The Los Angeles Lakers showed the NBA their intentions and are getting trolled for it…
The Anthony Davis negotiations were pretty telling based on their asking price that seems to go up like the National deficit, but the fact that the Lakers actually considered the demands showed plenty not only to the Pelicans but the NBA…
Especially the Pacer faithful who talked the most trash I’ve heard since the Reggie Miller/Spike Lee days back in the 90’s! Just listen to what they had to say to Brandon Ingram while he was on the free throw line…

If you saw the production on the graphic, you can see that Brandon Ingram is averaging 24 points a game in the last four games. Playing well, and having to deal with the heckling from the Indy faithful. This is starting to become a joke.
By the way Ingram came out strong in the first quarter scoring early and doing everything in his power to hold off the inevitable demise in this game. He finished with 12 points and 6 rebounds. He even hit his free throws, knocking down 4-5.
I have to give the Pacers crowd credit. They actually do their research before talking their trash. It seems that every player on the Lakers is on the trading block except LeBron James and JaVale McGee. Take a listen to what they have to say when McGee takes his free throws…

In 15 minutes, (Like just 15 minutes!) JaVale McGee made an impact when he could scoring 16 points on an absurd 7-8 from the field. Most of his baskets was of this variety…
JaVale’s minutes at this point just adds fuel to the fire at this point. McGee was one of the very few that competed last night. LeBron didn’t bring the same energy but he played 30 minutes.
The Los Angeles Lakers have gone through some things in the last five years and at times it has been ugly, but this is embarrassing. If the Lakers think this is bad, boy the reception in Boston will be worth the price of admission. Kyrie Irving being linked to the Lakers rumors will make this treatment sound like a bedtime lullaby.
