With 7:24 remaining in the fourth quarter of last night's 110-99 win over the New Orleans Hornets, contest well in hand, Adam Morrison held the ball at the top of the circle, surveying the court to see what was developing. Nobody immediately open, shot clock ticking down and the Staples faithful ...

The Lakers, who have been actively campaigning to get Shannon Brown a slot in this year's dunk contest during All Star weekend, have launched a pretty slick website to drum up support- www.LetShannonDunk.com. There's also a pretty cool YouTube channel to go with it, filled with highlights and ...

Tuesday night at Staples, the Lakers welcomed another substandard squad (the New Orleans Hornets) into the building, and once again dispatched them with little problem (a 20 point lead at the half) en route to another double digit, taco-laden win. You've been reading a lot of this book lately, ...

I'm not sure that lighting does me any favors. Anyway, the breakdown, plus heaps of video, is below... BK Three Good: -Andrew Bynum: One sign a player had a good night? Part of his postgame interview centers around trying to figure out exactly what went wrong on his one miss from the floor. ...

It's a different Hornets team without Chris Paul, no question. For one thing, GM/coach Jeff Bower is giving much more burn to a rookie backcourt of Darren Collison and Marcus Thornton than Byron Scott ever did. Neither makes up for CP3, but it's unquestionably a more vibrant combination than ...

Apropos of nada relating at all to the Lakers, but nonetheless pretty awesome: a video clip of the Miami Heat roster from the team's official website. It's a seriously slick presentation, combining Blue Note-style visuals, James Brown and the NBA. That's a solid "you had me at hello" formula for ...

The Lake Show is fresh off a 106-87 win over the New Jersey Nets, pushing their record to a robust 13-3. Said triumph represented the sixth in succession achieved via a double digit margin. With Pau Gasol back in the fold, they're more or less at full strength and putting up impressive numbers. ...

First things first, he's not going anywhere. I'd be shocked- I'm talking flying-hippos-Best Picture-nomination- for-Ninja Assassins-Supreme Court-appointment-for-Ron Jeremy shocked- if Kobe Bryant's next contract wasn't inked with the Los Angeles Lakers, but the how and when is still a little ...

That's the first quarter point differential for the Lakers in five games since Pau Gasol returned from him hamstring injury. Don't get hung up on the fact only one in that quintet of opponents- the 9-8 Oklahoma City Thunder- is currently above .500. It doesn't diminish the trend. (Raise your ...

I have to figure the New Jersey board of Tourism doesn't appreciate this. Already one of the more frequently mocked states in our union, the Garden State is now saddled with a historically bad basketball team after the Nets were thoroughly (and predictably) dominated by the Lakers Sunday night ...

League rules mandated 48 minutes of basketball had to be played, but practically speaking the Lakers' 106-87 romp over the Nets Sunday night at Staples was over the instant iconic PA announcer Lawrence Tanter introduced Trenton Hassell and Josh Boone as New Jersey's starting small and power ...

Howdy folks. We've still got family in town, and are going to squeeze every ounce of Thanksgiving out of the holiday weekend. As such, no live blog tonight, but things will return to normal for Sunday's game against the Nets, and throughout the rest of the homestand. Thanks! BK

I would totally play this game. (Creative credit goes to A Stern Warning. Thanks to BDL for the heads up.) All joking aside, ain't much in the way of fresh Lakers news, considering they last played on Tuesday and little has since changed (although going on the road for tonight's contest against ...

The tryptophans have been ingested, absorbed, and slept off, but many of us still have another round (or three) of 'em safely stored in the fridge, the better to cap off some post-holiday lounging. Yes, the Friday after Thanksgiving is, for those without the bravery or tolerance to go shopping, ...

Hope everyone had themselves a nice thanksgiving, a wall to wall feast of turkey, stuffing, potatoes and cranberries. If members of the Lakers roster honored the urge to get their grub on, fair enough, because yesterday's practice certainly worked up an appetite. Phil Jackson's annual "Turkey ...
