Laker Nation

Not even 38 points from Kobe Bryant or a double-double from both Dwight Howard and Steve Nash could help the Lakers fend off the Chris Paul-led Clippers.

The Lakers' defense continues to elude them and the Philadelphia 76ers took advantage.

Dwight Howard led the way on defense and Steve Nash guided the offense - it was a wire to wire victory for the Lakers to end the year.

The Lakers were lifeless defensively once again as the Nuggets out-hustled them for a 126 - 114 victory.

The Lakers 5-game winning streak comes to an end as they fall to the Denver Nuggets, 126-114. Not even Kobe Bryant's 40 points could keep secure a victory.

What a difference a Nash makes. The Lakers get their fifth win in a row against the hot New York Knicks.

Laker Nation finally enjoys a Christmas victory as the Lakers defeat the Knicks.

The Lakers win their fourth game in a row, coming back from a 14-point fourth quarter deficit in Steve Nash's return. Kobe Bryant continues his scoring run with 34 points.

The Charlotte Bobcats brought their 11 game losing streak into Staples, and it took nothing short of a furious run by the Lakers to fend them off, 101-100.

The Lakers make things harder than they should have been, but they are still able to pull out a victory against the Bobcats.

Two wins in a row for these Lakers, and though it’s nothing relatively impressive, we’ve learned this season that we must appreciate small glories, and a two-win streak is just that.

A win is a win, and the Lakers finally got one in Washington, bringing their season record to 10 - 14.

Smiling faces - all it took was a victory. No matter the opponent…no matter the arena – when you’ve lost four in a row like the Lakers have, getting any win means something.

In their fourth loss in a row, the Lakers, again, fell behind to start the game, and had no choice but to play catch-up to give themselves a chance to win.
