Jared Dudley didn’t appreciate one comment in particular made by Snoop Dogg about his Los Angeles Lakers teammate Danny Green following Game 5 of the 2020 NBA Finals. “I’m someone where I don’t question your fandom, because for one, he’s solidified, he’s cemented when it comes to fandom,” Dudley said of Snoop’s allegiance to the Lakers on Complex’s Load Management podcast. “I’m questioning your […]
A man in Los Angeles reportedly made the very bad decision of disrespecting Kobe Bryant as the city was celebrating the Lakers winning another title. A video posted to social media shows a man getting pummeled by a group of Lakers fans after he allegedly yelled “Fuck Kobe.” Dude said “Fuck Kobe” during a […]

Last night, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Miami Heat in game 6 of the 2020 NBA Finals to capture the franchise’s 17th NBA title.
