Lakers Hold Off Mavs
Coming off that meltdown in Miami you had to be a little worried when things got close down the stretch in Dallas. A double digit Laker advantage in the third wilted down to just two with 24 seconds left. Luckily for the Lake Show Dirk and company just couldn’t close as L.A. held on to win 96-91 over the Mavs.
Whew…
For all intents and purposes this was the biggest game of the...

Lakers Meltdown in Miami
It was there for the taking. A golden opportunity to beat the Heat went up in flames as the Lake Show took a page out of the LeBron book and just couldn’t close. Oh but in case you’re paying attention, Spoelstra, your man Wade sure can.
Kobe came out in Black Mamba mode looking to apply the death touch in the first quarter. But that fire just didn’t carry as his three with...

Phil Jackson Doesn’t Need to Tweak Heat
After doing his best to avoid talking about the locker room tears shed in Miami, Phil Jackson finally let it all hang out. By now you’re heard of his infamous “Big boys don’t cry” quote. If not you can checkout what Mike Bresnahan had to say about it.
This is one of those rare times when I wish Jackson wouldn’t play his public mind games. Not that I’m worried about him...

Bynum Great as Laker Streak Hits Eight
Maybe all those tears being shed in South Beach are in anticipation of the pain Andrew Bynum will be bringing to town in two days time. The Altered Beast is on the loose. Since the All-Star break the Lakers haven’t lost and a lot of that credit goes to the inspired play of Bynum.
Tonight in Atlanta Drew continued his stellar play with another dominating performance.

Lakers Do Spurs Like Spurs Did Heat
Two days ago the San Antonio Spurs handed the Miami Heat a thirty point thrashing. Two days later the Los Angeles Lakers gave the Spurs a taste of their own medicine with a never close contest that saw the Lakers open up a 32 point lead in the third. And in just over two days from now the Lake Show makes a stop in Miami.
But that is looking too far ahead. Let’s just talk about...

Lakers Tame Bobcats
We knew it was going to take an inspired effort to beat the Bobcats. For whatever reason they’ve owned the Lakers. What we didn’t expect was the price the Lake Show would have to pay to reverse the Charlotte curse.
This wasn’t a thing of beauty. But in the end the Lakers held off Charlotte and finally tamed the Bobcats to the tune of 92-84.

Devin Ebanks Out with Stress Fracture
As if planned by the Gods of Hoops, just as Matt Barnes returns from injury Devin Ebanks goes out.
The Lakers have announced that Ebanks will miss at least three weeks due to a stress fracture in his left tibia. The rookie was averaging 3 points and 1 board in the 20 games he’s appeared in.
Though it stood to reason he would be off the active roster once Barnes was back it still...

Matt Barnes Practices, Hopes to Play Against Charlotte
Finally healthy enough to fully participate in practice, Matt Barnes could make his return tonight against the Charlotte Bobcats. Good news for the Lakers who need all the help they can get against the team they just can’t seem to beat.
Having been cleared by the medical staff, the decision to play Barnes now lies in the hands of Phil Jackson. Barnes has been campaigning to play...

Bobcats are Measuring Stick for Lakers
Forget about the Spurs and their league best 50 wins. Who cares about the Threeatles or whatever they’re called in South Beach? Let’s not even talk about the Boston Geezers. The only true test of how well the Lakers have been playing recently is…the Charlotte Bobcats.
That’s right Laker fans. Watch if you dare. Tomorrow night those impossible to beat Bobcats make an appearance...

Lakers Should Pursue Corey Brewer
By the time this post his the interweb chances are Corey Brewer will have been snatched up by the Spurs or the Celtics or some other team that already has an embarrassment of riches. Too bad the Lakers aren’t among any of the interested parties.
In the here and now, Brewer would add nothing to the quest to three-peat. Nor would he see much time on the court with a logjam at the...

Lakers Wear Down Wolves
They already lost to the worst team in the league. So it wouldn’t be too shocking if the Lakers slacked off and dropped one to the second worst team in the L. Early on it looked like déjà vu all over again as the Lake Show opened lethargic in Minnesota.
Sloppy play allowed the T-Wolves to take a lead into the half and expand it in the third. Chalk it up to the turnover bug infecting...

James Worthy Gets Another Hall Pass
Already in the Naismith Hall of Fame, James Worthy has been selected for induction in the College Basketball Hall of Fame. Yet another well deserved honor for one of the greatest to ever play the game.
Before he was a Laker legend, Big Game James made a name for himself as a Player of the Year, All-American and most important of all as a two-time champion during his years at the...

Lakers Get Defensive in Oklahoma City
In a game that had a playoff feel the Lakers gave a championship effort. So much has been made about how old and slow these Lakers are. Naturally you’d expect the legs of Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook to be problematic.
Well, if by problematic you mean for one half of basketball then you’re right.
OKC ran out to a 5 point lead dropping 56 in the first half. Then something...

Kobe is Morphing into Mamba
The league has been warned. What happened in the All-Star game was not a threat. It was a promise. Kobe Bryant is slowly giving in to his alter ego – Black Mamba.
It took three quarters and a slight tweak of his right arm to get Mamba to come out and play last night. For good measure, Bryant’s first field goal attempt of the second half was taken with his left arm. Then he...

Celtics Get Softer in the Middle
The NBA’s trade deadline has come and gone and the Lakers were the eye of the storm. Basking in the afterglow of an inspired effort in Portland, Mitch Kupchak opted to stand pat as the GMs around him scrambled to make last minute moves.
Of all the teams that engaged in deadline deals, none is more confusing than what the Boston Celtics did.
Remember when Doc Rivers said having...

Lakers Tear the Heart Out of Rip City
The Lakers overcame a lot tonight in Portland. For starters they hade to battle their longtime nemesis the Blazers, a team and city that has given the Lake Show fits over the years. Then they had to contend with some truly awful officiating. As if that weren’t enough they had to contend with their own errors as 17 turnovers created plenty of opportunities for the opposition. Most...
