The Los Angeles Lakers once again find themselves with an unimpressive record as they approach the halfway point of the NBA season.
Just like last year, the purple and gold showed some promise to open the season. They started the year at 5-5, showing some fight against some of the top teams in the league. Unfortunately, just like past years injuries and inconsistency led to the team hitting rock bottom.
Since dropping to the depths of the Western Conference there’s been a lot of noise around the team. From LaVar Ball comments about the team, fans calling to move on from players and Luke Walton, to the inevitable trade rumors that surface, it’s hard to tune all of it out.
