James who everyone looks to for guidance and direction; it’s James who sets the tone via […]

Lakers Play Series: Post Split

April 3, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lakers bulls play series anthony davis lebron james

My favorite play from the Lakers this season wasn’t when LeBron drove out of a mid-post isolation vs. Giannis in the win over the Bucks, the LeBron drive vs. Marcus Morris in the win over the Clippers that basically clinched the game, or even the “hammer” action play the team ran for Danny Green to […]

On the Bucks, the Clippers, and the Value of the Lakers Regular Season Success

March 5, 2020 by Darius Soriano

Through 60 games the Lakers are 47-13. They have the 2nd best record in the league and the top record in the western conference. They’re top 5 in both offensive and defensive efficiency. There’s very little this team doesn’t do well; very few metrics that do not paint them as one of the league’s best […]

Amid Flurry of League Wide Action, Lakers Stand Pat at Trade Deadline

February 6, 2020 by Darius Soriano

The Lakers come out of the trade deadline the same team they were heading into it. Not a single move made, though it remains unclear how hard they pushed to make something happen. What we do know, errr — what we see being reported, is that the Lakers refused to part with Kyle Kuzma in […]

NBA Trade Deadline is Here

February 6, 2020 by Darius Soriano

nba trade deadline lakers kyle kuzma

At the moment I am typing this, we are 3 hours away from the NBA trade deadline. While there are Lakers rumors swirling, there is little substantive activity to report on. In the past couple of weeks, the Lakers have reportedly shown interest in Derrick Rose, Marcus Morris, Markief Morris, Dennis Schroeder, and Spencer Dinwiddie. […]

Ranking the Lakers Needs at the Trade Deadline

February 3, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lakers trade deadline marcus morris

The NBA Trade Deadline is Thursday and the Lakers have holes on their roster. Normally, then, you’d expect them to be active in trying to fill in the gaps on a team that is near the top of the league in terms of record, but on that has also had some high profile losses vs. […]

Are the Lakers Really Built for the Playoffs?

January 23, 2020 by Darius Soriano

lebron james anthony davis lakers game day

There is a certain type of team that is “built for the playoffs”. That team normally not only full of veterans, but ones who have a lot of postseason experience. It’s normally a team that has at least one, and usually two (or more), superstar players. It’s normally a team that can adjust its style […]

Measuring Stick Games and Falling Short

December 27, 2019 by Darius Soriano

lakers-clippers-lebron-james

The Lakers lost to the Clippers 111-106 on Christmas Day, their 4th straight defeat overall and their 2nd straight loss (in 2 games) to the Clippers. The loss leaves the Lakers in an interesting position of being the top team in the west record wise, but, from an optics standpoint, clearly behind the Clippers (and, […]

On the Lakers Losing Streak…

December 23, 2019 by Darius Soriano

lakers-lebron-james

The Lakers lost again on Sunday, a 128-104 drubbing at the hands of the Nuggets. Without LeBron James and with Anthony Davis suffering/dealing/playing through a knee issue in the 3rd quarter, the Lakers hung tight for two quarters and then lost grip of the rope vs. a very good Denver team. I could get more […]
