    D'Angelo looking like a man.

    I still firmly believe he has superstar potential. It will all depend on his focus.

    Yeah, I strongly agree. He will be a star in this league, but he has to stay focused and give his 100% at all times.

    2 games, 2 dunks ;) He had like one the entire last season :giggle:, definitely got stronger and more explosive. Still a long way to go though, just keep up the hard work.

    and take it one game at a time. And let the chips fall where they may, and play with a sense of urgency.

    I didn't see Mitch at the game, but Bickerstaff was out in the cab line like a regular person.

    If he doesn't average 40, he'll be cut. 50, he'll be benched, but he'll stay on the roster. 60, he might earn some serious minutes.

    Crazy when Larry said he knew that shot by D'Angelo was going in I knew it too. I trust him with the ball in his hands in crunch time. I just love guys who want that moment and won't be shied away by failure. Summer League, Pre-Season, regular season, Playoffs, Finals it doesn't matter the situation. D'Angelo will be willing to take and make or miss those shots. There are just certain players who have a look in their eye, who want the ball, who have that killer and assassin mentality.

    Wow that shot of Mitch enjoying that moment is golden after all the tension and heat continuously he has to deal with in our "soap opera" on top of making great GM decisions. That was a special moment. Just finished watching that good gif of the last shot sequence with Nance's great pick and the against all odds bomb delivered five straight times. Packed arena of Lakers fans, playoff atmosphere and BOOM!! Great moment, great shot DAR. In his post game on court interview D'Angelo said it was a great play drawn up by coach Mermuys ..... like he knew just what to do. (paraphrasing)

    OK I will be the dumb kid and ask what this means? I started seeing it like 2 weeks ago with footage or a photo of him around KAT. Figured it was funny and good.
