Lakers: Who's Next on the Menu?
So, the Lakers are done for the season. Shocker, right? Just kidding (kind of). We all knew the Western Conference was a meat grinder, and the Nuggets were the sharpest knives in the drawer. But hey, at least LeBron got to show off his "old man still got it" skills one more time.

The Lakers' Playoff Journey: A Rollercoaster with No Brakes
Let's be honest, this Lakers season was a rollercoaster. There were moments of pure exhilaration, like when they were actually good and looked like they might contend. Then there were those stomach-dropping plummets when it seemed like they were actively trying to lose. But hey, that's basketball, baby!
The Nuggets: The Undisputed Kings of the West
Props to the Nuggets. Jokic is a freaking beast, and Murray is that guy you hate playing against. They deserved that series win. But can we talk about how they made the Lakers look like a G-League team? It was painful to watch at times.
What's Next for the Lakers?
Now, the real question is: What do the Lakers do next? Do they trade LeBron? Do they blow it up and start over? Or do they just hope that Anthony Davis stays healthy and that Russ Westbrook finally retires? The offseason is going to be interesting.
