Lakers: Byron Scott-era melancholy is evoked by Darvin Ham’s response to the Suns’ rout.

Lakers: Byron Scott-era melancholy is evoked by Darvin Ham’s response to the Suns’ rout.

The Phoenix Suns defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 127-109 on Thursday night. Early in the game, Phoenix raced away with it, so they really had no chance. Darvin Ham’s post-game reaction to the defeat is evoking memories of Byron Scott’s time as Los Angeles’ head coach.

According to Lakers beat reporter Edwin Garcia, Ham said at the team’s postgame news conference that they needed to “man up” after being thoroughly embarrassed by the Suns. Fans of LA are all too acquainted with those two phrases.

Lakers News: Players Included in NBA “Quarterback” Version Include LeBron James

The news of LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers and NFL great Peyton Manning’s collaboration to develop a new series based on Netflix’s “Quarterback,” which documented the training and lifestyles of certain NFL signal-callers, was first revealed in October.

James and Manning intended to create an NBA rendition of the Netflix feature that is available for streaming on the same network.

It has been little more than two months since the original announcement, and until Wednesday morning, when the five players selected for the project’s debut season—which included elite players from all across the league—there had been no more information available.

In addition to James, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports that the programme will also include two rising superstars, a star veteran who is among the league’s most intriguing, and an unexpected selection from Sacramento.

The group that includes James, Domantas Sabonis, Jimmy Butler, Anthony Edwards, and Jayson Tatum could make for a fun television season. With LeBron James participating, Laker supporters will undoubtedly pay attention.

Tatum and Edwards are two of the league’s most promising young players, but Butler has also long been one of the most fascinating characters in terms of his public persona.

Being the son of former NBA player Arvydas Sabonis, Sabonis offers a perspective from both the perspective of an NBA kid and a player with an international background. The five-member ensemble James and Manning have assembled for their first season has a lot going for them.

LeBron James has a dance party to commemorate his 39th birthday.
James’ celebration upon reaching 39 shows that he hasn’t let his age stop him from being competitive, either on or off the court.

James is no stranger to a lavish party; in fact, he is well known for throwing some major ones over the years, particularly after relocating to Los Angeles to play for the Lakers. However, James went all out for his 39th birthday, throwing a lavish celebration with a 1970s disco theme that may have been the greatest yet.

James shared a video of the whole evening on Instagram, complete with some famous attendees and a cinematic perspective of the proceedings.
