As a quasi-Laker fan I’m happy to celebrate the dominance that LA has enjoyed over the past couple of seasons. I enjoy watching Kobe Bryant reaching even higher than we thought the top of his game reached. I enjoy watching Phil Jackson play the NBA the same way a cat …
The Los Angeles Lakers are currently buried in a 14 of 16 home stretch and their next three games are tantalizing. The Lake Show’s next potential scalp is the much improved and co-division leading Phoenix Suns. A three day rest should enable Andrew Bynum to return and possibly Pau Gasol, …

With Vlade Divac getting his number 21 raised to the rafters by the Sacramento Kings in March this year, (and ESPN trotting out another Vlade article today), I thought I’d have a little rant. Not about Vlade, I quite like the goofy, beaded Serb. I just smile and shake my …
I read an article today on ESPN.com and was astounded by what Pau Gasol has achieved in Basketball to date. From 2003 to 2009 Pau has climbed every Basketball mountain, achieving Olympic Gold, an NBA Championship and a Eurobasket Championship. I had defended him when he’d had his less than glorious moments in …
That was the score when Orlando’s soul was broken and the curtains were drawn on their 2009 season. The LA Lakers were in the middle of an 18-0 run that snapped the neck of the rabbit and set the top hat on fire in Orlando last night. The only smoke …
Yes, I said it.
The NBA has left the city of Los Angeles for season 08/09.

The Magic will taste victory in six games. Part of my predicition could be my complete dislike of Kobe, but the majority is based in the regular season.
I will grant you that Jameer Nelson was a large part of the regular season sweep that the Magic put on the Lakers, …
It’s the only word to describe the Lakers performance tonight. A simply devastating display that started with too many turnovers but then blossomed into beautiful team Basketball that had Denver fans heading home early.
Pau Gasol got what he asked for with more touches inside, and he made the right move nearly …
Well, well, well… after most of the dust has settled and most of the smoke has cleared we see the landscape about to take shape.
The Los Angeles Lakers and the Orlando Magic are both only one win away from the Big Dance. A great result for LA who for a …
Just so the heading makes sense, yes, I agree both series’ look like going seven. I’m probably the last to jump on this train but hey, I’m on, I have a ticket and I’ll enjoy the show.
As for Kobe, ok, so the three’s appear to have been bad judgement. If he …
