Karma is a bitch.

 

[thunderc]

Yep.

Like someone else mentioned, I don’t know who because his ass is muted * @shopson67 * why not just give up?

Because, you are winning fuck all with this guy as a starter.

Whose minutes is he getting?

Wall and Reggie were frequent DNP’s.

They could totally get away with having Bones run the 2nd unit and Gordon or Powell closing games.

But, no….

Let’s bring in anon shooting, doesn’t know he’s way outta his prime, chemistry killer.

…..not that they had any real chemistry to begin with.

I’m being ver serious right now.

I am literally sick.

On the bright side

I can understand that. How do you see the Lakers finishing the regular season with the new roster?

I think they improve, but expecting them to play like they did vs the Pels consistently is a tough call. I think they find their way into the play in games at best.

I'm just glad they now have some actual youngish depth to carry into next season, instead of starting all over with 10 more vet min contracts like the past two summers. Finally some continuity (provided they ignore any Kyrie temptation)...

You've been warned, LeBron.

She is too classy for that!

She's not about bandwagons, more about tank parades I guess? It's that military background...

LOL. Sour grapes over a few seconds of actual defense. Lebron already got his karma, jamming the rim between his fingers on a later block attempt.

She’s a masochist, not a monster

They already have their First Lady of Basketball, @Shaqdaddy11 .

He may have been joking, but Lebron is far from being above this for getting his ass handed to him on record night. There are unwritten rules, even for Lebron.

Yeah, only because there are so few games left.

Just not enough time to realistically get out of the playin.

He went after other blocks too, not just Shai.

LOL at Lebron caring about the win that night. He achieved his objective and basically closed up shop for a week.

Is there a valid reason why the All-Star break and trade deadline isn't earlier? I kept hearing "the midpoint of the season", which isn't even close lol.

Like someone else said, I have to believe they think they have a way to make it work.

I can't imagine what they could come up with to try that the Lakers didn't, but they must have some idea.

Maybe they figure Lue has the juice to keep him under control compared to a first year guy like Ham?

Lebron contested siakam shot as well but he isn't crying like a bitch about it.

I have to think George went out on a limb, only way I see this happening.

Neither was Shai, sounded more like a man to man challenge to me.

My biggest criticism of him is his self-promotion over the team, really evident of late.
