    It was a joke from The Office, but I couldn't find the actual clip... Dwight is eager for Beach Day and nobody else is... Michael tells him to relax and that his enthusiasm is is turning people off.

    Not all jokes are winners.

    Who's this "Brad" on the right? Totally dissed DLo and said it was a blown #2 pick. BS.

    Brad Turner. He's been following LA sports a long time.

    I actually stopped watching because I loathe Plasche. I do not respect that man.

    Funny, as far as writing I think Plasche has gotten better in recent years.

    He's not a bad writer, I just don't respect him as a person.

    Great. Whatever. D. Russell was not a blown pick at 2. What a jerk thing to say and it's groundless.

    If not D'Angelo, who should we have taken?

    I'll bet you most people say Porzingis or Booker. Turner should probably be mentioned. I like all three of those guys, but anyone in the media pretending like they didn't love our pick when it happened needs to be called out.

    I was firmly in the Okafor camp, but IMO, the Lakers made the right choice. Porzingis and Booker are more popular, but I still feel D'Angelo will be better over the long haul.

    Yeah we were firmly wrong about Okafor. :D

    I think Booker has a shot to be better, but he's overrated after that 70 point game he had. Porzingis is vastly overrated by the majority of fans. I like both, but Russell has as good a shot to be great as either of those two.

    Hey real what don't you not like about Plaschke as a person?

    Only thing I can see him irritating you, it's that when he says a statement there's not a lot of humbleness in it. Like the only problem talking like a know it all, is when you have tunnel vision on what you're talking about.
    That's the only thing I can see rubbing people the wrong way.

    Might be a bit off topic but funny...

    Notice the two heads when they transition from Magic to Lavar?

    Oh, this happened.
    Everyone forgot or what? Didn't hear a mention of it on ESPN710 when I listened this morning.
