Intro

The NBA truly is where amazing happens. Sometimes those amazing feats are ill playoff dunks, other times they are epic fails. Last night it was the latter. The Los Angeles Lakers held a seven-point lead with two minutes left and were seemingly on their way to evening the series. Then all hell broke loose. Kobe Bryant had a few key turnovers, Mike Brown did his best Erik Spoelstra impersonation and the final shot attempt went to Steve Blake (the ninth worst player in the NBA today). As with any series of fails the Interwebs went H.A.M., here’s how Twitter Ethered Steve Blake and the Lost Angeles Lakers.

Ah the late '90s, back when Kobe had a hairline and you still had a relevant career.

Erik Spoelstra is his struggle brother from another mother.

True, Kobe couldn't have turned the ball over multiple times if he were on the sideline. #mambastansaretheworst
