2018 NBA offseason

[trojanfan12]

I was a lot younger.....didn't follow politics.....but looking back it was a bad look and yeah.....not good at all.

I've actually gotten less interested in politics as I've gotten older.

My senior year of high school was when Reagan ran against Carter. I was actually a George Bush supporter at that time and was happy when Reagan chose him as his running mate. In school, we had to pick a candidate, research his positions and write a report about why we supported them. It got me interested in politics.

I've watched the country appear to become increasingly divided with every election since Reagan ended his 2nd term.

Every time I vote, if the person I vote for wins, I hope they do well enough for me to be glad I voted for them. If they lose, then I hope the winner does well enough to make me wish I voted for them.

Yeah I put in 1 wrong date by mistake & you quoted me before I could correct it. Doesn't change the fact he said that stuff.

I gots the quickness.

 

[DJ Fieri]

No. I'm not running for or would ever get elected as President.

Besides, I need Jesus in my life but not actively looking for him at the moment.

Yes you do. Let's get back to talking basketball. Do you see the Lakers trying to make a trade during the season to improve the roster? Or will they wait until next summer?

 

[trojanfan12]

His biggest flaw was probably being too honest with the American people. They didn't want to hear about malaise. They wanted cheerfulness.

Yeah, as an honest politician, the poor guy never stood a chance. Imo, he was probably the most genuinely decent human being to hold office...at least since I've been old enough to understand politics.

Are you a LeBron fan yet since he's playing for your Purple n Gold?

If Kobe's cool w/ it I think you should be cool w/ it.

I think they make an offer for Leonard....not sure if they get him.

100% agree. I don't mind some politics on here because we all keep it pretty respectful. But after awhile...it gives me a headache.

I think it depends. This season is going to be about the kids and Lebron. If any of the kids are clearly looking like it's not going to work, I could see a trade happening before the season is over or soon after it's over.

Also, of course, if they get an offer that's too good to pass up.

Ideally, there won't be a need to trade anyone.

I heard only way Kawhi plays in L.A. next year is in a Clippers uniform.

To be honest it makes me wanna vomit thinking of the Lakers getting better. I know it's only a matter of time before they completely turn things around, dammit. But for my own laughter I hope LeBron's the only player on the court that knows what he's doing & all his hair falls out before his new teammates figure out what's going on.

I hereby take back my having pulled for the Celtics in this past seasons playoffs.

You're the real reason the Celtics lost the ECF. A Lakers fan pulling for the Celtics. Well I call bullshit on that sir! You jinxed 'em & I know it!

You heard it? Well then it's settled.

 

[Wamu]

Naw man, Chiefs ain't no SHEEP

It'll be fun to give him shit all year about LeBron.

 

[Wamu]

You heard it? Well then it's settled.

Not so much that I heard than I made it up. Don't tell anyone though okay?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

A Miami fan twitter handle made the "bold" prediction that one of the Heat players was going to have a really good season? And the Earth trembled.

2 years ago there was debate of Love or Whiteside for All Star replacement.
If anyone is aware of what injuries can do to set players back, its Philly fans.

I’d rather talk Heat, Whiteside, Cavs with @WiggyRuss then talk religion or politics with anyone.
