The story from the Los Angeles Lakers’ loss:

This is game two and this writer has written the Los Angeles Lakers off for winning a championship! 

Look, folks, it’s over. The Lakers are in trouble and deep down they know it. This is a scene of implosion folks.

Lake Show Life spent the entire preseason spelling out every defensive breakdown that led them to six straight losses. The perimeter defense was bad before the injuries and now that THT, Kendrick Nunn and Trevor Ariza is out, it is now a train wreck.

This is a product of Chris Paul putting on a Broadway show breaking down the Lakers’ defense. When he sat down, Cameron Payne picked up where CP3 left off. Until Frank Vogel (He is a defensive coach right?) or someone besides the Lake Show Life staff decides to mention the horrid defense this team is playing, this team will have more incidents like this.

Okay, Rajon Rondo might get fined for this…

Let’s see…a gun gesture to an NBA fan. Granted the fan might have said something because he got kicked out but seriously? With this embarrassing display from these players, it is clear that…

Let’s keep this simple…Frank Vogel has to go!

This is the second game of the season played in front of a capacity crowd on national television and players are getting physical on the sideline? Getting into confrontations with fans? Who’s leading this bunch?

Frank Vogel lost this team as soon as Andre Drummond was put in the starting lineup LAST YEAR! Now things are getting worse. It’s time for David Fizdale to take this team over!

Take that to data!!!
