Pablo Goldstein is a native Angeleno and lifelong Lakers fan whose earliest memories of the team are Nick Van Exel passes to Eddie Jones and the skeletal Staples Center rising east of the 110 Freeway. His writing has been featured in Vulture, McSweeney’s, Splitsider, and The Cut. Basketball is his favorite sport. He likes the way they dribble up and down the court.
