The Los Angeles Lakers had no idea how much they missed Swaggy P.

The NBA's signature team had an anti-Laker start to the season, opening 1-9 with a continuing string of blowout losses. Since Nick Young has returned from a hand injury however? LA is 2-0.

How does Young explain the team's improved play? Well, in Wednesday night's postgame press interview, Young had a colorful theory. “It’s all about my swag," Swaggy P stated, to the audible, bemused rumblings of his teammates. "That’s a part of my repertoire. I’m talking about how I just walk off. I leave a presence when I walk off. I’m like Michael Jackson, Prince, all them other guys.”

By then teammate Jordan Hill had to step in, and a hilarious sequence between the two of them and the Lakers beat reporter ensued. The two were barely able to answer the reporter's question, because they keep tripping over each other's words when the other was speaking.

The mood is demonstrably more upbeat in Lakers locker room than it has been at any point this season. Do we have Swaggy P to thank?

"I can't take all of the credit," Young stated, but add, "I can take some of it."
