2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

Lakers fans, if LeBron chooses Kawhi, you'll get a chance to see what could have been...lol

He ain't picking Kawhi unless Brow and Luka are gone.

I don't love you anymore.....the honeymoon is over.....










































LMAO. I couldn't keep a straight face.....

 

[DJ Fieri]

Kawhi Leonard and Paul George’s ‘preferential treatment’ is reportedly bugging teammates

Uh oh...

 

[DJ Fieri]

Ate a very late dinner and had a nice 24oz beverage and am close to falling out.....

 

[trojanfan12]

And some folks want to take the vote away from the fans. lol

 

[trojanfan12]

Yeah, I'm gonna need to hear this from Lou and Trezl.

Pat is usually a straight shooter.

But, he's also one of the guys that has sat out multiple games.

I wonder if the author is a Lakers fan? Trying to get back at Doc for his Lebron comments. lol

Seems like a whole lot of nothing to me.

The players all knew that this was what was going to happen.

I'm sure the reality of it has felt a little different at times than it did when it was talked about in July.

But I'd also bet that not one single player on that team would rather they not have Kawhi and PG.

First pick....would be shocked if not AD.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

You talking about the star they used for the all star logos? It's based on this

Flag of Chicago - Wikipedia

Yeah...

I know what it's based on.

But, the star has been repurposed as a logo for one of the biggest gangs in Chicago.

They very specifically use the 6 point star.

The good folks if Chicago don't need another reason to shoot at each other.

Don't want to see a bunch of dead kids over wearing a jersey in the wrong area.

This is like the Clippers Paul George City Jersey.

The number 13 with Los Angeles written in that script...

Hmmmm. Where have I seen that before?

Maybe I worked a year to long in the County Jail gang taskforce unit.

But, I see shit like this, and automatically make those connections.

It's a smart, yet dangerous, way to get Angelinos to buy a Clippers Jersey.

 

[Wamu]

When Kyrie was in Boston the Celtics had a better record without him. Now he's in Brooklyn. The Nets record without him is 13-14. And with him it's 5-11.

True or not, won't be a real issue unless they don't win.

No chip?

Next year will be bumpy.

 

[shopson67]

No doubt, I wouldn't disagree that Zion is bigger...

... but, frankly, I'd wager that LeBron played heavier than that through a good portion of his career...

Possibly, but also has no lower body injury history, especially at such a young age. Major red flag IMO.

 

[shopson67]

...and only 1 of those previous players is still on the roster

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Yo......

Iggy is on First Take right now.

He didn't come out and say it.

But, he wants to be a Laker.

I just don't see a path for him getting there, sans buyout.

Ditto for Rose.

They have no picks and that is Detroit's asking price RIGHT NOW.

I still think Dallas or Denver will trade for Iggy.

Both have decent young talents and picks.

I think the Clippers will trade parts and their 1st rounder for Drummond, Whiteside unless they can get Morris.

I wouldn't be sad to get Taj for a lower price.

But, I'm totally nonplussed about Thad Young.


Hey, is Batum washed?

He used to be a pretty good playmsking wing.

Think WCS and Burks could help your team. Wouldn't be mad at trying to get Landry Shamet back from you guys.

And your point is?

It's great, but to be honest some of their takes are becoming a bit old. Think they need to incorporate a more recent player to give some insight as to the evolution of today's game. They all played in a similar era and when they critique players and the game it's with a sense of "we were better and today is garbage".

I think a guy like Chris Bosh, Matt Barnes or Vince Carter once he hangs it up would be great additions.

I'd honestly rather keep Shamet over Burks.

Cheap, under contract, trending upwards with his 3 ball.

Wade is on the way.

Has a show with Shaq, Candace Parker.

KIDNEY STONES, y'all.

I never had them before.

Today, however, I spent the entire morning writhing on the floor by a toilet. Never had that type of relentless pain before, and the pain caused uncontrollable nausea.

After a trip to the ER, I'm doing 100% better... just gotta manage the pain and should pass them in less than a week (I'm told).

Anyway, I say all that to give this public service announcement:

Drink more water, y'all! I'm gonna pound 3 or 4 bottles a day after this experience.

Never want to go through this sh!t again.
