    did that slick clown delete his account? noticed he hasn't been around since the season began to remind us about how last year's failure of a season was because of injuries

    wanted to ask him if that's still the concern through 3 games and it looks like he's gone

    Lakers looked as good as I've seen since AD got hurt against Phoenix and then Russ came in

    damn. i wanted to see how he would try to explain to us that the 0-3 start is because of lebron and AD being injured and that the team needs more time together to grow chemistry

    If the Lakers had Hield or Rozier or Irving it's actually easy to counter Center in the paint for Russ.

    If he sets a pick on either of these two guys then ball handler in the PnR will have an open 3 if they go under or a pull up mid range of a drop but the Lakers dont because they haven't traded Russ yet!

    So sit him f***ing down in the 4th quarter

    Which is quite a feat considering last year's team was trash

    Nobody will ever be able to convince that up until this point, there was a worse Laker trade.

    I gave Russ the benefit of the doubt last season. But this is just absolute rubbish. I think he’ll get to 10 games based on Ham’s respect and if he doesn’t improve he’ll be benched or potentially out of the rotation all together.

    And at this point it’s necessary. We need shooting in the worst way as well.

    You know, I wouldn’t even call it the panic button. More like hitting the reality button at this point.

    AD and LeBron are ready to roll. Are they really going to flush the season down the toilet? We’re 2-1 with even middle of the road shooting.

    Can't wait for the teams to attempt to lower asking price; AD and LBJ will check out by 20 games if Rob waits...

    Everyone knew this was going to happen except maybe Ham. Rob knows it ain’t working but BRICK is so useless he needs two FRPs to move.

    Nah, svtzr is cool with me and not in the same category. He keeps it respectful and never sinks low with the personal attacks.

    Cheers man! I know I have strong views but try to keep it respectful where I can.

    I’m also not above admitting I was wrong.

    The REALITY button was broken when Rob filled the roster with 351 small guards who can’t shoot, FAILED to move Brick, and FAILED again to surround AD and LeBronze with League average players who can play both ends of the floor.
