2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

So you have gone from we are under .500 to us making the Finals now?

The Lakers have a good team now.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

I actually think I get his point


They don’t need guys hanging on trying to shoot and score their way back into the league

They need a vet who is happy to be the sage bench guy


Funny thing? They just traded the perfect guy for that role in Danny green

Sure.

He could have simply said that.

Didnt have to mention anyone by name.

The Lakers have a good team now.

And on top of that, the West is wide open. The three top seeds all have exploitable issues in playoff basketball.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Oops we ran into a problem

Fucker deleted it.

I hate that asshole.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

They won't win a title this season, so why should I be all bubbly for that...?

Because of where you started.

I know Lakers are always championship or bust to some fans.

But, you have not been a .500 team for a single game this year and it didn’t look like you would ever be.

Now, the top 4 teams out West have to be absolutely pissing themselves at the prospect of facing you in the first round.

Just imagine if you had a functional roster the entire season?

You're right. I'm spoiled as fuck...

I am just tired of watching kids do stupid shit because they see it on TV.

Then people here saying they miss the days when players didn’t shake hands after?

What?

Players almost always shook hands after the game. It was a big deal when they didn’t, like when the Bulls beat the Pistons for the first time.

I get your point.

But, I’m not a fan of the Buddy, Buddy shit during games.

Be friends after.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

You're right. I'm spoiled as fuck...

I don’t see you beating the Bucks or Celtics.

I don’t see you beating the Clippers without Lebron being 100%.

But everyone else, you have just as good a chance as anyone.

It’s a game of matchups.

Clippers built their roster to beat the Lakers.

But, they can’t beat anyone else with any kind of consistency.

Look what happens when they see a Nugz logo.

The Lakers?

Joker got nothing for Davis.

If you get Lebron back, West is wiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open.

But, the Champ will come outta the East…imo

 

[fightinfunbags]

I’ll just leave this here. VORP your way out of this shit…

Imagine Shaq playing vs Jokic?

LOL.

100 on the Lakers to win the WC is a fucking longshot but a nice payoff.

 

[tlance]

I get your point.

But, I’m not a fan of the Buddy, Buddy shit during games.

Be friends after.

Yeah, I agree with that.

Although, there are ways to use the buddy/buddy stuff to your advantage too.

Like MJ and Charles.

MJ used the hell out of that to get in chuck’s head.

LOL.

Would be felony assault

What complicates shit is that they’ll have to beat Bucks and Celtics to even get to the Finals and as of today both would have home court.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Trying it again @Mecca.....needs to be approved but set it up to expire Sunday at 7pm.

Yeah just saying getting 4 to 5 times the odds of those teams I would definitely bet it

$100 is what I paid for me and my 2 kids to go see Anthan and the Wasp, when you add the cost of a beverage.

I want my money back.

Lakers winning the West would have been a much better investment.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Gonna be craaaaaaaaazzzzzzzy if the entire Pacific division makes the playoffs.

I think all 5 definitely make the playin.

You can live with yourself much better knowing you just picked a bad movie.
