Susan Reeves+FollowCeltics Shakeup: Lakers’ Golden Opportunity?Big news in the NBA’s fiercest rivalry: Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck is stepping down earlier than planned, with Bill Chisholm taking over after the $6.1B sale. Under Grousbeck, Boston was rock solid—two titles, including the 2024 banner that put them ahead of the Lakers. Now, with Boston entering uncharted territory, Lakers Nation should be pumped. With King James entering his record 23rd season and Luka locked in, LA’s stability could be the edge they need to even up the banner count. Thoughts on how this will impact the rivalry? #Sports #Basketball #LakersNation00Share
Beth Holland+FollowThe 2025 Cavs Recorded the 3rd-Best Playoff Net Rating of the CenturyThe best playoff net ratings this century: 2001 Lakers: +13.7 2017 Warriors: +13.5 2025 Cavaliers: +12.1 Yes, really. Cleveland beat Miami so badly in Round 1 that, even after losing their second-round series in five, they still ended up with the third-best playoff net rating of the century. Does it mean anything? Who knows. But it’s a wild stat. #NBA #Cavs #NBAPlayoffs #BasketballStats #NBATrivia #LakersNation #DubNation #Sports 10Share

Robert Johansson+FollowCould Luka Snatch MVP This Season?With MVP fatigue potentially setting in for Jokic, SGA, and Giannis, Luka Dončić might be in prime position to take the award, especially if he gets back to his dominant 2024 form.

Beth Holland+FollowLeBron’s 23rd Season Prep: Sumo Squats & DeadliftsLeBron James is heading into his 23rd NBA season — an insane feat in itself — and he’s still putting in serious work in the gym. LeBron’s offseason grind shows no signs of slowing down. These compound lifts are known for building raw strength, improving explosiveness, and maintaining lower-body power. They are crucial for staying competitive in late 30s and beyond. But with the wear-and-tear of over two decades in the league, is heavy lifting still the best approach for a player with this much mileage? What do you think, is this the secret to his longevity? #LeBronJames #NBAOffseason #StrengthTraining #GOATDebate #MyNBAGOAT #Basketball #Deadlifts #SumoSquats #Longevity #NBA #Sports #Lakers #LakersNation 72Share

moonlitMystique+FollowWhy did we ever trade Zubac for Muscala?Watching Muscala land a coaching gig with the Suns just twists the knife. Lakers fans, how did we let Zubac—now a defensive anchor for the Clippers—walk for a guy who barely cracked the rotation and never moved the needle? Muscala’s Lakers stint was a ghost town, and now he’s coaching a Suns squad in shambles while Zubac keeps shining. That trade still haunts us. Was this Pelinka’s worst move, or does the Westbrook fiasco still top it? #Sports #Basketball #LakersNation00Share
