I am thrilled to announce my 114th Scorum Sports Cast! You can find me @thesportsguru and I will be giving you the best 5-10 minute sports rants here on Scorum every day. On today’s episode I will talk about the Lakers disaster from last night as well as the big day we have upon us in the NFL.

Let me first start with what took place last night in Orlando. The Los Angeles Lakers were well rested and had not played since Wednesday. So surely they would be ready to give maximum effort as they played against the Orlando Magic. Right?

WRONG!

The Lakers were trailing by 10 points midway through the 4th quarter. But Lebron James didn’t even take off his warm up jersey. Lebron James did not even play in the 4th quarter. What in the hell is head coach Luke Walton doing? What is Lebron doing? Could you ever see Kobe or Michael Jordan just sit there are not even try to win a game?

Naturally, the Lakers would lose by 13 and Lebron James only played 25 minutes. He wasn’t hurt. He wasn’t tired. And he wasn’t interested in winning. Lebron should have put himself back in the game if Luke Walton wouldn’t. I can’t believe it. Enough with the GOAT talk with Lebron. He is the least clutch free throw shooter in the history of the NBA. He has played passive late in games SEVERAL times this year, and last night was the icing on the cake. How pathetic.

What happened to EVERY GAME COUNTS? If Luke Walton is going to coach like this and not even try to win, he needs to be fired. The Western Conference is way too competitive and there is no margin for error.

Now on to the NFL!!!! It is going to be a great day of football. The match-up between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Rams is going to be phenomenal. Is this the Super Bowl Preview?

The over/under of 63 is the highest in the history of the NFL. Which side should I bet on?

I would love to tell you all about it in my new Scorum Sports Cast. To check out my 114th show just click the play button below. I look forward to hearing your input and comments. Cheers!
