They was adamant that LeBron couldn't fit and that the Lakers were better off without him. But purposely failed to realize that LeBron is the most versatile player to ever touch a basketball and was gonna adjust to the situation as he's literally been doin for the last 23 years. pic.twitter.com/YjOc6w7bBS— Lakeshow

Luka was asked to make an MVP case for himself like Wemby, he brushed it off saying he doesn’t vote for that award and he’s “playing pretty good”.Doncic seems to have his eyes on a bigger, more objective trophy 🏆👀(via @ohnohedidnt24) pic.twitter.com/oeEhiDPhsO— Lakers Lead (@LakersLead) April 1, 2026

Tim Legler on Luka Doncic for MVP: "I got him as the favorite right now. It's 57.4 points per game, direct offense from Luka scoring or assisting. That is the most by any player in the history of this league in one season. I don't think anybody has grabbed control of the MVP." pic.twitter.com/RuDOSj75xA— FooledByNico

5 Things: Finding Some Grit
65 games in and the team is starting to look a little sterner, little grittier. One of the ugliest first halves I’ve seen since the 90’s man. The win was one of the more impressive of the season, in my opinion. 1) Luka finding solace on the court. Sounds like his personal life has been […]

NBA Observations- Big Money Spent For The Clippers And Heat, Are The Lakers Next?
The guys from the Lakers Fast Break return for some NBA Observation as they share thoughts on the recent big-money extensions for Miami coach Erik Spoelstra and the Clipper’s Kawhi Leonard. Does this mean the Lakers will be opening up their wallet a little more as well? Plus after Toronto Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic’s huge rant after the Lakers game because of the fourth-quarter free throw disparity, we ponder if Darvin Ham will ever show that kind of energy if he remains as the guys on the sidelines for LA.

Just like I thought it would go. Great game from Deandre. Might have been his best as a Laker. He was unstoppable on the boards. I’m starting to think Ayton and Hayes might be a championship center rotation. Certainly outplayed what many think is the NBA’s best front court.
