04.04.20
Not that this is any surprise, but the late, great, Kobe Bryant was elected, along with seven others, to the 2020 class of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. With nothing else to talk about right now with the Lakers, it is nice to have something positive to report, even though the world still misses the Black Mamba. Congrats Kobe!

ESPN: Lakers Hire D’Antoni!
11.12.12

The Lakers hire Mike D’Antoni as their new head coach.
In an unexpected twist, ESPNLA.com is reporting the Lakers have hired Mike D’Antoni, not Phil Jackson, to be their next head coach.
From all accounts Phil was just “asking for the moon” and the Lakers were unable to come to an agreement with him.
For the complete story, check it out at ESPNLA.com.

Lamar Odom to be Named 6th Man of the Year
04.19.11
The Lakers have called a press conference today to announce that Lamar Odom has won the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year Award.
Odom had his best all-around season as a Laker in 2010-11, averaging 14.4 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 3.0 assists predominantly off the bench for the two-time defending NBA champs. He also shot career-highs of 53.0% from the field and 38.2% from the three-point line. Odom started 35 games in the absence of center Andrew Bynum, and is one of six Lakers to play in all 82 regular season games.
It’s the first major award for Odom, who came to the Lakers from the Miami Heat in the Shaquille O’Neal trade in 2004. Always one of the NBA’s most-versatle players, Odom was a starter his entire career before Phil Jackson asked him to move to the bench before the 2008-09 season. He has flourished in the role helping the Lakers win the last two NBA titles.
Odom also becomes the first Laker to win the award.
