LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Time to Shelve Kobe?
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/04/time-to-shelve-kobe.html
April 19, 2012. Time to Shelve Kobe? As of this writing, Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant. Has missed the team's last six games to rest his injured shin. During that stretch, the Lakers have won four, with those games coming from a winning streak. Now the big question: Should the Lakers shelve Kobe for the rest of the season? I say "YES," with a blaring megaphone. Have notably stepped up their games in Kobe's absence and it even gave long-time bench regular Devin Ebanks. Technorati: Los Angeles Lakers.

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Lakers Fail in Game 3 against Nuggets
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/05/lakers-fail-in-game-3-against-nuggets.html
May 5, 2012. Lakers Fail in Game 3 against Nuggets. Argh, I knew it. I had an inkling that the Los Angeles Lakers. Would drop Game 3 of their first-round NBA playoff match-up against the Denver Nuggets. The Lakers were vulnerable in Denver in the regular season and I was somewhat anticipating some sort of struggle in the series swing to the Mile High City. I've even blogged about what the Lakers should do to win Game 3. But things didn't pan out- the Lakers lost 99-84. Avoid the speed trap. The Lakers we...

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Lakers Get Blasted by Thunder in Game 1
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/05/lakers-get-blasted-by-thunder-in-game-1.html
May 15, 2012. Lakers Get Blasted by Thunder in Game 1. Somewhere in Oklahoma City, Derek Fisher is smiling. In Game 1 of the Los Angeles Lakers. Vs Oklahoma City Thunder, the Lakers lost in humbling fashion to a team that's well-rested and very eager to exact revenge- Fisher included. Can the Lakers even the series in Game 2? I think so, but this has to do with more perfect execution on the defensive side, such as:. Preventing Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook open looks 15 feet from the rim. Vs Oklahom...

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Bynum's Back!
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/01/bynums-back.html
January 1, 2012. So this is what the Los Angeles Lakers. Returned from a four-game suspension to power the Lakers over the Denver Nuggets and he played big. Bynum scored a team-high 29 points and grabbed 13 rebounds, along with a pair of blocked shots. Said that he wasn't going to ease Bynum in and was stayed true to his word. He allotted 32 minutes of playing time for the returning big man and this had effect on the Lakers prior rotation in their firs four games. This meant Josh McRoberts. But Bynum's d...

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Dwight Howard to The Lakers, Part 2
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/01/dwight-howard-to-lakers-part-2.html
January 3, 2012. Dwight Howard to The Lakers, Part 2. A week into the 2011-2012 NBA season and the Los Angeles Lakers. Are a .500 team. While that seems pretty forgivable in the post-lockout context, it's quite unacceptable given the team's talent and history. The Lakers are considered contenders, but not favorites to win the NBA crown. I feel they need a legitimate presence on both ends to improve their chances to a title. Enter Dwight Howard. Los Angeles Lakers get Dwight Howard and Chris Duhon. This i...

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Lakers Squander Game 2 vs. Thunder
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/05/lakers-squander-game-2-vs-thunder.html
May 18, 2012. Lakers Squander Game 2 vs. Thunder. Seven points. Two minutes. Usually, when those two are said in the same sentence, it usually means the winning team preserved the lead and kept the loser at bay. However, Game 2 of the Los Angeles Lakers. Vs Oklahoma City Thunder Western Conference Semi-Finals, it was not the usual ending. The bad thing is that the Lakers were the ones that squandered the lead in the final two minutes and ended up in a 0-2 hole against the up-and-coming Thunder. It's easy...

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Lakers On the Verge of An Epic Playoff Meltdown
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/05/lakers-on-verge-of-epic-playoff.html
May 11, 2012. Lakers On the Verge of An Epic Playoff Meltdown. Just last week ago, the Hoops world was already anticipating a massive matchup between you and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Now, you're just one loss away from repeating the 2006 playoff debacle where you squandered a 3-1 series lead. What the heck happened to your defense? In Games 5 and 6, you let the Denver Nuggets score an average of 107.5 points on 49% shooting. (And people say playoff basketball is more grind it out). The Big Laker Fan.

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Lakers Fail to Close Out Nuggets in Game 5
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/05/lakers-fail-to-close-out-nuggets-in.html
May 9, 2012. Lakers Fail to Close Out Nuggets in Game 5. OK, fine. I was wrong. I predicted a 4-1 series win for the Los Angeles Lakers. But JaVale Mcgee and Andre Miller of the Denver Nuggets had a different idea of how the first reound series would go. A furious fourth quarter rally and Kobe Bryant. S 43 points weren't enough to lift the Lakers in their fifth game against Nuggets, losing 102-99 in Los Angeles. And get me going about Andrew Bynum. S statement about "easy" close-out games:. McGee and Mil...

May 8, 2012. Dagger 3's Sink Nuggets in Game 4. The Los Angeles Lakers. Bounced back from a terrible playoff loss. To win Game 4 with the help from a couple of key three-pointers in the final minute. Laker point guards Steve Blake. Both hit dagger three's that eventually made the difference in the tightly contested Game 4. That game saw several lead changes throughout and neither team controlled till the final stretch. Who got double-double (12 points, 11 rebounds) off the bench. The Los Angeles Lakers.

LA Lakers Fan Blog - Big Lakers Fan: Odds Not in Lakers' Favor
http://biglakersfan.blogspot.com/2012/05/odds-not-in-lakers-favor.html
May 21, 2012. Odds Not in Lakers' Favor. Down 1-3, the odds are not looking good for the Los Angeles Lakers. The last time the Lakers were down 1-3, they succumbed to the Boston Celtics in the 2008 NBA Finals. If you ask me, this version of the Lakers team has yet to show a fight when down that deep. In this Western Semi-Final against the much improved Oklahoma City Thunder, I foresee a similar ending in the 2008 Finals. In any case, the quest for the franchise's 17th championship and Kobe Bryant. The la...
