7 New Year’s Resolutions for LA Lakers

A new year provides a clean slate. For most of us, it provides an opportunity to enrich our lives. It could be a resolution to watch our diets, increase our exercise, spend more time with our family or grow as a person. No matter what it is or who we are, each and every one of us can use it to improve some aspect of our lives.
