Mike D’Antoni & L.A. Lakers star in The Italian Job
Posted on 18 Nov 2012 by Cal Lee.
Mike D'Antoni will be calling his first game as the head coach for the Los Angeles Lakers against the Phoenix Suns tonight at the Staples Center. The expectations of success for the embattled head coach will be at its highest since his hiring was looked at as a means for Jim Buss to snub legendary head coach Phil Jackson over coaching this talented squad. Everyone in the NBA community knew the ...

The 2012 All-Killer Instinct Team
Posted on 16 May 2012 by Mark Cook.
When it comes down to the last few possessions of a basketball game. Their are only a few players that have the“Killer Instinct”. This special kind of player is willing to put the game literary into his hands determining winning and losing by the things they do on the court. In my opinion, here are the BEST “Killer Instinct” players in the NBA playoffs this season. 2012 ...

Kobe, Lakers get big win; World Peace gets ejected
Posted on 23 Apr 2012 by Eddie McDonald.
The Los Angeles Lakers and the Oklahoma City Thunder hooked up on Sunday for a Western Conference showdown. The Lakers came away with the victory in double overtime, due in large part to Kobe Bryant’s late-game clutch shooting. This, however, was not the biggest story that came from this game. The bigger story from this game took place in the second quarter when Metta World Peace threw an elb...

Roll The Dice….Nets!!!!
Posted on 14 Mar 2012 by Mark Cook.
In life you have to “Roll The Dice”. The Nets, Dwight Howard and the Magic are finding this out as they are all taking a “big” gamble as the Trade Deadline approaches Thursday at 3pm EST. I thought of THREE possible scenarios that could affect the Nets by Thursday's trade deadline. 1. NETS trade for Dwight Howard. PRO: This is the best possible situation for the Nets. T...

A TRUE PLAYER ALWAYS KEEPS THEIR GAME TIGHT…
Posted on 3 May 2011 by Melissa Tzotzis.
Was it a smooth game? Yes. Was it slightly aloof? Yes. Was it overdramatic? Yes. Most of all, was it incredible…to watch? YES! Last night’s game was as tight as the bathroom on an airplane…and yes…the Dallas Mavericks actually went into Los Angeles and won a game that almost seemed as though it was slip-sliding away from them for most of the second quarter. Needless to say, Disco Dirk...

Lakers Find Their Mojo
Posted on 27 Apr 2011 by Donovan Williams.
Now that's more like it. After a typically lethargic 1st quarter, the Lakers hit their stride at the beginning of the 2nd quarter while CP3 sat on the bench and watched the Lakers bench provide the spark the team needed; a 10-0 run that got the Lakers back in the game and was then punctuated in a way none of us thought was possible. Let's be real, Kobe doesn't have young legs. We haven't seen...

Clippers Need to Roll the Dice
Posted on 25 Apr 2011 by Mick Moody.
Las Vegas needs a basketball team. Plain and simple. Being one of the top sports cities in America (think gambling), none of the major sports leagues have even experimented with the idea. There has been some chirp in the past of bringing a team to Vegas, but with the recent news of the Sacramento Kings moving to Anaheim, it appears another NBA franchise will bypass Sin City for a town better kn...

Lakers Wrest Victory From Kings’ Grasp
Posted on 14 Apr 2011 by Steven Jones.
We all know how the movie ends. The ragtag misfits, buoyed by their passionate home crowd, upset the purple-and-gold Goliath in the last game of the season. Their wealthy owners, encouraged by the mayor who still fondly recalls his glory days, have a change of heart and keep the team where it belongs. Trust the Los Angeles Lakers to stray from the script. Their 116-108 victory over the host S...

Freaking Bynum
Posted on 13 Apr 2011 by Donovan Williams.
For months I told you not to worry. Not to be concrerned. Come June, the Lakers will be playing for the championship and that is all that matters. Then last night happened. As he has done a gazillion times before, Andrew Bynum ran to the other side of the court. But bizarrely, in the Andrew Bynum injury-prone way, he steps on a foot as he is running and hyper-extend's his right knee. Typically,...

Lakeshow Still Poised for Playoff Run
Posted on 6 Apr 2011 by Arthur Kai.
Well it seems that the Lakeshow have come off of their post all-star break high of winning 17 out of 18 games, by losing two straight games to the surging Denver Nuggets and scrappy Utah Jazz right? That rhetorical and obviously satirical comment could not be further from the truth. The only negative aspect of their “2-game losing streak” is that their chance of clinching the ...

The Butler Did It, Hayward Lead Jazz Past Lakers
Posted on 6 Apr 2011 by Wilson Tarpeh Jr..
The Utah Jazz did what few people thought possible, they went into Los Angeles and beat the red-hot Lakers!! Utah was short-handed as has been the case most of the season, as Devin Harris missed another game due to an injury. Utah beat the Lakers 86-85 despite Andrew Bynum's big night on the boards, Bynum scored 12 points and pulled down 23 rebounds!!! Utah still out-rebounded the Lakers 52-4...
