    By Daniel Sagal on May 20th, 2009 | No Comments Comments
    Hello ALL!!! After what has been one of the most hectic times of my life, I am back! It has been a while since I’ve been able to post on here myself and luckily I’ve had some great contributors recently. Now that life has calmed down a little bit, I am ready to provide as much content as possible. As always, I am still very interested in having anyone interested in joining me to contri...
  • Lakers Rest Atop Power Rankings
    By Daniel Sagal on February 23rd, 2009 | 1 Comment1 Comment Comments
    The All Star break passed and the Lakers still sit where they did prior to it. They are currently ranked #1 in all of the power rankings around the league including ESPN, Sports Illustrates, NBA.com and USA Today. It’s a real pleasure to see them playing this well, especially without Andrew Bynum. Los Angeles has dominated in the month of February and especially in the last week. Pau Gasol i...
  • Lakers Move In Power Rankings

    The Los Angeles Lakers have had a big week this week and are now 25-5. They have proven everyone wrong and have proven to themselves that they can beat the best. Christmas Day was a date marked on their calendars long ago. The rematch with the Boston Celtics was something every Lakers fan drooled about since we lost to the men in green in last year’s finals. The 39 point defeat was difficult...

    As the season progresses, the Lakers seem to be progressively playing worse. Everytime they have a challenge, they fold. The only really impressive recent victory came over the New York Knicks last week. Besides that, the two losses to the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic were both inexcusable. The following are the ranking that each site gave the Lakers and the short explanation: ESPN.com – 3rd...

    Just a day after writing about Maurice Cheeks losing his job in Philly, it’s time to report another coaching change. The Sacramento Kings have fired Reggie Theus as the team has started off very poorly and management feels that the time has come to move on. Currently in 13th of 15th Western Conference teams, the Kings are looking to make some sort of change to get this season on a winning tr...
  • Thankful For The Lakers
    By Daniel Sagal on November 27th, 2008 | No Comments Comments
    This Thanksgiving I sit around and gather my thoughts… what am I truly thankful for this year? With an economy that has gone to shit, a family life that has fallen apart, and a love life that has been full of drama, there are truly only two things I am thankful for. The first is of course my friends. The people that I see everyday and make memories with on a daily basis. There is always some...

    A friend of mine pointed out an interesting video on youtube featuring the Lakers. Everyone has seen the various “Where ______ Happens” campaign from the NBA. This is an interesting video of the Lakers. It’s an extended version of what we’ve seen in the past but none the less… I like it! ...

    The following links are suggested reading material during another day off for the Lakers and a slow day in general. It’s voting day and it seems like everything else in life has come to a pause. What happens when sports mix with politics? It makes for some good laughs! Paul Pierce’s mind is a crazy one… one day he’s sane, the next he’s insane… who know’s ...
