It only looks average because Bryant makes the borderline impossible look easy.

jerdogthompson: mathematically? Really? What you just did was isolate the stat without putting in the context or environmental flavor of the Western Conference. Check out the GB’s of other WC teams. The Lakers are still in the mix. The WC has become highly competitive, it is too early to make a trending statement

I’d assume that advertisers would want their ads on highly trafficked pages, so I’m gonna say yes.

My sentiment too. Add also that ridiculous trash talk term “faker.” Goodness, they need to improve their vocabulary… big time. LOL!

More hits = more income for the website?

The two dudes posting before me hit the nail on the head. If you REALLY hate all the Lakers articles, the best thing you can do about that is not click on them. Also, cbssports.com, theshadowleague.com, and grantland.com are some decent sports sites.

If it bothers you, don’t click on the article, and don’t comment. High page views/high number of comments = more articles.

Sorry, I know what you are trying to say, but that whole “big-boy pants” thing just pisses me off. No Lakers fan should ever mention that insult to Gasol.

I suppose they do it to irritate us, but I learned long ago to take pleasure in their angst. After all, what other city gets to hear the opponent’s fans chanting its name in their own arena? Yeah, they’re also saying “beat” when they say “L.A.,” but no other team gets to hear their name while on the road.

Biggest team in the league? Lmao what a joke. You want to go by rings? Then it’s the Celtics. You want to go by market size and merchandise? It’s the Knicks. You can’t even go by record because their record sucks!
Yes they won 2 years ago, but the Mavs won more recently than that! So again, your argument for Laker relevance is moot because you don’t have one. The ONLY reason they get so many clicks is because they have a “super team” and have been a massive disappointment. They suck this year, get over it.

well said @mancherstermiracle. Too many people going out of their way to hate on an organization that has 16 Rings and counting. Go LAkshow

And they won their last title two years ago. And the year before that. But keep whining about them, it seems to serve you well.

It certainly does tweak your nose out of place. That’s worth it right there.

You don’t HAVE to have anything. Is there someone twisting your arm up behind your back and forcing you to look at this site? They’ve got a gun to your head making you click on Laker articles? Grow up.

shhhhhhh. Lakers are 2-0 with Nash. LA Lakers are big news in a big market. Don’t be mad because you live in Iowa or North Dakota and all you see is Lakers Lakers Lakers on their way to #17

The biggest team in the league, perhaps the biggest egos. Their currently 11th in the West and the countdown to the headline “Lakers mathematically eliminated from playoffs” has begun.

Perhaps they were the biggest 7-8 years ago. Not anymore, not by a very long shot. Keep the faith though it will serve you well I’m certain.

Knicks should have played that one better. Kobe’s backdoor moves are a matter of public record.

Over/under on the number of articles PBT will have on 12/26 about this game: 4.5

Thumbs up for the over, thumbs down for the under.

Writing about the lakers is essential. Showing a video of an above average layup when there are many more excellent plays during each game is not essential.

2 of the last 10 articles are about this game (hmm, one out of every five. How many games are there going today?), and one of those is about a Knicks player and has nothing to do with the Lakers. While it may make sense to YOU to ignore the biggest team in the league when they’re playing on Christmas day with one of the best teams in the league, but I think we’ve established why you don’t run a blog.

Write about what people care about. It’s generally a good idea.

As if the stampede of Laker articles ad nauseum were not enough. We now have to have in game articles? Jesus H, find some other teams to write articles on already.
