YESSSS THE LAKERS WON!
Now go on a winning streak Lakers.
Not likely. 3 out of the next 4 games are against the Spurs(2) and Cavs. The other is @Indy. I don't see a winnable game in their near future.
I know ...it's a shame ....just as they were starting to enjoy winning.
Their fan base is very mixed about tanking. Their old school fans are used to winning ways and want to enjoy winning as many games as possible . Losing is NOT good for Lakers giant TV contracts , TV ratings , fan appeal , etc . The FO just can't tank as easy as some teams. To,much backlash . Lakers history has very little tanking overall. ....compared to Hornets , Minny , Cavs , that group of consistent lottery bound teams .
