I am thrilled to announce my 218th 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 Los Angeles Lakers as they are flirting with disaster.

Can you really imagine an NBA Playoffs without Lebron James in them? Doesn’t that seem impossible? I can’t really imagine an NBA Finals with no Lebron, let alone him missing the first round.

But here we are just 21 games away from the start of the post season and the Lakers are on the outside looking in, for now.

It was another painful loss last night for the purple and gold as the Greek Freak and the Milwaukee Bucks won last night in L.A. It was a dynamite game that had the Lakers in the lead pretty late in the game before some awful turnovers by KCP and Lebron James that cost them the game. Eric Bledsoe was an absolute beast for the Bucks as Giannis had a pretty quiet game.

The Lakers are back in action tonight though against the worst team in the Western Conference, the Phoenix Suns. They are 7 point favorites and they should blow this team out. There are no excuses for them to fall short and I fully expect Lebron James to have his squad ready to explode for a 20+ point win and take out their frustrations on this gravely inferior team.

It is now or never King James, time to put a BEATDOWN on these young pups in Phoenix.

I would love to tell you all about it in my new Scorum Sports Cast. To check out my 218th show just click the play button below. I look forward to hearing your input and comments. Cheers!
