Several years back the organization unceremoniously ditched Phil and his entire crew-- along with a large number of longtime Laker staff during the lockout season. ***Even announcing they would be letting staff go DURING the playoff run***
Ever since then, the team has been "cursed".
This is what I get for bashing on my buddy all these years for being a Clips fan.

Weird. Greg Oden was injured at Staples on opening night 10/28/2008 against the Lakers. Randle was injured at Staples on opening night 10/28/2014.
Ariza had to witness it from the opposing bench on both occasions.
I don't/didn't believe in supernatural stuff but this is getting ridiculous. It had to be Randle? No one else on the roster could've broken his leg other than the one (bleep) guy who could've really helped our franchise going forward?

I thought the potential signing of Michael Beastly for table scraps was a no-brainer before... Now it's looking like incompetence not signing him. _________________ Blood, sweat, tears,

This. I've said it too. It's Rudy's (the equipment manager fired after decades to save a nickel) curse.
Or any other NBA team that hasn't sniffed a championship let alone a Finals.
This is devastating, but this isn't the end of the world. Hopefully we find a way to get a top 5 pick, God knows we can use all the help in the world. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals
