A lot of things have changed over this off-season. Teams have new looks with new rosters. Some of the games’ elite teams have stacked up their rosters to try and compete for a championship. NavjotEnt over at YouTube has created a sick mixtape featuring these teams and players that are making this upcoming season as…
Consecutive road losses in Phoenix, Denver and Portland over the last week and change seemed to worry a few Lakers fans (you know who you are). In that case, back-to-back victories in Houston and San Antonio – punctuated as Kobe Bryant’s dagger triple slashed the net with 1:46 remaining to put L.A. up 98-93 –…
The Lakers remain in the state of Texas, for the finale of their three-game road trip. They’ve made the three hour ride to San Antonio to be the first part of a NBA on TNT doubleheader. Prior to making the trip; the Lakers ended their three game road skid and the Rockets 12-game winning streak…
Entering the January 25th game at the Staples Center, the Los Angeles Lakers were holding the best record in the National Basketball Association. This is certainly not new news; the Lakers have been flirting with the title throughout the regular season. Sure, Cleveland and Boston have lain claim to the title as well, however it seems all…
This one was a very good win for the Lakers. They controlled the tempo and held a very good San Antonio team to only 38% from the field. On Farmar’s first game back, the bench made a difference. The UCLA duo of Farmar and Ariza had 31 points in 42 minutes for the Lakers. Every…

They finally finished some of the freeway construction out by the airport here, and I’m wondering if we’ll be back yet again for more postseason time here. No one else in the Western Conference has impressed me too much, and if Manu Ginobili is as already as healthy as he looked tonight, I think a…
No one thought the Texas two-step through Houston and San Antonio was going to be easy, particularly with L.A.’s collection of injuries and the back-to-back situation. How ’bout the opposite? After the Lakers pulled out a final-seconds victory on Kobe Bryant’s three-point bomb against the Rockets on Tuesday, a worn-down Lakers team battled the Spurs…
The 31-6 Lakers remain on the road for the second stop on their ‘Texas two-step” a match up with the San Antonio Spurs. The Lakers made the 45 minute flight after beating the Rockets. TNT has a TV show named ‘The Closer’, but it is also yet another name that can be added to the…
