The bad from the Los Angeles Lakers’ loss:

It’s a real shame Dejounte Murray wasn’t held out for knee soreness like LeBron James!

The first time All-Star was just killing the Los Angeles Lakers. He got into the paint and either scored or set up one of his teammates for layups. he was one of the main reasons the Spurs shot nearly 62 percent from the field in the first half with 42 points in the paint.

He finished with 26 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. His crossover handle shaking down the Lakers was lethal to watch.

Well, we see that he scored on Dwight Howard, let’s get to him, shall we?

Dwight Howard has checked out folks and he’s making this writer look like an idiot!

Understand that Lake Show Life put out an article one week before he was signed THE FIRST TIME begging the Lakers to sign him. Maybe some of the reason was to irritate Lakers fans that couldn’t stand the guy but that’s what this site does sometimes.

It’s official folks. Dwight Howard is cooked. It’s over. Who is he fooling and the way the Spurs had layup lines at times in this game was just embarrassing. All he has to do is provide a rim presence and rebound. He’s not even doing that these days.

The staff of Lake Show Life has a theory but Howard is not helping us out with this listless play. Don’t let the 9 points fool you. This ain’t it.

The Los Angeles Lakers have destroyed Russell Westbrook’s confidence and Frank Vogel should be ashamed!

The fact that the Lakers actually assumed that Russell Westbrook could function with no offensive scheme is a joke. Russ looked lost at times on the floor while just trying to survive in others.

Russ finished with 17 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists. Folks this is amazing if you really think about it.

  • He has a coach that has set him up to fail or can’t coach this roster.
  • He has two superstars in Anthony Davis and LeBron James that did not defend him when he was struggling!  
  • No plays called for him to exercise his strengths.
  • No consistent roles.
  • The franchise releases stories almost on a daily basis. Wanna see one? Keep reading to the next page!

Sure he missed six free throws and had five turnovers, but it’s because he is so deep in his head that his confidence is gone. He is really rushing himself to prove to everyone that he’s still got it. Sadly it’s too late and he needs to got to a franchise that respects players that show up to play every night.

Furthermore, the fact that this franchise has not condemned the death threats sent to Westbrook and his family as told by his wife shows how low this franchise has sunk. Good luck getting another superstar in the next 15 years!
