    All the tea leaves are hinting at LeBron committing relatively quickly to the Lakers. Let’s assume that’s true for this premise:

    Say PG is legitimately torn on his decision & is maybe even leaning toward staying in OKC (I’m still not buying it, but I’ll play devil’s advocate).

    Now, say he meets with the Lakers brass, and he’s sitting in a room with Magic freaking Johnson and LeBron motha F’in James. And they’re BEGGING him to play for the team he’s been pining to play on for most of his life. Is anyone honestly thinking it’s plausible he walks out of that room and says “No, thanks” to all of that?

    I just don’t see that happening.

    Apropos of nothing: Ya know what I just now realized is a NSFW pun-tastic name?

    Yeah, he thought the same and unfortunately he "pulled out" more than just a rabbit out that "trick".

    I mean he had a "hat"... shoulda used it the right way. But no doubt its still magic, cause it seems like he made it all disappear without much aid. ;)

    Recent media narratives:
    - PG leaning towards OKC
    - If nobody joins Lebron, then it’s a hit to recruiting rep

    This is a perfect Hollywood script for Lebron to be the first domino. He commits and then George will follow.

    George must be honestly brain damaged, to even entertain the possibility of staying in OKC. Im not sure i want to root for a r*****.

    “Our team is led by a douchey narcissist and a r*****”

    What a free agent haul we’re going after

    I’m guessing his voice sounds like Michael Jackson. But nobody really knows.

    Us Riverside natives are all very quiet by nature.

    My mood was exactly like Jerry's and Kareem's faces in that pic. Devastation.

    They had similar reports that KD was staying too.

    Life's givens:

    Death and taxes...
    The sun setting in the West.
    @KareemtheGreat33 always taking the opportunity to nail Kupchak.

    Always good for laughs...
