    those 94/95 and 95/96 teams are still two of my all time favorite lakers teams. guys like EJ, nick the quick, ceballos, peeler, and divac were so much fun to watch

    ding ding ding! also, he scored a TON of points with fans and media by trashing guys who found ways out of bad situations...then did worse! and he's STILL got people in the press carrying his water. gtfo...

    LOVE that that nba sent a shot across his (and really, pat riley's) bow. we didn't come up with these provisions to keep guys in small markets for them to sign the huge deals and THEN ask out. nope. enjoy indiana or whatever.

    yeah, i forgot about that when i was making my projections the other day. i gave them credit for continuity, but their health was freaky last year. like "no way that happens again" freaky. they won't be a top-4 seed again.

    For that past era someone coined, “If Julius Irving was a doctor, Elgin Baylor was a brain surgeon”

    Then there was the moron sculptor that put all the motion blur crap hanging off the back of his shot in front of (Staples) :swear:

    Kobe, Bron, Duncan, Shaq and Bird would dominate half of those guys from his list. So would Steph and Hakeem actually.

    The league has never experienced an in shape Luka who doesn't wear down by the 4th quarter. Should be fun to watch.

    Loss the beer weight. Wasn't having to drown his sorrows in booze since they gave him a really good off season and they're still trying to find a way to add Capela.

    Man....Crawford beat the brakes off of Spence last night! I thoroughly enjoyed relieving my brother of 300 bucks from that fight. Lol..I'm hoping that he wants to double our Lakers/Rockets wagers this season.

    The thing is, he actually came into camp/the season last year in pretty good shape if I remember correctly. Somehow, he managed to put on bad weight during the season lol. Idk what podcast I was listening to, but someone was saying that he was at Mavs' practice and they pitchers of sweet tea on the sideline and Luka will just walk over and drinking a bunch of it in the middle of practice.
