Hello, Lakers Nation. Welcome into the Lakers Nation.com podcast.

I am Trevor Lane, and I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas with that win over the Golden State Warriors.

What an epic game that was.

In fact, while I'm talking here on the YouTube side, I'm going to throw up some highlights from the game here.

What an awesome, awesome, awesome Christmas Day game that ended up being.

And what a great Christmas day for the NBA in general.

So cool to see the NBA get that kind of day.

You know, there's been a lot of talk about ratings around the league,

ratings being down. What's the reason for it? Is it streaming? Is it attention span? Is it the lack of,

or the overuse of the three-point shot? Has that been the issue? What has been the problem

with the NBA and the ratings? And to see them get that kind of Christmas day where we had not just Lakers Warriors,

which of course was the main event of the day,

Lakers Warriors was the main event.

But so many great games around the league,

it was fantastic to see.

we had four buzzer-peaters, four game winners in one night last night.

Incredible.

Including a absolutely fact here, I'll show you guys, a insane one with the Sacramento

Kings to the Lakers see on Saturday.

The Kings are up three and Deerun Fox fouls Jaden Ivy while he's shooting a three.

Ivy makes the three, then the free throw, and the Kings lose by one.
