Los Angeles Lakers

Shaquille O’Neal has had an interesting career to say the least.
The one word you could use to describe his NBA career would be dominant. No other player in NBA history changed the way we look at the Center position quite like Shaq. Chamberlain, Russel, Kareem, they were all better players from a statistical standpoint, but [...]

The Los Angeles Lakers and Mike Brown agreed in principle to a 4 year, $18.5 million contract yesterday.
“F**king shocked” would be a nice way to describe my reaction to the hire.
The Lakers are replacing Phil Jackson, maybe the greatest coach in team sports history, with Mike Brown, someone known more for his taste in eyewear [...]

Remember back to 2009 when the Lakers front office let go Trevor Ariza, and signed Ron Artest to a 5-year contract?
Yeah, I bet Mitch Kupchack is shaking his head this year thinking why did I sign him, heck why did I let a young, athletic player in Ariza leave??
Sure Artest had his moments, and impacted [...]

Are you kidding me? You better be f**king kidding me. This has to just be some stupid rumor. It has to be. I really I don’t think I could take it if Carmelo Anthony somehow ended up on the Lakers. As a fan whose team is currently experiencing the longest losing streak in NBA history, [...]

Ron Artest disgusts a lot of people. Those people are self-righteous assholes.
They can’t see past the mistakes Artest has made, in particular the Malice at the Palace from 7 years ago. And sure, Artest has done some crazy s**t during his career.
The events are too many to list, but they do include applying for a [...]

After the Lakers won the NBA championship on Friday, some citizens of Los Angeles felt it necessary to terrorize anyone who got in the way.
Take the video below, for example. For no reason (certainly NOT in the name of celebration), these idiots decided it would be cool to not only demolish a taxi, but to [...]

Many of us are not at all interested  in the Celtics-Lakers Finals — but many of us are.  Dylan Murphy from Pardon The Opinion has provided us with his take on the whole thing, and I have a feeling many of you feel the same way.
Pissed about the finals matchup? I am too. David Stern’s eyes [...]

With the East looking like it is going to be a given the Magic and Cavs will face off again for the Conference Championships, it will not be nearly as easy to pick the Western Conference winners.

Orlando Magic F Matt Barnes looked like a huge bitch this past weekend when he tried to punk out Kobe with a ball fake to the face. I just assumed this would be the last we would ever see or hear from him. But now he has taken “talking s**t” to a whole new level, [...]
