It seems like a lot of people have different opinions on what they are called.

The Lakers defeated the Pelicans behind 40 points from James and 21 from Davis. LA is now 44-12 on the season as they remain in first place in the Western Conference standings.

It's nice to see the Lakers having some fun moments again. The tragic death of Lakers legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna has seemingly put a dark cloud over the LA franchise, which is understandable. The death of Kobe is going to take a long time to get over, but hopefully, some of these fun moments continue to get Kobe off the minds of the players for a little bit.

With LeBron James and Anthony Davis leading the charge, the Lakers have a great chance of winning the championship this season. Los Angeles would be buzzing in June if LA was able to capture banner No. 17 for Kobe and Gigi.
