After a great recent stretch for the Lakers of beating the Hornets, Celtics, Blazers, and Jazz, they are the only remaining team in the league with only 5 losses. The Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, and even Orlando Magic have managed to lose to sub .500 teams dropping them below the Lakers. The Lakeshow is now in control of their own destiny while the others trail for home court advantage. I...

This was probably one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen in professional basketball. After a long summer of Shaq talking through the media about how cheap the hack-a-shaq is, the Spurs decided to makea  joke out of it. Five seconds after tip off of the Spurs and Suns opening game, Michael Finley fouled Shaq. O’Neal was confused to say the least and when he looked over at Coach Popp...

Tim Duncan had 19 points, 15 rebounds, and 10 assists. Tony Parker had 23 points on 11-of-22 shooting. Michael Finley’s corpse resurrected and scored 13 points. Kurt Thomas, Brent Barry, and Bruce Bowen combined for 26 points on 10-of-14 shooting. The San Antonio Spurs led by as much as 17 points at one point in the second quarter. Yet, the Los Angeles Lakers won 100-92, beating the defendin...

The Los Angeles Lakers have done what 15 teams hoped for in the western conference heading into the season. The Lakers have beat the San Antonio Spurs in 5 games to advance to the NBA Finals. The Lakers last trip to the Finals was in 2004 when they lost in 5 games to the Detroit Pistons. With the Eastern Conference currently being fought out by the Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons, Lakers fans a...

Whistle… Whistle… Whistle… Lamar Odom has 4 fouls… Whistle… Whistle… Whistle… Derek Fisher has 4 fouls… Sasha Vujacic has 4 fouls… Jordan Farmar has 3 fouls… Pau Gasol has 3 fouls… THATS ONLY THE END OF THE 3RD QUARTER. At the end of the 3rd qaurter of game four in San Antonio at the AT&T Center, the Los Angeles Lakers led...

Whoa. This is my first time writing in such a great blog as this. Thanks, Daniel. Anyways. Who cares? Let’s go to the keys for tonight’s game. By the way, nice game by the Pistons. For the Lakers : Game 3 is history. And as Fisher said it, “hold on to some of that frustration, some of that resentment that you have for the opponent… but you let go of the fact that you lost ...

This series can either take a turn for the best, the Lakers going up 3-1, or a turn for the worst, the Spurs tying it up at two games a piece. Game 4 is a very pivotal game in this series and can either put a team deep in the hole or revive them entirely. The Lakers won games 1 & 2 at Staples Center in a Hollywood type of way, the first game was a 20 point comeback in the 2nd half, and the sec...

Once again, the Los Angeles Lakers faced the San Antonio Spurs last night in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. The first game of the series was quite an adventurous one as they came back from a twenty point deficit to take a series lead and hold the home court advantage. Last night, the home court advantage was once again at stake. The Lakers didn’t wait for Kobe Bryant to change his ...
