Is there any random game over your years as a Lakers fan that you find yourself thinking about time to time? Not necessarily a game that had any major importance, just one that you have particularly good memories of.
For some reason mine is the game vs the mavericks in 2019 where Danny Green hit the game winner. I remember thinking after that win in particular that this team really had something and that it was gonna be a wild ride (little did I know lmao).

Beating the Clippers in the last game of the 1992 regular season in overtime to make the playoffs as the No. 8 seed, instead of falling into the lottery for Shaq. The Rockets fell into the lottery instead and ended up drafting Horry. Every player gave maximum effort every moment that he was on the floor, to extend their season. They played the Blazers in the first round, losing the first two games in Portland. They won Game 3 at the Forum on the same night that the riots in L.A. started after the LAPD cops who beat Rodney King were acquitted. Game 4 was played in Las Vegas, which they lost.
