NBA Twitter shows disgust towards Lakers after Phoenix blowout

The Los Angeles Lakers got beat up in every facet of the game by the Phoenix Suns on Sunday in a 140-111 thrashing, and it was a total embarrassment for LeBron James and company.

Just days after she tearfully left her lucrative and high-profile job as sideline reporter for Sunday Night Football, Michele Tafoya appeared on right-wing media networks to show her true colors.
