Laker Nation

Well, it's that time of the year again. The playoff push is in full-swing around the league, the post-ASG lull is wearing off, and the Lakers have only one regular season task left to accomplish: Home-court advantage throughout. Don't have a heart attack.

Here's what you may have missed during the week on the Lakers Nation...

The Lakers opened up the week in Portland with a game that won't be forgotten for quite some time. Maybe it will be known as a bed wetting, maybe a lack of restraint, maybe even an emotional turning point...

Short week. Short Intro. Congo Cash, baby. Let's get into it...

In a week that started with Kobe Bryant's succession of Elgin Baylor for #20 on the NBA all-time scoring books, you would think smooth sailing was ahead for the Lakers.

Fresh off one of the biggest weeks we could possibly imagine, there was a sneaking suspicion a letdown was in sight. The Lakers managed to take down Oklahoma City in a game that was a little too close for comfort, but a win is a win in the NBA. They then traveled to Utah on just about as tough of [...]

Just when you though the chips were down in Laker Land, the boys quelled all preconceived notions with on of the biggest weeks in recent memory.

“Kam Pashai thinks that Andrew’s MRI results are more important than the SuperBowl tomorrow.” That’s a Facebook status update from TLN’s Creative Director, Kam Pashai last night. Sadly, despite what went on in the week, those words ring all too true for fans today. The Lakers opened the week with a strong performance against San Antonio only to hit a [...]

On the heels of some tough losses, it's safe to say the Lakers handled their business this week. Three comfortable wins give way to today's match-up with the Spurs. Here's everything that happened in between...

It was another busy week in the Nation and the Lakers definitely felt it...

'Twas a busy week of Lakers basketball, but after last week it was great to get back into the routine. Let's wrap it up with the first ever installment of TLN's Week in Review...

First off, I know losing in the NBA Finals was painful for all of us. But, who really expected us to be here in October? For now lets just say the journey has begun, not ended. With that said, we do have some roster moves that we need to figure out for the off-season. Sasha Vujacic and Ronny Turiaf will [...]

For the most part it was pretty much unwatchable, seeing as it contained what could arguably be the worst officiating I have seen in recent memory. It was truly unreal. I can’t even really even begin to describe it. The Celtics shot 28 more free throws than the Lakers. To give them credit, Boston did play very good defense, but [...]

The game started with the Lakers coming out real strong on all aspects of the game. They were making buckets, playing excellent defense, and making all the hustle plays that they were generally not really making throughout the playoffs. I mean, the Lakers had something like 14 second chance points in the first quarter! I think that was probably double [...]
