The forecast: First place

Posted from Lakers Blog 4 hours ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

Not sure that qualifies as actual "weather," but it does represent a preseason poll taken of various ESPN folks. The question: How do you picture the West shaking out next season? The general consensus: With the Lakers at the top, sporting 55 wins. Obviously, this opinion is based in part on the not... (original story)

Fast Break Thoughts

Posted from Forum Blue And Gold 1 day 14 hours ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

After a few days going through withdrawals without my laptop, time to clear out the inbox in bullet point form. • There are now 16 Lakers under contract, although not all are guaranteed (Crawford and Karl, for example). As reported in the OC Register today, Kupchak plans to bring 18 players to cam... (original story)

Kupchak watches Drew with his own eyes

Posted from Lakers Blog 1 day 15 hours ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

And likes what he sees. Not content to rely on a game of telephone for his info, Mitch Kupchak hopped a flight to Atlanta for a closer look at Andrew Bynum's workout regimen, which includes running, weights and roundball drills. The bird's eye view has left the Lakers GM with no worries over Drew's ... (original story)

No Purple, Gold and Blue today

DailyHoops : LA Lakers

Sorry for the late notice. There's a technical test of sorts that unfortunately needed to be scheduled during our time slot. Nothing we or the NowLive folks can do about it. But we'll be back on Sept. 3rd. Until then, figure out another way to waste time at work for an hour on the company's dime. AK (original story)

Maybe Ronny can run the point up north

Posted from Lakers Blog 2 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

This ain't no good for Golden State. No Monta Ellis until (generously) late-November after suffering severe high ankle sprain that will include a session under the knife. For a team that's already bubblish-at-best in most people's eyes (or mine, if nothing else) when it comes to assessing Western Co... (original story)

Joe Crawford: Inked

Posted from Lakers Blog 2 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

As in "officially," I was just informed by the Lakers Media Relations department. Of course, there's a big difference between being a late second round draft pick with a non-guaranteed contract and a late second round draft pick who's actually on the team. For the time being, I'm still thinking he w... (original story)

He got one from us for the NBA season, now Kobe gets one for his showing in Beijing from David Friedman at 20 Second Timeout. I'm talking about a straight "A." "...Team USA came up short in the three previous major FIBA competitions (2004 Olympics, 2006 and 2002 FIBA World Championship) primarily be... (original story)

DailyHoops : LA Lakers

(UPDATE: Talk about your fantastic timing. I just got an email from the Lakers Media Relations Dept. Yue is now officially under contract. It's a "multi-year" deal, which I'm guessing means "a pair of years." More details as they come, but that news was awfully convenient in arrival). Laker-to-be (p... (original story)

What Can/Should We Expect?

Posted from Forum Blue And Gold 4 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

It’s about five weeks until the Lakers head into training camp. Five weeks with really no basketball to speak of as we watch the start of football (both American and in Europe) and writers and bloggers start working on team previews. And when those previews come out, a lot of people are going to p... (original story)

There's gold in them thar hills!

Posted from Lakers Blog 5 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

Team USA's mission was to bring a gilded medallion from China home to the states. Said mission was accomplished last night (this morning, if you're watching on American TV) with a 118-107 victory over Spain. It was considered a foregone destiny by many heading into tourney that the Redeem Team (meh,... (original story)

"AK/BK - How about a Happy Birthday thread/blog for KOBE BEAN BRYANT!?!?" Ask and ye shall receive. Happy 30th birthday to Kobe Bryant. I'm guessing he hopes the gift bounty includes some gold bling to go along with this complimentary column from Yahoo's Adrian Wojnorowski. AK (original story)

Gold Medal Game Time

Posted from Forum Blue And Gold 6 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

Here’s my prediction — not only is the USA going to win the gold in Beijing, it will win it in London in 2012, too. I’ll explain the second prediction first. One thing has been pretty clear in these Olympics and said by Kelly Dwyer among others — the USA is the best NBA-style team [...] (original story)

Is it safe?

Posted from Lakers Blog 7 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

Given the vagaries and inconsistencies of NBC's television schedule for Olympic coverage, it's been tough to post results of Team USA's work on the hardwood without the risk of playing spoiler. And given how much I hate spoilers- in the age of the Internet, texting, Twitter, and beyond, anyone who c... (original story)

USA vs. Argentina, and the Semis

Posted from Forum Blue And Gold 8 days ago
DailyHoops : LA Lakers

I think my premise here is pretty simple: Argentina may well give the USA their toughest test to date, but I don’t think Argentina can beat the USA unless the Americans help out. A few thoughts to flesh that out. Argentina will try to slow the game down (the USA is at 81 possessions per game, fast... (original story)
