Pacers w/o Oladipo vs. Lakers w/LeBron James...Who wins?

[HurricaneDij39]

136 big ones at that.

That's what happens when you prioritize the stuff that actually happens on the court and not try to run before you've learned how to walk or crawl.

We're just the better team, that's all. If a 42-point blowout can't illustrate that then chances are you just don't follow the game of basketball.

BUILT NOT BOUGHT.

 

[DJ]

Built, not bought?

How many players were actually drafted by the Pacers there, big guy?

 

[DJ]

Oladipo wasn't.

Sabonis wasn't.

Young wasn't.

Evans wasn't.

Collison wasn't.

I could keep going but I think you know where I'm going with this.

 

[Gman]

Spike the football after a regular season game?

Sure... don't mind if I do!

i mean they lost like at least 6 in a row after oladipo went down... let him have it. awaiting to see the fate of all of those expiring contracts in the next few days.

Oladipo, Sabonis and Young were acquired via trade, aka not bought.

Pacers played in New Orleans the night before, got on a plane, landed in Indiana and played the Lakers- who had been waiting for them, without Oladipo- destroyed them

It looked like the Lakers were shook from the deadline talk.

 

[wildturkey]

Lakers tanked that game on purpose. They're actively trying to get Walton fired while on top of being disgruntled about the trade rumors. This shit is on Lebron for doing his usual passive aggressive schtick where he asserts his control over teams and on Magic Johnson for building such a poor roster last summer

There's a parade in Detroit tomorrow.


Those back to back wins, in February, got erybody all excited.

In all honesty they should have a parade now.

Because there won't be anything to celebrate in June.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

The Lakers spent the last few days:

1) trying to trade everyone without actually succeeding in anything other than pissing existing players off
2) firing the coach without actually firing him
3) planning 2022 title parades with 37 year old Lebron and his handpicked five allstar players


They probably needed this wake-up call.
I think it might help them for the rest of the season.

Lakers are trying to trade for AD. Building, not buying.

 

[ericd7633]

Yes I agree. But they haven't. They will have to buy their team this off-season, because they aren't showing any signs of being able to to build anything.

 

[Shanemansj13]

And they still aren't top 4 in the East now LOL

Congrats on winning a meaningless regular season game but either way you will again get to a 1st or 2nd round matchup and lose.

Wait, if we're middle of the pack, what the fuck does that make the Lakers - Or better yet, your alleged "favorite team" the Cavs?

Jesus Christ @ the IQ level of this board.

I'll be celebrating that I don't have to watch the dying vestiges of a formerly great franchise again until the Fall.
