Lakers Are Deep, Wade is Great, Lakers Win

Was this not the perfect game to show how deep the Lakers truly are?  In a game where Kobe, Gasol, and Fisher shoot a combined 33%, and Wade goes off for an efficient 27 points, 9 assists, and 5 rebounds, the Lakers beat the Miami Heat, 108-105.  How does this happen?  The Lakers are ocean [...]

A Fan’s Dream Game: Lakers, Pacers Play No Defense, Kobe Hits Game Winner

What more could a Laker fan ask for?  The Lakers beat the Pacers at Staples Center, 121-119.  It was an offensive onslaught from both teams (minus a cold shooting streak by the Pacers in the 3rd quarter, which was the difference in the game).  After the insane amount of offense, Laker fans got to see [...]

The season is not even [...]

Kobe Goes For 40, Gasol Becoming 2nd Star

In about a month and a half, I will no longer have to call my favorite Spaniard a one-time former All-Star.  That’s because Pau Gasol has done nothing but prove he is by far the Lakers’ 2nd best player all year.  He became only the 15th European NBA player to score 10,000 points in the [...]
