Deandre Ayton is one of the funniest players in the NBA

Deandre Ayton’s arrival in Los Angeles has brought tons of positives on the court.

JJ Redick explained why Sunday’s game was important for LeBron James

Comments from the Other Side - Lakers 12/5/25

 A win against the Lakers is always a good win.  It's funny that they were whining about JJ not playing Vanderbilt when probably if he did, they would have trashed him like they did everyone else who did play.  It would seem that LeBron isn't all that popular with Lakers fans either.  Still so many comments about Jaylen's hairline.  Lakers fans are really so bad trashing every player on their team.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours?   The B...

Head coach JJ Redick cleared his bench […]
