2017 NBA Offseason Thread

[Black Adam]

Good slate of summer games tonight. Notably Lakers and Suns and Kings. Chance to catch Ball, Jackson, and Fox in action.

hoping these kids(ours ESPECIALLY) are as good as advertised...

 

[DJ Fieri]

I rarely tune in for summer league games but I will tonight.....

 

[DJ Fieri]

Lmao.....Dude, this doesn't even get me a honorable mention in the autocorrect HOF.

 

[The Derski]

Well, you had a bit of a run-on sentence, lumping them altogether.

Yeah I accidentally used an extra "and".

 

[DJ Fieri]

Hope Lonzo Ball shows out and doesn't lay an egg....

 

[Black Adam]

They sticking him in the nosebleed seats.

 

[Black Adam]

could you imagine Lavar saying he could suit up right now and own every team in the Summer League on the court...?

They sticking him in the nosebleed seats.

lol , if he IS there he ain't gonna be stuck in the bleeders, though you could probably still hear his mouth from there...

Embarrassing. Not sure how you'll be able to show your face around these parts any longer.

Lavar might be crazy. But, he's not stupid.


As Johnson recalls, "He said, 'Earvin, look, I'm not following my son. I'm not going to be hanging out in L.A. I'm going to be training these young kids [his other sons].'"

"'As far as training my boy, this is as far as I can take him,'" LaVar says he told Johnson. "'I'll leave it up to you to take him further. You can get him better with the film time and the coaching. You can take him to another level.'"

"I trust you with my boy. I just got a great feeling that you guys are going to take Zo to a whole other level.'"

It was the closing sales pitch the Lakers needed to hear. Less than a week later, they chose Lonzo No. 2 overall pick.

LaVar says he's taught Lonzo all he can teach him, wants Lakers to handle the rest

 

[Kold]

I guess I wouldn't mind it if we tried to give kcp one of those 1 year overpay deals...

Until Lonzo struggles -- and then I'm sure we'll hear from Lavar.
