Brook Lopez

Brandon Ingram Comes Through in the Clutch

January 27, 2018 by Pete Zayas

The Los Angeles Lakers won their 4th straight game on Friday night, and 8th in their last 10, with a 108-103 road victory over the Chicago Bulls. In this installment of Laker Film Room, I take a look at Brandon Ingram’s success from mid range against the Bulls (with a little help from Luke Walton), […]

New Starting Lineup Thrives in Lakers 99-86 Win Over Kings

January 10, 2018 by Pete Zayas

lakers-kings-recap

Many of us figured that the starting lineup at the beginning of Training Camp would be Lonzo Ball, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Brandon Ingram, Julius Randle, and Brook Lopez. It took a while, but it finally arrived last Friday night against the Charlotte Hornets. While it was less than inspiring that evening, that group has performed much more […]

Same Faces, New Places: Lakers Usage

January 7, 2018 by Cranjis McBasketball

People change. Are you the same you were a year ago? Are you spending your time the same ways? A year ago I hadn’t even considered writing or podcasting, and used Twitter rather passivey. I’d say I’m mostly the same person but with more experience and smarts and have used my time rather differently. NBA […]

November 4, 2017 by Pete Zayas

The Brooklyn Nets are a terrible defensive team that is suffering from a number of front court injuries, and the Los Angeles Lakers took advantage of that Friday night at Staples Center, in a 124-112 victory. The front court of Brook Lopez (34 points, 10 rebounds, 3 blocks), Brandon Ingram (18 points, 10 rebounds, 2 […]

Lakers Game Preview: The Brooklyn Nets

November 3, 2017 by Darius Soriano

The Lakers are coming off an encouraging loss — though a 113-110 loss nonetheless — against the Trailblazers in Portland Thursday night. A game that saw the Lakers battle back from a huge deficit and take the lead, only to have Damian Lillard crush their hopes with a last second game winner. I’ll take this effort, even […]

Lakers Analysis: Ten Takeaways from Lakers Preseason

October 15, 2017 by Darius Soriano

lakers-analysis-ten-takeaways-lakers-preseason

Lakers preseason is over and the regular season is around the corner. But before we close the chapter on the exhibition season, it’s good to take a look back and think about what we learned and how those games can inform our expectations for the real games. So, without further ado, here are ten takeaways […]

Laker Film Room: Lakers 75, Kings 69

October 9, 2017 by Pete Zayas

Las Vegas continued to be kind to the Los Angeles Lakers, as they got their first win of the preseason, beating the Sacramento Kings 75-69 in a contest that only early-October could love. Brook Lopez made his Lakers debut, and Luke Walton decided to start Larry Nance, Jr. in place of Julius Randle. Randle was undaunted, […]

Lakers News: Brook Lopez will “probably won’t play” in preseason opener

September 27, 2017 by Pete Zayas

Brook Lopez participated in Wednesday morning’s practice, but is unlikely to play in Saturday’s preseason opener against the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Honda Center in Anaheim, according to Head Coach Luke Walton. “Brook probably won’t play on Saturday, so there’s still a starting spot open for that game”, mused Walton when asked if any of […]

Lakers Analysis: Tall Trees in a Changing NBA Landscape

September 22, 2017 by Dave Murphy

lakers-analysis-tall-trees-brook-lopez-andrew-bogut

A funny thing happened on the way to the Forum. I was 700 words into the plethora of Los Angeles Lakers tall trees heading into training camp, and the team went and signed yet another wooly mammoth—Andrew Bogut. The basketball world last saw the aging veteran when he snapped his tibia less than a minute […]

Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram need Brook Lopez to stay healthy

September 20, 2017 by Pete Zayas

When the Lakers traded D’Angelo Russell and Timofey Mozgov to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for Brook Lopez and the 27th pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, the benefits were twofold. Not only did they clear some of the cap space necessary to realize their two-max dreams in 2018 Free Agency, but they also acquired […]
