Classy Lakers blog

by Lunchbox Daddy on Mar 9, 2010 9:45 PM PST

This is from the Laker's SB nation blog. They're currently down 5 against the raptors with 8:52 remaining. Please. If there is a God, let them lose this game.

The Los Angeles Lakers currently find themselves in an unfamiliar situation, losers of 3 straight games. That hasn't happened since ~~the Reagan adminisitration~~ early 2008.

Thankfully for them, the losing streak is likely to come to an end. Tonight, the Lakers host the Toronto Raptors, and the Raptors seem custom made to help the Lakers get their groove back. You don't like the Lakers' 3 game skid? The Raptors have lost 5 of their last 6 coming in. 4 of those losses were by double digits, and the most recent one came at the hands of the 76ers ... in Toronto. You want to see the Lakers execute well on offense? Enter the worst defensive team in the league, by far, giving up nearly 1.5 more points per 100 posessions than any other team in the NBA. Worried about the Lakers being bullied? Toronto has one of the most finesse oriented front lines around, starting Andrea Bargnani and his 6 rpg at Center. No matter how you look at it, its hard to imagine a world in which 3 straight losses becomes 4 straight for The Lake Show.

exactly what was wrong with this preview?

Firmly in favor of making a coaching change at the end of the season.

There's nothing overly arrogant about this preview.

But I do think it’s weird that the guy who posted this joined bedge today and this is his only post. hmmm.

just because I haven't posted before means I'm ignorant?

I think it’s arrogant because they’re talking about how the Raptors are a completely unworthy opponent who aren’t worth shrugging a shoulder at. Dave never says that about the Blazers. Of course, the Blazers never have a shoe-in win, but as the Lakers proved today, they have to bring it against everyone as well, or they can lose. “Thankfully for them the losing streak is likely coming to an end?” The whole thing is just dripping with gross L*ker-ness.

And I’ve been reading this blog for about 3 years, I just don’t post.

"classy"...

that’d be like saying that blazer fans are in the same general opinion on what is going on with the franchise.
