The temperatures in Los Angeles may perpetually hover around 80° during the summer, but it's so very cold in the hearts of Lakers fans across the greater metropolitan area. Their beloved team isn't taking part in the 2015 NBA Finals, and the mood isn't cheery, to say the least. Which is why it's so much fun to bother them.

As part of Complex NEWS's commitment to getting outside this summer, we decided to do some light IRL trolling. Joined by our summer correspondent Marianna Hewitt, we hit the streets of L.A. to find out how Lakers fans are coping in this trying time, what they're doing with the warmer months, and what sort of hurtful things they have to say about the times that did what the Lakers couldn't. Check it out (and stay tuned for more from Complex's Summer Vacation).
