The Lakers had a chance to pretty much wrap up the series by winning game four on the road in New Orleans. They could’ve been up 3-1 going back home but they for some reason were not motivated enough to get it done. They now face an uphill battle since the Hornets now have enough confidence knowing that they can compete with the two-time defending champs. Chris Paul had a monster game despit...

Put all worries to rest as the Lakers won their first game of the 2011 playoffs at home on Wednesday night. In game one they played no defense and let the Hornets pick and roll their way to victory but i guess Phil really handed it to them after because they actually played big in game two. The Lakers’ big men used their size and length effectively this game on both ends of the court. They...

Today the official schedules for the 2009-2010 NBA season were released. This announcement is particularly exciting because it gives us fans an early look at which opponents our favorite teams will be facing and when.  You can find the Lakers schedule released by the NBA. Because the regular season is 82 games long and most of us have lives outside of our NBA fanaticism, it’s difficult to catch...

As I have been giving this site my all for the last year and a half, I have hit a bit of a dry spell in the last several weeks. Many of you know that I have committed lots of my time to building Sasha Vujacic’s official site and contribute on a regular basis. Due to various obstacles in life, such as a failing economy and endless midterms, I have not been able to post articles as of late. I ...

As always, the Lakers are one of the more discussed teams of the league. With the Hollywood theme consistently surrounding this team, there is always drama to present. With all the anxiety built up after the horrendous loss to the Spurs, the Lakers are prepared to take on the Orlando Magic tonight. Lucky for the Lakers, Luke Walton and Sasha Vujacic are listed as probable for tonight’s game...

It’s been a while since I last hosted a live blog but I’m looking forward to getting back into them. To be honest, I’ve been forced to miss a lot of games this season so it makes it a bit difficult to host a live blog when you watch the game recorded about 12 hours later. Either way, without any further introduction, here is the live blog for the Los Angeles Lakers taking on the ...

The Los Angeles Lakers took on the Utah Jazz at Staples Center Friday night and proved to them why they were the Western Conference champs last year and currently the #1 seed in the conference this year. The Lakers started the game off ridiculously hot scoring 37 points in the 1st quarter while Utah only had 20 points. They later led by 20 points in the 2nd quarter at 50-30. As the game went on ho...

After putting together a review of 2008 for each Lakers player, I’m now prepared to put together new year’s resolutions. What should each player look to do better in the coming year is the question at hand. I hope that I have the answers. Trevor Ariza - Trevor is obviously the best slasher we have and his passing is becoming a lot more crisp as well. The part of his game that can reall...

The 2008 calendar year is coming to and end and this is a great time to review the various accomplishments of the Lakers players. The purpose of this article is to go down the list, review the stats of each player from the end of last season to the first third of this season, and summarize what the year has been like. Trevor Ariza – Trevor joined the Lakers midway through last season when th...
