2022 NBA Offseason thread

[DJ Fieri]

Should probably direct your energy at Q

You provided the link to the thread.....LOL.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Nah, you jumped right in with him.

You even dragged up an old thread.

And I have energy enough for you both.

Direct your energy at BKS.

1-He provided the link to the thread.

2-The Q is a respectable non Lakers fan, he even ventures into the Laker threads (something not many non Lakers fans do) @Retroram52 can vouch for him as well as myself, not to mention most in here. And he can argue and debate intelligently. Not homeristically. Looking at me @Mecca making up words!!!!

 

[DJ Fieri]

Nice. Lots of energy for an old man i see

Sorry, @trojanfan12 this was funny.....

 

[DJ Fieri]

My wife made me start taking vitamins.

What kind? I take a Men's one a day.....sometimes I pop 2 or 3 of those motherfuckers.....but they don't help with my energy. Gotta go to the Dr, always fucking tired.....

If you don't get enough veggies (who the fuck gets 3-4 servings a day?) try taking wheat grass.....I get it off Amazon and pop 5-6 a day......but be careful.....I took 7-8 a few times and was SHITTING my brains out.

Yeah I’m not trying to throw too much shade

But there was def some derozen taking the mle talk last summer

Don’t ask me what thread though lol

But some guys will do weird shit. Look at harden.

Didn’t Eddie Jones threaten the mle if Charlotte didn’t sign and trade him to miami?

Sure, but I also said IF (and my reasoning was pretty sound, he's made a shit ton during his sound and he is from the CPT) at the bottom of the thread BKS posted.

And it wouldn't have been for the MLE but there was this.

Via Yahoo Sports:

“I felt like going to the Lakers was a done deal and that we were going to figure it out. I was going to come home,” DeRozan said in November. “The business side of things just didn’t work out. A couple of things didn’t align. It didn’t work out. It’s just part of the business, part of the game.”

I honestly don't remember EJ's situation.

[DJ Fieri]

And nobody asked but here's a list of non-respectable non-Lakers fans. In no particular order.....

Wiggythehoghunter
MSG
BKS
LeBron24 (whatever alt he's using nowadays)

Borderline, teetering on the verge of being on the list

Fixed.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Night all.

See you on the flip side (in the AM).....hope I get some sleep.....

 

[SMOKEY95]

Makes sense.

I'd go Huerter too.

Mitchell is a DAWG on defense.

But, he has a mastiff's heart in a French bull dog's body.

No way should they even consider playing Fox and Monk together full-time.

In spurts, sure.

If the rookie plays well, I can see them dealing Barnes.

FOX AND MONK ARE BESTIES AND HE WILL BE STARTING OVER KEVIN

HOLMES IS DRAMA HE WONT BE STARTING

THIS IS HOW THE STARTING LINE UP IS GONNA BE

1 FOX
2 MONK
3 BARNES
4 SABONIS
5 QUETA

Because they are the 2 most petulant malcontents in NBA History.

They are chronically unhappy.

But, being crazy and being stupid are two very different things.

I really believe Kyrie has a screw loose.

Yet, he wasn't stupid enough to leave 30 mil on the table for his
" principles "

Sure.

However,

Both those guys have already accumulated generational wealth assuming they aren’t dumb with their money.

Kevin Durant has already earned $300 million dollars over the course of his career from salary alone. He could walk away from another $200 and be just fine.

So yes, I do believe that someone in KD’s position might hypothetically be able to walk away from a huge multi-year contract.

Bronny James’ Monster Dunk Against French Select Team Had LeBron Hyped

The soon-to-be senior authored quite the highlight poster as his team participates in a Euro Tour.

Mind blowing numbers....

I don't know. Some kind of multivitamin. She just gets them and tells me to take them. lol

You can't read the bottle?

 

[The Q]

You can't read the bottle?

To be fair….

Flintstones is kind of a long word….

 

[trojanfan12]

You can't read the bottle?

I could, but I haven't. It's some multivitamin her doctor recommended. It's not any name brand like 1 A Day or whatever. Not even sure where she gets them from. Apparently, since I don't go to the doctor, she talks to her doctor about me. lol

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Sure.

Sure..

Its happened before.

Bison Dele, Ricky Williams, Larry Sanders all walked away and left money on the table.

But, in the very specific case of these 2 morons?

Kevin already said it wasn't true.

So, we don't need to guess what Durant would, or would not, do.

Even if it extends his stay in Brooklyn, he pissed all over the absurdity of this rumor.

Kyrie opted in.

So, his stance is pretty clear as well, no?

Kyrie could be a LAKER right now.

He had the power to control his own destiny.

So, why is he still a Net?

Because, when it comes down to it, he wouldn't put his money where his mouth is.

He's all bluster.

All this nonsense about what someone in their position would/could/should do is just noise.

When it came down to it, they both have a price.

Neither one of these clowns is as enlightened as they want folks to believe.

They aren't Mavericks out their bucking the system.

They are just self absorbed, petulant and entitled athletes.

I already know why Wiggy is on the list and Lebron24 is pretty self explanatory as well.

But, the middle 2?

What makes them non respectable?

It's not for a lack of basketball knowledge.

So, is it for calling people out on their shit or the way they do it?

Because, they have very different approaches and sparring styles.

@bksballer89 will go for the throat and try to end the cyber tussle with a single blow.

You might get cursed out too.

He says what he says and he's done.


@msgkings322 is more of a death by a thousand cuts kinda fighter who beats you down with heavy sarcasm and very little profanity.

He's a cat with a full belly that just wants to terrorize a mouse.
