The Los Angeles Lakers are in a serious rut right now and Russell Westbrook is a focal point of their struggles. His frustrations hit an all-time low on Thursday night after a loss to the Clippers when he had it out with a reporter over his “expectations” coming to LA. Amid Westbrook’s inability to produce […]

Edmonton Oilers star Connor McDavid is the greatest player in the NHL, hands down. He’s the reigning MVP and a future Hall of Famer. Well, he’s now made a business move that no other athlete in North America has done. Not even LeBron James or Patrick Mahomes. McDavid is the first active athlete to partner […]

The Los Angeles Lakers currently have 27 wins. There have been worse teams in purple in gold in the past. Just in the last eight years, the franchise has had four teams with 27 wins or less for the season. But this current iteration seems to be emanating a different kind of stink. Admittedly, the […]

The Los Angeles Lakers are an abomination in a contender’s clothing right now. It’s different when it’s a bad team playing poorly. They’re expected to lose. But the league’s marquee franchise with two former MVPs in LeBron James and Russell Westbrook isn’t supposed to be this bad. That’s why their meltdown has been so highly […]

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is widely considered one of the greatest to ever do it. Some believe Michael Jordan is the GOAT, while others would pick The King. Nevertheless, the 37-year-old believes he doesn’t get enough recognition when it comes to the best scorers of all time. LeBron recently passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to […]

Isaiah Thomas is officially back in the NBA again. The former two-time All-Star was given another opportunity by the Charlotte Hornets after they decided to sign Thomas to a 10-day contract earlier in the week. Thomas made his Hornets debut on Wednesday and while he didn’t exactly come out with a mind-blowing performance for his […]

Draymond sounded off about the Lakers being booed by their fans 😳 (via @TheVolumeSports) pic.twitter.com/10Q43gTZhH — NBA […]

For those who were born in the 1980s then the name Macy Gray should, at the very least, ring a bell. As for the younger folks out there who have no idea who she is, Gray is an American R&B star (or maybe she was) who rose to fame in the late 90s. The 54-year-old […]

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has pretty much done it all throughout what has been an illustrious 18-year career. As a matter of fact, right now, he’s still doing mind-boggling things at the age of 37. So what keeps LeBron James motivated? Well, the Lakers talisman recently came to a confession about using his […]

It’s been almost two years since the Los Angeles Lakers won an NBA title in the Orlando Bubble but if you’re asking Hall of Famer Reggie Miller, that really didn’t mean much. Miller, who was on the TNT broadcast on Thursday night as the Clippers beat the Lakers, insinuated the bubble in 2020 where LA […]

Back in 2010, LeBron James emerged as the sporting world’s ultimate supervillain after he decided to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers to form an unprecedented Big 3 with the Miami Heat. This is exactly why a lot of folks were happy to see them lose in the NBA Finals in LeBron’s first year with the team. […]

One of the coldest clips you’ll ever see of Kobe Bryant was when Matt Barnes faked a pass right in front of his face during an inbound play. The two players were talking smack at that time and what stood out the most was when the Los Angeles Lakers legend didn’t even flinch as Barnes […]

The free-falling Los Angeles Lakers (27-35) have lost 11 of 14 games as their 37-year old megastar, LeBron James, continues to play through a weary left knee. If the tide doesn’t suddenly shift, Lakers fans will soon ask, if they haven’t already: Uh…why? https://open.spotify.com/episode/1bS8UiZo3SFCm4SvDh5uv5?si=d7469d9b5d424eb3 You don’t have to squint to read the tea leaves and […]

And this point in his career, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar has a really good […]

LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Lakers had a comeback in mind against Tyronn Lue‘s Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday night. LeBron James’ squad came back from down 17 points in the first half to trail by just three at halftime with, essentially, their season on the line. Reggie Jackson had other ideas. The veteran guard […]

LOS ANGELES — LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are quickly falling in the Western Conference standings, and the team’s latest loss to the Los Angeles Clippers was just another example of their epic failure in 2021-22.

Not a lot has gone right for the Los Angeles Lakers this season. The team sits at 27-35, on the verge of missing the Play-In game. However, head coach Frank Vogel isn’t going to place blame on two members of the 2003(!) draft class: LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. After the Lakers were trounced by […]

This has been a disastrous season for the Los Angeles Lakers. There’s no other way around it. When you have LeBron James on your team, anything other than a Finals appearance is a failure. Failing to make the playoffs? That’s basically akin to catastrophe for any LeBron team. In LeBron’s tenure in LA, the Lakers […]

Bam Adebayo has been a revelation for the Miami Heat. The former lottery pick has developed into one of the most versatile big men in the league, with the ability to do most things on the court. He’s a big reason why his team is currently in the running to be the best team in […]

With the Los Angeles Lakers continuing to spiral this season, superstar LeBron James might be looking elsewhere for some inspiration. Maybe a lot of inspiration. Well, he might have found one at the NFL Combine. The Lakers forward found himself being in awe of the time of Ohio State wide receiver Chris Olave in the […]

Jason Kidd and the Dallas Mavericks further added to the misery of the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday after the Mavs took a 109-104 victory over a hapless LA side in their own home court. The Lakers put in a major effort to climb back from a huge deficit in the third quarter — they […]

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are in the midst of a disappointing campaign where they’re currently 27-34 and out of the playoff picture, which means the team will have to go through the play-in tournament. It’s now even got to the point where their own fans are booing them at Crypto.com Arena. That […]

The Los Angeles Lakers continue to struggle as they enter the second half of the NBA season. Stars like LeBron James and Anthony Davis have missed game time recently due to injuries, and the team hasn’t won back-to-back games since the beginning of January. Regardless of injuries, the Lakers are stacked with stars, including Russell […]

Moments before the 2021-22 Los Angeles Lakers snapped their team photo after practice on Wednesday, LeBron James happened to strike an accidentally telling pose that perfectly encapsulated their season. The 2021-22 Lakers, via their IG story pic.twitter.com/vyPCIwbPb2 — Michael Corvo (@michaelcorvo_) March 3, 2022 You’ll notice, LeBron and Anthony Davis were front and almost center […]

Shaquille O’Neal and Dwyane Wade had no problem about the Los Angeles Lakers losing to the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday. However, what they didn’t like is that LeBron James and company had no fight in them for the majority of the contest. In Shaq’s eye, the Lakers simply quit. “You gotta at least put more […]

The struggles of the Los Angeles Lakers this season have been well-documented. Such is the plight of one of the most high-profile franchises in all of sports, in that everything they do is placed under the microscope — particularly when a team has been this bad. As it turns out, however, the Lakers remain confident […]

Prior to Tuesday’s loss to the Dallas Mavericks, LeBron James was tagged as questionable to even suit up for the Los Angeles Lakers due to some soreness on his left knee. He ended up starting for the Lakers despite the injury, which has been the case for pretty much the entire year for LeBron. James […]

The Russell Westbrook experiment has not paid off for the Los Angeles Lakers, with the team’s struggles reaching a fever pitch coming out of the All-Star break. Frank Vogel’s squad is currently seven games under .500 with a 27-34 record, good for the ninth spot in the Western Conference. It’s evident that chemistry is still […]

When any team is struggling to win games, no matter the sport, the pressure is always going to fall on the head coach. That’s been the exact case for Los Angeles Lakers boss Frank Vogel, who has faced his fair share of criticism amid the squad’s dismal campaign. Well, it appears the Lakers weren’t even […]

The Los Angeles fell to 27-34 on Tuesday night after losing for the third game in a row, this time to the Dallas Mavericks. As of right now, the squad sits in ninth place, which means they’d have to advance to the playoffs through the play-in. Nevertheless, LeBron James and Co. believe the postseason can […]

Another night, another loss for the slumping Los Angeles Lakers. Despite making an impressive comeback in the third quarter, the Lakers eventually failed to buckle down in the final period as Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks handed them a third-straight loss. While LeBron James certainly did his part, Russell Westbrook struggled again as he […]

The Los Angeles Lakers have lost three games in a row and sit a season-worst 27-34. Anthony Davis is weeks away from returning. Yet, LeBron James isn’t quite ready to throw in the towel. Even if he feels like — in his words – “poop.” LeBron and the Lakers fell to the Dallas Mavericks, 109-104, […]

The Los Angeles Lakers’ embarrassment tour continued yesterday night at the hands of the Dallas Mavericks. Although LA only lost by a score of 109-104, their abysmal first-half effort put them in a hole as big as 21 points on their home turf. Los Angeles being able to pull itself back into the game and […]

It’s not a good sign that the Los Angeles Lakers have been asked about their reactions to displeased fans at Crypto.com Arena more than wins on their home court. Then again, the former has become the more common occurrence, as of late. Unlike in recent losses to the New York Knicks, Milwaukee Bucks, and New […]

It’s pretty hard to root for the Los Angeles Lakers this season.

And while there are […]

It’s no secret that the Los Angeles Lakers have had a shockingly poor campaign. They have been riddled with injuries, which has led to chemistry and continuity problems. The Big Three of LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Russell Westbrook have not panned out due to their injuries and inability to gain traction together. Davis is […]

The month of February hasn’t been kind to Los Angeles Lakers owner Jeanie Buss. First, there was LeBron James voicing out several eyebrow-raising comments during All-Star Weekend. Then there was the embarrassing blowout against the New Orleans Pelicans that saw her exit the game well before it was over. And of course, the Lakers’ season […]

The Los Angeles Lakers couldn’t be in worse shape right now. They’re six games under .500 at 27-33 and in ninth place in the West. Even worse, LA is going to be without star big man Anthony Davis for another four weeks due to a foot injury. Things have got to a point where the […]
