LeBron James

Lakers vs. Clippers Post Game Thoughts

October 23, 2019 by Darius Soriano

The world is not ending, I promise. Well, at least the Lakers basketball world is not. The Lakers lost a basketball game on Tuesday night to the Clippers by 10 points, 112-102. There was a lot of hype and excitement surrounding this game — opening night, LeBron and AD vs. Kawhi and the new look […]

Dissecting the Downside of the Anthony Davis Trade

June 18, 2019 by Darius Soriano

While we still have some unanswered questions about some key specifics of the Lakers trade for Anthony Davis, we do know who and what the Lakers sent to the Pelicans in the deal. On the player side, it’s Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, and Josh Hart. That, alone, is a nice package of talent — a […]

The Lakers and Pelicans Continue to talk Anthony Davis Trade

June 12, 2019 by Darius Soriano

The Anthony Davis sweepstakes are open and the Pelicans are taking offers. We’ve actually known this for a few days, but according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Lakers and Celtics are bidding against each other (this is important and we’ll get back to it later) and according to the New York Times’ Marc Stein, the […]

Phil Jackson: Fading into View

August 31, 2018 by Dave Murphy

Basketball can be a fickle friend, for franchise stars who are ultimately consigned to the journeyman’s path and for systems, coaches and executives who fall out of favor for any number of reasons. Consider the case of Phil Jackson who disappeared like morning dew after his very public flameout as president of the New York […]

The Lakers Have More Shooting Than You Think

August 14, 2018 by Darius Soriano

Beyond the observation that they have signed some knuckleheads (or, put more kindly, out-sized personalities), the one critique that has been most damning this offseason focuses on the Lakers shooting deficiency. “The Lakers don’t have any shooters” is an oft-used cudgel used to hammer the front office’s approach and it’s coming from almost all who […]

Lonzo Ball: Something Different this Way Comes

August 9, 2018 by Dave Murphy

lonzo-ball

He is not yet 21 and his sophomore season in the NBA is still months away. The fanfare of being a No. 2 overall pick along with inherent expectations have faded to some extent. And while Lonzo Ball is not exactly the forgotten man, the arrival of a mythical storm god promises to send him […]

The Summer of the Lakers’ Mad Genius

July 27, 2018 by Dave Murphy

lakers-free-agency-lebron-james

The front office of the Los Angeles Lakers did exactly one thing this summer that played to conventional wisdom—they signed LeBron James. After that, the wheels of the free-agency bus seemed to go bumpity-bump, all through the league. But what if all this turns out to be the kind of mad genius that is so […]

On the Lakers Rajon Rondo Addition

July 4, 2018 by Darius Soriano

lakers-rajon-rondo

It’s been a couple of days since the Lakers renounced their free agent rights to Julius Randle and quickly pivoted to sign Rajon Rondo to a 1-year, $9 million deal. In the instant reaction world of online analysis, one would expect a site like this one to quickly process these events and spit out a […]

The Lakers Best Month of the Season Has Also Been Their Worst

February 1, 2018 by Andrew Ungvari

lakers-free-agency

After their 108-94 loss to the Charlotte Hornets on January 5, the Lakers had reached their lowest point of the 2017-18 season. Not only was it the team’s ninth consecutive loss but they were 16 games under .500 but a stretch of 15 of 21 road games was three weeks away. Since then, the team […]
