"Luka’s effort has increased and is better than his reputation suggests, as he led the Lakers in deflections last season, but he still has major room for improvement. With a slimmer frame, there’s optimism for more consistent investment." silverscreenandroll.com/lake…

I go to bed at 1 every night knowing I can outlast young punks like yourself. I wake up at 4, knowing you’re in REM sleep and unconscious, to tweet overnight Nets news before finally arising at 8 to seize the day, knowing you’re hung over from a depressing night of debauchery.

Rob Pelinka: “This Lakers roster is a lot like The Odyssey, you launch a season and there’s things that happen that you can’t predict. You have to stay strong and stay together as a group.”

"I think I’m different than a lot of guys in other cities because I’m not a screamer. My feeling was, years ago, that people paid money to come and see the Lakers, not to hear some clown on the PA. I use enthusiasm when the appropriate time comes, but I’m not a cheerleader and I don’t want to be." - Lawrence Tanter

The only time I quoted Lawrence Tanter for a story came when he described everything that went into announcing the first game after Kobe’s passing. espn.com/nba/story/_/id/2875…

I am so sad to hear. He was a great vibe dude, always engaged me in conversation about jazz, he was a music lover and the best announcer in the nba. I realized when attending many other nba arenas that noone else came close. Bless his beautiful heart.
Lawrence Tanter, forever in our hearts as a member of the Lakers family 💜

Oh man RIP. He was truly part of the Lakers soundtrack and had just the perfect boom for a PA voice. An indelible part of the Lakers soundtrack who will be missed
