NBA: Houston Rockets at Los Angeles LakersThe Los Angeles Lakers officially began their offseason, and the team will have a lot of questions to answer entering the summer. After getting swept by the San Antonio Spurs in the first round, the Lakers will need to make some changes to the roster and prepare for another pressure-filled season.

Los Angeles did not end its season on a very high note as they were ousted out of the Playoffs in front of their fans. To add insult to injury, center Dwight Howard was ejected from the game in what could be the last time he suits up for the Lakers.

The front office will have its hands full in the offseason, and the number one priority will be to keep Dwight Howard for the long-run.

Lakers Nation Game Recap:

The Lakers played their final game of the 2012-13 season in Los Angeles, but there was never really a time when they looked like the better team. The Spurs outplayed the Lakers in almost every aspect of the game, and the Staples Center crowd was silenced very early. After an injury filled season, the Lakers’ nightmare finally came to an end as the Spurs walked off the court winners, 103-82.
