Good deal. I'd love to sit courtside for a game. Those tickets are too expensive though.

I've gotten to sit very near courtside at a couple of Lakers games over the years. It's pretty cool. They have folks who come take your order so you don't have to stand in line at the concession stand.

The first time was during the Showtime era. Kupchak had just retired and became the Lakers Assistant GM. My parents had gotten me the tickets for my birthday. I'm sitting in my sit, get to looking around and Kupchak is sitting in the same section about 3 rows behind me.

Spent the next couple of weeks bragging to friends about how I had better seats than Mitch Kupchak. lol

De La Soul. Now that's a blast from the past. What's weird is while I was watching that video I thought of Arrested Development. Another group from back in the day I kinda forgot about.
Yeah... Tennessee was the shit.

Loved Arrested development.

She disappeared before the end of the Finals.

She's normally back by now.

I'll be going to Staples for a few myself, but man, i feel your pain...

Live games are always the best. Haven't been to alotta areans but I've made it to some.

Original Boston Garden & the new(er) Garden. Cavs games- old Richfield Coliseum & Gund Arena. Pacers- Market Square Arena. Detroit- Palace of Auburn Hills. Nuggets- Pepsi Center. MSG. Philly- the Spectrum. Obviously all games were to see the Celtics.

Is this news?

Didn't we already know all this?

Kawhi wants to prove he's better than LeBron.

* He's not *

You can't do that if you are carrying his luggage.

Kobe Bryant: Kawhi Leonard Wanted Challenge of Winning Without LeBron James

Nothing wrong with that. Gotta respect him wanting to challenge Lebron rather than just join him.

But yeah, I think most of us figured that out when Kawhi said he didn't want to do the "stacked team" thing.

If he goes to the Lakers when they already have Lebron and AD, they become the Warriors of the past few years and you just automatically pencil them into the finals.

By going to the Clips and pairing with PG, they and the Lakers each become one of about 5 teams that could win it.

will she be in the swarm of IG models...?

kidding! I ain't got a deathwish...
Dude is dating that chick from Spiderman Homecoming.

I'm mildly surprised.

Pretty girl.

But, kinda basic in comparison to some of THOTS he's smashed over the years.

I guess beauty is only skin deep and he's met his quota on pretty girls with shit for brains.

I don't know. Maybe I'm just a pig. But she looks like she could suck a golfball through a garden hose.

Yep.

This is the rest season in...4ever....that we can't pencil teams in for the finals.

That's pretty fucking spectacular imo...

I guess I could see discrediting them some in the sense they don't mean much today.....but that would be true of all franchises who have titles from long ago, whether they moved or not.

I mean, the Browns have a ton of titles, and I guess I'm a little proud of their history but hard to care all that much if I only saw highlights (as would be the case of the majority of living Browns' fans, sadly).
Agree

We all suffer from recency bias.

I can tell you from experience that brainless babes may get dates, but they certainly won't hold your attention for very long...

Actually I have to make one correction. I did see all the great teams/players of the 80's & 90's at Richfield & Gund.
