    I'm gonna take a guess that Melo will stay retired because his heart won't allow him to be a 6th option off the bench. It's likely Carmelo has played his NBA career out.

    For all the crap that has gone on with our FO at least we aren’t Houston who seems like a dumpster fire from players to owner or the Wizards who don’t even have a GM in place. It’s bad in Houston right now.

    But we get it 100x worse because we are in the spotlight.

    The media hypocrisy is wild!



    I dare anybody to watch this clip and tell me that Woj doesn't have an anti-Laker agenda.

    He looks as depressed as Danny Ainge, likely. What a douche bag. Had nothing good to say. Zero.

    he didn't actually say it wasn't likely. he said NO wasn't currently expecting to move the date.

    and yeah, which is it, woj? he's acting like no third max is a death sentence, then he's like "winning teams have depth". hedge much? basically, the lakers can't be in a good position.

    the two former players know, though. they know. that's anthony davis and lebron james. enjoy your calculator; send danny my condolences on the war chest.

    Let's look at the bright side. Lakers won't have to travel in one of the rounds next year when they play the Clippers. That's hella good.

    Yeah and they'll be playing 7 straight home games because Lakers fans will take over Clippers home games per usual.

    The continued deterioration of the always overrated Danny Ainge and their useless draft picks has been a pleasant one only because of the fact that this false narrative of them creating this juggernaut was always a fallacy. As good as Jason Tatum was, he will never be a #1. Jaylen Brown is a good player and that's it. Gordon Hayward is a good player. Marcus Smart is a good player. Unfortunately several good players do not work. You need a true star or stars in the 1 and 2 spots.

    In conclusion. f*** the C Bags I hope they burn to hell. Yah, I said it. Eat it chowder clowns.

    I'll add a PS here as well, and this is more life advice for all. Your assets do not mean s*** until you cash them in. Always remember that in all facets of life. And if you are smart, those assets you cash in, make sure you can create a residual pipeline. No, I am not talking about Multi-Level Marketing, Pyramid scam programs. I am talking about real assets that create real returns that help your livelihood.

    Remember all the teams that kicked us when we were already down? Yeah I remember. Now we got Lebron and AD and free agency hasn’t even started yet.

    and the players we are after aren't fat
