    At first I thought it said "I can't wait for him to go this off season"

    So I am old. Is the ape in Bev's tweet supposed to represent Donkey Kong? So it reads, "It's on like Donkey Kong" or am I way out of the loop?

    He has 47 million damn good reasons to shut up and play IMO.

    Dude had 44 million of those same reasons last season and he was a dumpster fire...a biohazard dumpster outside a liposuction clinic where the fat burns day and night.

    Yeah I’m actually not sure either, but that’s a solid guess on your part lol. I had just taken it as a general expression of strength and buying in together, thinking of the “Ape together strong” line from Planet of the Apes.

    But just for fun, I’m going to chose to interpret that emoji as representing King Kong. And I’m going to assume Pat Bev stumbled upon this video where Russ is Godzilla:



    So in actuality, these are fighting words from Pat Bev and a sign that a Russ trade is imminent

    :KobeYoureWelcome:

    EDIT: Damn this lame attempt at a joke backfired, because they literally just announced that Kong and Godzilla are teaming up in their next movie instead of fighting each other :D

    The 45M did nothing for his play last year. In all the areas it was really bad plus the bad attitude. Irregardless of LeBron and AD's health. The two things exist separately. They were the reason we missed the playoffs. He was the reason he played poorly.

    That said, and as has been said by many including me, if he ever wants to sniff a TP MLE or higher again, he has to have a 180 turnaround of a year this year.

    can't wait for Beverly to tell Westbrook he'll help him on his defensive skills

    :Laugh:

    turn stuff up a notch. Maybe this is what Westbrook needs. A little rat in his ear telling him he ain't s*** and can't guard his shadow.

    :THT Heart Hands:

    Get ready for THT to be most improved player in the next year or two.

    probably this coming season. he's going to ball out in utah, especially if mitchell is dealt

    he might have been a bad fit on this current roster but there will be a day where lebron is no longer here and THT could have been a valuable piece

    this is the problem with any win now situation

    but especially an LBJ team. When he's gone, there will be nothing in the cupboard. It will be BARE. No talent, no draft picks, nada.

    :Lebronsmoking: <------- Doesn't care.

    Last year was last year. I'm all for moving on and giving Russ another bite at the apple. That being said, he gets zero sympathy and excuses from me this season. Darvin Ham went out of his way to embrace Brodie IMO. He gotta put up or shut up this season.

    If you guys were around during the TLN days in 2009 I really wanted Beverley and I think we did draft him but traded him.

    We really wasted some of those draft picks man SMH (I remember Sasha getting traded with a 1st round pick for Joe Smith)

    A glimpse of the potential we’re going to miss out on, gonna miss you THT! :(

    (I don’t know why it says “sensitive content”, it’s just a highlight reel)
