Is Russell Westbrook Really A Backup Now?

Has Russell Westbrook fallen that out of favor? Supposedly, new Lakers head coach Darvin Ham is planning on using Russell Westbrook to quarterback the second team for this upcoming season, all but making him a backup. I thought that Russell Westbrook had buddied up with Darvin Ham enough to keep his starting spot. Are you

Vanessa Bryant May Finally Find Peace With $16M Settlement

Vanessa Bryant more than deserves this settlement. Yesterday, a jury awarded Kobe Bryant’s widow, Vanessa Bryant, over $16M in a settlement against Los Angeles County because its firefighters and deputies shared gruesome photos of her husband and daughter’s, Gigi Bryant, deaths. I can’t believe it has taken over TWO YEARS for Vanessa Bryant to get

Patrick Beverley Is Heading Back To LA…But With The Lakers

Finally, the Lakers have done something right this offseason. In a semi-surprising move, the Lakers have acquired former LA Clippers guard Patrick Beverley from the self-destructing Utah Jazz. I didn’t think Rob Pelinka had the ability to make smart decisions in him anymore. The much-maligned Lakers GM has not only made a smart basketball acquisition

LeBron James Is Staying In LA For Another Two Years…But Is It A Mistake?

This decision could end up backfiring on the King. LeBron James has just put pen to paper and signed a new 2-year, $97.1M deal to keep him in Los Angeles. Even though that last year is a player option, I’m not so sure that this was a wise move for LeBron given how awful the

Jerry West Is Right. JJ Redick Hasn’t Earned The Right To Discredit Bob Cousy

A few months ago on First Take, former NBA guard JJ Redick mocked Boston Celtics legend Bob Cousy’s accomplishments by saying that he was “guarded by plumbers and fireman”. Well, LA Lakers great Jerry West clearly didn’t agree as he slammed JJ Reddick’s whole career by essentially calling him a nobody. First off, let me

Lakers “Big 3” Vow To Make Partnership Work Next Season, Do They Not Realize That Dream Is Already Over?

LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, and Anthony Davis apparently have all come together and made a “vow” that they will make their dysfunctional Lakers “Big 3” work next season. Are they just delusional, or do they not realize their “Big 3” is already over? The Los Angeles Lakers had the most disappointing season in NBA regular
