Last Years Record: 42-40 Key Additions: Derek Fisher;
getting rid of Smush Parker (a clear case of
addition by subtraction); Javaris Crittenton Jean Dixon couldn’t predict what will happen to this year’s Lakers, so let’s just try to answer ...
You'll never look at Lamar Odom the same.
44. That’s how many shots Kobe took to
score 48 points in the circus ring known as
Key Arena Monday night. Was it too many? Is the sky falling? Has my agent called me back? Here are the Lakers individual offensive stats from the contest: ...
Previously unheralded outside of hardcore hoops circles, Tom
Thibodeau is now being feted as a defensive genius
and the architect behind the resurgence of the Boston Celtics. As Karl Rove was to GWB, TT is to Doc Rivers. How else do you explain it? A ...
Rather than a post about my 12-team trade
that would get the Lakers Jermaine O’Neal — and
they only have to give up a rack of basketballs and two Laker girls to be named later — regular poster Renato Afonso sent in a very good breakdown of the ...
Phil Jackson met with the media on Friday
in advance of Lakers camp opening next Tuesday, and
as you expect from Phil he said a few interesting things. If you want to watch the entire press conference, the always on it guys at Lakers.com have the ...
I think one thing most Lakers fans agree
on is that the small forward position will be
key for next year’s Lakers. Where the disagreement is exactly how to deal with that. But some think they have the answer. On this blog, in Lakers forums ...
Sparked by emailed questions and conversations with people
in the business of NBA information, I’m using the
All-Star Break to look at some bigger picture questions about NBA blogging. Today the post talks about the growth of NBA blogs and why ...
Sitting watching another night of the US Open
tennis tournament—seeing Andy Roddick play the best tennis he
could and still get swept by Roger Federer — I started thinking about what tennis player equated to what NBA player. So, for fun I started ...

FB+G takes a look at the Lakers' summer-league
stats and breaks down what they mean for the
team's future.
As I said before, this blog entered a
hypothetical bidding war with the Celtics and the Bulls
for the rights to KG. This was really a group effort, my original proposal changed dramatically after reading at your comments, seeing your votes and...
The Lakers have been freefall for a few
weeks and it has exposed a few things. It
exposed just how much damage the injuries have done to this team. It’s exposed players to roles that don’t suit them. And it has exposed some weaknesses in Phil ...
Most teams go to camp with a pretty
good idea of who the starting five will be,
and I think most Laker fans thought they knew too — Fisher, Bryant, Walton, Odom and Bynum (or, maybe Brown). But a new idea that fits with the team’s focus on ...

Well, we don’t have Brian Cook to kick
around any more. The Lakers traded two for one
, giving up Mo Evans and Brian Cook to get former UCLA Bruin Trevor Ariza. This trade strikes me as a win for the Lakers, I’ll miss the consistency of Evans ...
It’s been the question in the comments recently
— start Bynum or bring him off the bench?
He’s the best offensive center the Lakers have by far, and plays good defense for the most part (opposing centers are shooting just 37.5% and have a PER ...

All-Star Break to look at some bigger picture questions about NBA blogging. Today’s topic: How credible are blogs? And how NBA teams are ...
Some assorted thoughts from Game One, we’ll break
down the details in the coming days: • I
enjoyed that game because I enjoy watching two teams that know how to pass. That was smart hoops. • I also said this series was about defense — ...
I think the best way to start a
look at the off-season and any potential moves is
to see what you’ve got. So what follows is a break-down of the Lakers roster by position going into next year, with a few comments after each player (some longer than ...
