Los Angeles Lakers 2018-2019 Season Thread

[Retroram52]

James goes out and the lead balloons to 7.

 

[Retroram52]

A season of frustration being vented. Luke Walton chewing out Kyle Kuzma after Kuzma decided it wasn't worth guarding Danny Green. Raptors at 9 made 3s and up 59-52.

 

[Retroram52]

Maybe ass chewings will work.

 

[Retroram52]

It is our season-long wussie D. The defensive glass cost us a 3 from Kawhi and Danny Green.

 

[Retroram52]

Does this team even want to win 40 games this year?

 

[Retroram52]

Two rebounds and no points as we go into fade/tank mode apparently.

 

[Retroram52]

Fouls on Wagner and Rondo. Now these guys do that well.

 

[Retroram52]

Bullock, a measly 3 points and 1 rebound in 13 minutes. Betcha' Mykhailiuk is doing better.

 

[Retroram52]

Personal foul on Kuzma. That's the way to do it.

 

[Retroram52]

Gasbag 2 makes both of his FTs and the lead stays around 8-9.

 

[Retroram52]

Leonard with the dagger three as everyone stands around and watches him shoot. The lead balloons to 11.

 

[Retroram52]

Well I have seen enough. Nothing has changed with these fragile basketball players.

If this is true, maybe Jeannine should have pulled the trigger.

Trinity Love Jones.....may that POS rot in the eternal flames of Hell.

You decided to show up tonight after being gone most of the season?

LOL. KIdding, hope all is well in your world, Retro. DJ knows the struggle.....I'm just killing it being tax season and all.

 

[DJ Fieri]

DJ and Retro....it's almost like old times.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Time to move on from Rondo. Mo Wagner in.

Wagner has looked good in the last few games.

With Chandler and McGee gone, he may get the starting position at center next season if this cameo pans out.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The haters need to revel in this.....because when we win a title with King James......it's going to be oooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh sooooooooooooooo sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

I'm sure she did, to a point. One of the reasons that we all wanted Jeanie to assume control of the team was because we all figured that, unlike Short Buss, she would want to run the team like her Dad did.

Dr. Buss would never have stood for AD's trade request being made public like that. Especially with the Lakers name attached to it. He would have wanted it handled quietly, behind the scenes.

As the article said, the Lakers aren't trading Lebron. Especially since the season was derailed more by injury than anything else.

But I think she also probably wanted to send a message to Lebron and Rich Paul that this isn't how the Lakers conduct their business.

Dr. Buss traded Shaq, so they should know that Lebron can be traded too.

A win here would be nice.
