    Thank you Mr. Rambis for staying with us and giving us these gold pieces of info. It's relieving for me to know we have someone with great information. However this goes/ends we've been lucky to have you and I hope you stay with us for many years to come

    Edit: Love the verified sticker/symbol next to your name now. Great touch @Barnstable or whoever did that.

    @mrrambis Is Klay Thompson in play if Kawhi doesn’t commit? There were reports yesterday that he had agreed to resign, but no confirmation today.

    Happy to see Mr. Rambis was being a good sport about it despite some of the justifiable hate he was receiving. Usually insiders on forums only pop in every now and then but he legit feels like a part of this community. Dunno if that's what it was like on CL back in the day.

    Low key tho I'm more looking forward to Summer league than anything else rn

    When they say tonight, does it include 12:01AM July 1st? o.o

    Good or bad, I want to be there when the news is announced. I gotta be awake for it.

    What do you guys think of this? Raps fan saying KL already decided and has a clip of his decision on their show. Watch the last few seconds...

    Back on CL we had Gumbygld who turned out to be Ariza's agent giving insider info, but he wasn't around nearly as often as Mr. Rambis is.

    Thanks for joining the brotherhood of LakersBall

    We'll spit on our hands, cut our palms with Knives and shake bloody hands later. To make it official and binding and all. And going forward, if anyone gives you crap, you now have an extra team of digital ninjas who may or may not come to your aid whenever you call.

    By the way, it's jump in, and jump out. Don't cross anyone here. Bad things happen.

    Hey welcome to the site.

    Free Agency moratorium started today at 3PM Pacific/6PM Eastern today, which is why all the news of players agreeing to sign to teams have already broke.

    All we’re waiting for now is for Kawhi to meet with us and the Raps to make his decision.

    @jordan-esque Very funny! In all seriousness though, Asian and worldwide revenue projections were a part of the discussion with New Balance. However, you have to be careful, as given the financial situations of many consumers in those countries, many of the Laker-related merchandise (and consequently any New Balance sneakers) are generally knock offs, meaning no direct income for Kawhi (of course there is an indirect component due to increased brand exposure) .
