The Lakers aren't tanking. They're just very bad.


The truth hurts.

Huh? Why else do you think they would sign one year deals on historically bad players like Kaman, Young, Wesley Johnson, etc and give Sacre heavy minutes?

The tanking was done in the summer and we've been saying that.

I never got they impression that they were aiming straight for the lottery. Yes, it was obvious that the Lakers wouldn't be a playoff team or at best a 7th/8th seed, but not a top lottery team.

That's how they get people to buy tickets.

Kendall Marshall played 37 minutes tonight, bro.

2 months ago, no one knew if he was still alive.

lakers have some tough competition if they want to tank.. they are still only the 7th worst

6th worst. 3 way tie with Kings and Cavs.

They still had a winning record in early December, and they've already lost to the Jazz, Bucks, Cavs and 76ers since then.

The Magic and Bucks are probably out of reach but the rest are all within 1.5 game and the Lakers are about to hit a 7 game road trip.
