NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

I was asking a question, as has been stated there is a lot more to this that has not came out yet.

...and a lot of pushback that assuming the worst when someone just tragically died is inappropriate

As I said, I was asking a question. You are the one jumping to conclusions.

Yeah, your question wasn't leading whatsoever lol

I made a true statement, nothing more.

How is an assumptive question a true statement?

It wasn't. Claypools tweet seems to suggest that he was there when it happened.

"I spent your final moments with you and I can't help but think about how selfless you were in those moments".

Anything that gets real basketball minds in the front office is fine by me. The Rambis Family needs to go, and that is unlikely under this ownership.

Aren't Jeanie Buss & Linda Rambis good friends?

But you're assuming a negative context involving both caused the accident, or at least were leading in that direction with the wording of your question...

Yep, and it has been a big part of the failings of this franchise.

Im guessing Haskings was drunk? No other reason to be walking across a highway

He was drunk, damn? Looked up a couple articles. No mention of alcohol being involved and the incident happened at around 6:30 in the morning. It'll be interesting when the autopsy report is released.

Holy crap. That's not good.

 

[Black Adam]

Holy crap. That's not good.

It's kinda the reason I'd like her to sell the team...

Won't happen, but we definitely need more basketball minds running things...

 

[shopson67]

Holy crap. That's not good.

When you lose Lue as a coaching hire by requiring him to put Rambis on his staff, it's a problem.

Sounds like there's some issues in LakersLand right now. But they're the Lakers. And I expect them to fix the issues.

When you lose Lue as a coaching hire by requiring him to put Rambis on his staff, it's a problem.

What!?!? They wanted to force Lue to add Rambis? That's crazy.

No. I'm saying that from Claypool's tweet, it seems like he was there. I haven't speculated in any way or asked anything about why he was in the road.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yep.

Bks was assuming a lot more than TJ.

How is an assumptive question a true statement?

Bks was assuming a lot more than TJ.

Yeah, I probably got crossed up between the 2.

I was just reading about it in the paper and the Highway Patrol is calling it an ''open traffic homicide investigation''. I wonder if they think the dump truck driver was under the influence of something?

I would bet that is just standard language until the investigation is over.
