Lakers news is getting ridiculous.

Lakers this.

Lakers that.

That's all I seem to hear about lately when I hear NBA news.  It seems that Lakers news is prioritized above all other teams (except for maybe the Heat or Thunder or Spurs) and I guess I can kind of understand.  I'm a Utah Jazz fan and.. hell.. I find Laker news more interesting than Utah news.  The only Utah news lately has been a debate over which tall guy we're going to get rid of first.

But really, I do think that news about the Lakers is becoming.. too abundant. It seems that some people will take any news about the Lakers rather than none.  I'm half expecting to wake up tomorrow and see

BREAKING NEWS: DWIGHT HOWARD ORDERS TWO CHALUPAS AT TACO BELL SOURCES SAY

Then the questions will come in.  Why just two Chalupas?  Why didn't he get three?  Is he on some new crazy diet that will improve his free throws?  Why didn't he get three?  Is he becoming lazy?  After all, if I really wanted to improve my basketball abilities I'd get at least four or maybe even five chalupas.  A champions got to eat. And eat well!  Why did he get the chalupas?  The tacos clearly have much more bang for your buck.  Is he becoming wreckless on spending?  Are we about to see the decline of a once great NBA star?  In a year we might see his mansion foreclosed on because he couldn't keep his spending under control.  Why couldn't you have just gotten the tacos, Dwight? Why?  

Wait a minute.  Why don't the sources cite Dwight also getting a drink with chalupas?  Is Dwight already broke?  Surely he could have afforded the extra $1.50 needed to buy himself a drink.  

And that's just a few minutes of rambling about what that title could mean.  I'm sure sports journalists could make much more firm and complete conclusions about that title given enough time.  

But anyways, I'm getting off topic.

The Lakers news needs to stop.  I'd rather hear about how Curry scores 50+ points instead of hearing about a team that is barely making the 8th spot with their multiple future hall of famers.
