Oct 4, 2024 7:52 PM - KuzmoBall17: JJ finally called time out
Oct 4, 2024 7:53 PM - Weezy: We don’t really have the personnel to shoot threes like JJ wants to. But who knows maybe they get into rhythms
Oct 4, 2024 7:54 PM - Weezy: Also a lot to ask of him to make Jaxon Hayes work
Oct 4, 2024 7:54 PM - CZ Eddie: How do you post pictures in here?
Oct 4, 2024 7:55 PM - Juronimo: Ayo what's good Laker fam
Oct 4, 2024 7:55 PM - Weezy: Tap on the little tree looking icon and post the link between the IMG Tags
Oct 4, 2024 7:56 PM - Juronimo: These rims are like playground rims with the thud with each brick
Oct 4, 2024 7:56 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Hey Juronimo. Looking forward to Lakers games. I had a finger surgery, but have been getting back to tennis and shooting hoops, so that is a positive.
Oct 4, 2024 7:57 PM - Weezy: Reaves is shooting like he didn’t touch a basketball all summer
Oct 4, 2024 7:57 PM - Weezy: Nice shot from JHS
Oct 4, 2024 7:58 PM - KuzmoBall17: He didn't play in Olympics.If course he didn't touch it lol
Oct 4, 2024 7:58 PM - Weezy: Dalton had to guard Reid his first possession haha, someone help the poor kid
Oct 4, 2024 7:59 PM - Juronimo: What's good showtime mamba have a speedy recovery
Oct 4, 2024 7:59 PM - KuzmoBall17: Austin another miss
Oct 4, 2024 7:59 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Thank you Juronimo, at the healing and physio exercise stage.
Oct 4, 2024 8:04 PM - Weezy: Why do challenges still take this long?
Oct 4, 2024 8:05 PM - CZ Eddie: Las Vegas Aces up by 18, trying to avoid a sweep
Oct 4, 2024 8:05 PM - KuzmoBall17: Gabe is in
Oct 4, 2024 8:05 PM - CZ Eddie:
Oct 4, 2024 8:07 PM - Weezy: Knecht with 2 buckets in a row
Oct 4, 2024 8:07 PM - KuzmoBall17: C'mon.It took forever
Oct 4, 2024 8:07 PM - wallangong: Max and Knecht look good early
Oct 4, 2024 8:07 PM - Juronimo: @Weezy I know right, it almost makes me wish we didn't have them
Oct 4, 2024 8:09 PM - Weezy: I like what Stu said, if you can’t figure it out within like 30 seconds just stick with the call on the floor. In actual games, maybe make that a minute tops
Oct 4, 2024 8:09 PM - Cookie: How are we looking? I’m busy and can’t watch.
Oct 4, 2024 8:10 PM - Weezy: About as expected with no LeBron and AD I’d say
Oct 4, 2024 8:10 PM - Cookie: Thanks Weezy.
Oct 4, 2024 8:10 PM - Weezy: 1-7 on threes, pretty typical
Oct 4, 2024 8:11 PM - Ceteris21: Hello guys, we back again
Oct 4, 2024 8:11 PM - Weezy: Max looks good, JHS hit a nice shot, Knecht made a couple
Oct 4, 2024 8:11 PM - Cookie: Glad some things stay the same lol

 

Oct 4, 2024 at 8:11 PM - Ceteris21: Still can't shoot lool
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:11 PM - Weezy: Haha yeah
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:12 PM - Weezy: Man every year it feels like every team except us can just effortlessly shoot
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:13 PM - Ceteris21: The curse is real
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:13 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Lakers playing small. JJ wanna see how his rotation players do tonight
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:13 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Is Koloko cleared to play?
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:13 PM - OX1947: It’s not a curse. Stupid a** management didn’t die jack**** to improve their deficiencies.
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:15 PM - Ceteris21: It will be really stupid if koloko isn't cleared and we gave up Hinson
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:18 PM - Punk-101: Are we gonna shoot 20% on 3s for the first 1/4 of the season like the past few years?
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:18 PM - Slick2021: Bosh gave up after 3 years of trying to get cleared with bloodcots
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:19 PM - OX1947: Bigger worry isn’t Hinson, worry is if the blood clot Koloko has doesn’t heal, Hayes is the only back up for AD. AD playing 38-40 minutes all year
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:19 PM - Slick2021: It's a serious issue
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:20 PM - Weezy: We just don’t have any big players right now. Lebron, AD, Vando, Wood all out
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:20 PM - Slick2021: No worries..Rob is going to get us a big bruiser. Maybe
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:20 PM - OX1947: Ya, he’s gonna bruise his nuts until he spews it out
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:22 PM - Slick2021: Lol
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:22 PM - Slick2021: Tinkerbell with a new hairdo..yikes
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:23 PM - KuzmoBall17: Where's Castleton
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:23 PM - OX1947: Junior grew his hair out so he can measure taller. Change my mind…
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:23 PM - Weezy: Oh yeah I forgot about castleton haha
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:23 PM - Juronimo: Julius Randle is a timber wolf now
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:24 PM - Juronimo: He was part of the Kat trade I take it
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:24 PM - Weezy: Makes them a more likable team for me, I really don’t like Towns
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:25 PM - Weezy: Nice block by Bronny
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:25 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Another block and assist by Bronny
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:26 PM - Weezy: Max with the rejection!
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:26 PM - Juronimo: Ugly
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:27 PM - Juronimo: Tons of thuds it's preseason
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:27 PM - Weezy: We are 2-12 from 3. Already in mid-season form
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:27 PM - CZ Eddie: They aren't kidding, those are loud hoops
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:28 PM - Slick2021: Can we score a 100 tonight?
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:28 PM - CZ Eddie: Castleton will play in the second half and Jaxson will sit
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:28 PM - KareemtheGreat33: No way slick
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:28 PM - Juronimo: This game reminds me of when I was a bricklayer on chain link net outdoor courts as a kid
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:29 PM - CZ Eddie: Never heard of this arena before. -------------- "Acrisure Arena is a multi-purpose indoor arena in the city of Palm Desert in Riverside County, California, United States. The arena opened in December 2022 on 43.35 acres of land in the Coachella Valley between Interstate 10 and the Classic Club golf course. "

 

Oct 4, 2024 at 8:30 PM - Ceteris21: Is this basically our roster if Bron and AD are injured?
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:30 PM - OX1947: Dalton might be the 3rd best player tonight already
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:31 PM - OX1947: 4th for sure
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:31 PM - Juronimo: Yes
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:32 PM - Slick2021: Is JHS supposed to be a SF now?
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:32 PM - KareemtheGreat33: Nice gabe
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:33 PM - CZ Eddie: Hope Vincent has a year that's even just 80% of what he was back in Miami
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:33 PM - Slick2021: We are running a 4 guard offense
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:34 PM - Slick2021: Innovative
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:34 PM - KareemtheGreat33: my boy jhs
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:35 PM - KareemtheGreat33: Gabe3
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:35 PM - KuzmoBall17: -14
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:35 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Gabe looked good from 3. Looking for positives.
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:35 PM - KuzmoBall17: Comeback
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:36 PM - Juronimo: Good defensive recovery
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:36 PM - The Showtime Mamba: On a high from not having Ham around. Rondo is on the Bucks squad, hopefully he fist fights ham and ham gets canned. Rondo assistant coach position.
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:36 PM - KuzmoBall17: Gabe,JHS and Bronny all missing last season
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:37 PM - KuzmoBall17: Austin 3
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:37 PM - KuzmoBall17: Finally
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:37 PM - KareemtheGreat33: My boy Is a rim protector
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:37 PM - Ceteris21: Active hands on defense, good start
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:38 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Get it down to 10 by halftime and see how it goes.
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:38 PM - Weezy: JHS looks better all around so far, much more confident than last season
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:39 PM - Ceteris21: Heard he got stronger
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:39 PM - KareemtheGreat33: JHS was playing out of position he is a Pf
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: Haha I guess so
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:41 PM - Juronimo: Reeves with the farmers tan 3
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:41 PM - CZ Eddie: NINE point game
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:42 PM - Weezy: Down to 9, not bad, I like our defensive effort even with a super undersized roster
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:42 PM - OX1947: Don’t call it a come back! They’ve been here for years!
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:42 PM - Juronimo: Good way to close the half
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:42 PM - Slick2021: They need to oil those rims or something.
Oct 4, 2024 at 8:43 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Nine, happy with that. Didn't roll over. Now if we can win that third quarter.

 

Oct 4, 2024 9:07 PM - CZ Eddie: is this thing broken? do I need to pook it with a stick?
Oct 4, 2024 9:12 PM - CZ Eddie: Castleton alert! I need the UNLV vs Syracuse NCAAF game to end asap so I can get back to my Lakers
Oct 4, 2024 9:12 PM - The Showtime Mamba: DLO classic form and then badly missing.
Oct 4, 2024 9:14 PM - OX1947: Come on guys, you weathered the storm, win these games for once
Oct 4, 2024 9:15 PM - OX1947: Yes! Come on! Let’s go!
Oct 4, 2024 9:16 PM - KuzmoBall17: -6
Oct 4, 2024 9:16 PM - KuzmoBall17: JJ doing some work
Oct 4, 2024 9:17 PM - OX1947: Knecht 3!
Oct 4, 2024 9:17 PM - OX1947: Fuuuuuuu. Just make a stop for once
Oct 4, 2024 9:17 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Come back
Oct 4, 2024 9:17 PM - OX1947: Yes!!! Nice pass Castleton!
Oct 4, 2024 9:17 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Gabe and 1
Oct 4, 2024 9:17 PM - The Showtime Mamba: KNECHT CONNECTS

Oct 4, 2024 9:18 PM - LALakersFan4Life: 80
Oct 4, 2024 9:18 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Gabe hits another 3
Oct 4, 2024 9:19 PM - LALakersFan4Life: 84-83 Wolves
Oct 4, 2024 9:19 PM - OX1947: Gabe!!!
Oct 4, 2024 9:19 PM - Juronimo: 1 point game
Oct 4, 2024 9:20 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Vincent Price Vincent Thrice!
Oct 4, 2024 9:21 PM - OX1947: Hahahaha
Oct 4, 2024 9:22 PM - OX1947: That doesn’t make sense
Oct 4, 2024 9:24 PM - OX1947: Come on Hood
Oct 4, 2024 9:24 PM - OX1947: God damn it!
Oct 4, 2024 9:25 PM - OX1947: Castleton!
Oct 4, 2024 9:26 PM - KuzmoBall17: Traore .2 points game
Oct 4, 2024 9:26 PM - The Showtime Mamba: A block. I am hyped for the first time this start of the season!
Oct 4, 2024 9:27 PM - KuzmoBall17: Connect 4 missed 3
Oct 4, 2024 9:28 PM - KuzmoBall17: -7
Oct 4, 2024 9:28 PM - KuzmoBall17: Is JJ want comeback
Oct 4, 2024 9:33 PM - KuzmoBall17: Who is Kelley
Oct 4, 2024 9:37 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Not RYan lol
Oct 4, 2024 9:38 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Glad he fouled him after pushing like that. Hope it was on purpose too.
Oct 4, 2024 9:38 PM - KuzmoBall17: Castleton, Traore ,Kelley look out NBA
Oct 4, 2024 9:39 PM - KuzmoBall17: Who needs Davis

 

Oct 4, 2024 at 9:47 PM - KuzmoBall17: Blowout Lol
Oct 4, 2024 at 9:48 PM - LALakersFan4Life: We want Koloko
Oct 4, 2024 at 9:55 PM - KuzmoBall17: Bronny scored
Oct 4, 2024 at 9:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: When is parade?

 

Oct 6, 2024 6:33 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Ready for some action?
Oct 6, 2024 6:40 PM - ZenMaster: lol
Oct 6, 2024 6:40 PM - ZenMaster: Mamba, my man
Oct 6, 2024 6:43 PM - The Showtime Mamba: This pre-season has been fun this year. Can't say that often.
Oct 6, 2024 6:44 PM - KuzmoBall17:
Oct 6, 2024 6:45 PM - KuzmoBall17: We are unstoppable,when is parade
Oct 6, 2024 6:45 PM - KuzmoBall17: AD with 3
Oct 6, 2024 6:46 PM - KuzmoBall17: Can't remember when was last time
Oct 6, 2024 6:46 PM - ZenMaster: lol
Oct 6, 2024 6:46 PM - KuzmoBall17: Hey Zen.How are you
Oct 6, 2024 6:46 PM - ZenMaster: what with the rim mics... that clank sound is awful
Oct 6, 2024 6:47 PM - ZenMaster: you know... rockets and s***
Oct 6, 2024 6:47 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Yes the clank sounds very harsh.
Oct 6, 2024 6:47 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Nice block Bronson
Oct 6, 2024 6:48 PM - KuzmoBall17: Maybe it's because hot in the desert
Oct 6, 2024 6:49 PM - Weezy: Haha yeah we had to hear those rims the entire last game
Oct 6, 2024 6:49 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Block number 2 for lebronny from the block
Oct 6, 2024 6:50 PM - ZenMaster: Where's K4?
Oct 6, 2024 6:50 PM - Weezy: The old man is already gassed, welcome to year 22
Oct 6, 2024 6:50 PM - ZenMaster: Father time's gonna get everyone
Oct 6, 2024 6:51 PM - Weezy: I think Knecht subs in for Rui
Oct 6, 2024 6:51 PM - ZenMaster: Max for Bron
Oct 6, 2024 6:51 PM - ZenMaster: Max did well last game
Oct 6, 2024 6:52 PM - Weezy: You’d have to think Max will have a much better season. Partially just body growth, mental growth, but also Ham didn’t know how to use him
Oct 6, 2024 6:53 PM - ZenMaster: if Max can be send to defend Beals of the world, he's a treasure. Not in that last play though lol
Oct 6, 2024 6:54 PM - ZenMaster: PG Reaves
Oct 6, 2024 6:54 PM - Weezy: Gross, Grayson Allen
Oct 6, 2024 6:54 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Ham didn't know how to use anybody. I am putting him below Brown on worst coaches ever in LA. He hung around and did damage.
Oct 6, 2024 6:54 PM - ZenMaster: that's not a foul
Oct 6, 2024 6:55 PM - Weezy: It is in this soft a** league
Oct 6, 2024 6:55 PM - ZenMaster: Rui\s been nice diving
Oct 6, 2024 6:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: If that's foul on Booker should be on D-lo too
Oct 6, 2024 6:56 PM - Weezy: We’ve finally caught up to the rest of the NBA,
Oct 6, 2024 6:57 PM - Weezy: Now we just chuck threes too
Oct 6, 2024 6:57 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Smooth dlo 3

 

Oct 6, 2024 at 6:57 PM - KuzmoBall17: But whatever it's a preseason
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:57 PM - ZenMaster: AR magic
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:57 PM - KuzmoBall17: JJ want them to shoot 3
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:57 PM - Weezy: Reaves to Max!
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:58 PM - ZenMaster: Pistole Reaves
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:58 PM - Barnstable: Austin!!!
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:58 PM - Weezy: Reaves what a layup!
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:58 PM - Barnstable: It’s so nice to see actual sets run instead of just winging it out there
Oct 6, 2024 at 6:59 PM - ZenMaster: that an O foul on PiecePfShitson Allen
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:02 PM - Barnstable: I like that the offensive sets have been starting with Austin more and having Dlo space and run off ball
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:03 PM - ZenMaster: where's K4? Why is a dead man in before him?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:03 PM - ZenMaster: And Bron brings the ball up... what the point?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:03 PM - KuzmoBall17: 10 assists lol
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:04 PM - KuzmoBall17: JJ can coach
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:04 PM - ZenMaster: And AR is back. odd
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:04 PM - ZenMaster: Gabe AR Max Bron Jax.... odd
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:05 PM - ZenMaster: Jax man
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:05 PM - ZenMaster: Rodman s*** right there
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:05 PM - ZenMaster: AR with his 3rd.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:05 PM - ZenMaster: Dumb... IKMO
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:06 PM - The Showtime Mamba: JJ coaching well makes me said for Hamtastroophy. Oh well we had injuries too.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:06 PM - Barnstable: I guess JJ wants to see how some weird lineups work together. I don’t hate it, but minutes need to be managed well
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:07 PM - ZenMaster: I guess he's gonna use all starter mins in 1st half and sit them the rest of the game
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:07 PM - Weezy: If we’re healthy and playing a 9 man rotation, realistically Knecht isn’t gonna see the floor much
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:07 PM - ZenMaster: which is dumb
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:07 PM - Weezy: There just aren’t a lot of minutes to go around, Reaves and Max play the 2, Rui and Vando play the 3
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:08 PM - ZenMaster: Vando is dead
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:08 PM - Barnstable: Yeah Knecht needs to play
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:08 PM - ZenMaster: And there should be no reason for some 10 min...focused forcefeediong. He is apparently quite good at that high usage s***
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:09 PM - Weezy: I’m sure he’s going to play, but not as much as some would hope. He’s a rookie, he can score but his defense needs work, expectations should be tempered
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:09 PM - ZenMaster: no reason TO NOT HAVE ... "forcefeeding"
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:10 PM - ZenMaster: I view him as a lottery pick. He was not far off anyway and appears to be more ready... You draft a player in (what basically is) lottery, you better play him.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:10 PM - Juronimo: Just caught up on dvr, what's good Laker fam
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:10 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Lakers defense looking good so far against the Suns starting rotation
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:10 PM - Weezy: Ok, but again, play him over who?

 

Oct 6, 2024 at 7:10 PM - ZenMaster: So Pimple is still stupid @Juronimo
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:11 PM - Barnstable: I’m just unreasonably hyped for Dalton. It doesn’t need to make sense
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:11 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Jazz want at least 2 First round picks for Kessler. Rob said he's willing to give up 1st round picks. Make it happen, Rob
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:11 PM - ZenMaster: @Weezy Good question.... I guess depends on who rolls. For example, if Rui sucks, or Gabe dies...
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:11 PM - Weezy: We gave big contracts to Reaves, Rui, Max, and Vando is one of our only defensive players, so he’s behind those guys currently
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:11 PM - Juronimo: So far, a ludabrow 3, pistol pete Reeves, s couple of LeBron blocks, nice passing overall and tons of bricks from 3
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:12 PM - ZenMaster: Vando is dead man. You can cross him off the lineupe lists
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:12 PM - KuzmoBall17: Bronny and Bron in the game.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - ZenMaster: k4 with D
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - Barnstable: Nice d Knecht
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - Weezy: He’s going to get time, injuries happen, but I’ll get it if he doesn’t play a lot at first. If we were actually rebuilding I could see him being forced out there, but we’re still pretending to contend, straddling that line of developing youth and playing 2 superstars
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - ZenMaster: Bronny with a crab dribble lol
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Hopefully LeBron can rest now
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - Juronimo: So no more cp360 on the suns
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - ZenMaster: Jax looks nice
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:13 PM - Weezy: Now Bronny; that’s a player that has no business getting any minutes in a real NBA game
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:14 PM - ZenMaster: Yeah
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:14 PM - Weezy: Other than the obligatory putting him in to share the floor with LeBron for the history aspect
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:14 PM - Barnstable: Yeah Bronny isn’t really ready, but it’s preseason so whatever
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:14 PM - ZenMaster: Tell you what... k4 defends. Or at least tries
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:15 PM - Weezy: No im glad he’s playing now, he needs all the reps he can get
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:15 PM - Weezy: Knecht is athletic enough to defend, hopefully he can learn quick, his technique just hasn’t been great to this point
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:15 PM - Juronimo: Le3
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:16 PM - ZenMaster: agh... k4... man. get a clue of your env.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:16 PM - Juronimo: This is a lineup we hopefully never see in the regular season
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:17 PM - ZenMaster: lol
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:17 PM - ZenMaster: Why Castle never plays is another discussion
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:17 PM - Weezy: Awful line up lol
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:17 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Bye bye respectable lead
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:17 PM - Juronimo: Castle isn't that good
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:18 PM - Weezy: I think he just isn’t very good
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:18 PM - ZenMaster: is he really that much worse than a plumlee, for like 7 minutes a game?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:19 PM - Weezy: Yes
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:19 PM - Juronimo: Yes
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:19 PM - Weezy: Plumlee is thick, strong

 

Oct 6, 2024 at 7:19 PM - Weezy: Solid
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:19 PM - Juronimo: Plumlee is a beefy dude who takes up a lot is space
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:19 PM - ZenMaster: for 5 - 7 minutes... not sure there is THAT big of a difference, when the alternative is Jax. Who I like, but he's not Plumlee either
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:20 PM - Weezy: Hayes is a lob threat though. Castleton isn’t anything threat
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:20 PM - ZenMaster: CC isn't smaller than Plumlee. BTW.... interesting that out of the 3 Plum-bros, he's the last one standing
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:20 PM - KuzmoBall17: For 5-7 minutes Kolokko will play when he's allowed
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:20 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Plumlee would have been a good pick up. I like how he plays.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:20 PM - ZenMaster: You put CC at the top of the key, ala Joker.. takes a rim protector out
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:21 PM - Weezy: Uh, have you seen castleton’s arms?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:21 PM - Weezy: He is absolutely smaller than Plumlee, it’s not a height thing, it’s a size thing
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:21 PM - ZenMaster: yeah... but he has a nice base. solid. thick
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:21 PM - Barnstable: LeBron the cheat code
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:21 PM - Weezy: Meh. I just don’t see it with him, he’s not thar good at any one thing
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:22 PM - KuzmoBall17: Bronny almost
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:22 PM - ZenMaster: it's alive
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:22 PM - Barnstable: Nice play for Gabe!!
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:23 PM - Barnstable: Gave looking like an NBA player again
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:23 PM - ZenMaster: not liking the cups marks on Gabe's shoulder. Prolly gonna die again soon
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:23 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Lol I forgot about Bradley Beal. #nominalbig3
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:23 PM - Juronimo: It's cause he's been hurt for 3 years ir so
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:24 PM - The Showtime Mamba: cup marks or wounds from lamprey bites?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:25 PM - Juronimo: Lamprey, that's an eel ir a snake?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:25 PM - The Showtime Mamba: An eel is what everyone calls it. I think it may technically be a fish.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:26 PM - Juronimo: I've had eel before
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:26 PM - KuzmoBall17: It's a fish
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:26 PM - The Showtime Mamba: But yeah long fairly solid, not particularly thick with sharp teeth and a donut mouth.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:26 PM - Juronimo: Now I want sushi
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:26 PM - ZenMaster: Eel is nice
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:27 PM - KuzmoBall17: LOL not tacos
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:27 PM - ZenMaster: tacos are an abomination
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:27 PM - KuzmoBall17: Knecht
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:27 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Yes eel is nice. I have had it in sushi and smoked eel that someone caught in a river.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:28 PM - ZenMaster: Japanese have a loooot of eel dishes. Not just sushi. Brits do too.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:29 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I have been eating a lot more salmon and mussels recently.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:31 PM - ZenMaster: Bol Bol looks 50

 

Oct 6, 2024 at 7:31 PM - KuzmoBall17: LeBron3
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:31 PM - KuzmoBall17: LOL
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Bol Bol looks like he has chop sticks for legs.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - Juronimo: He looks just like his dad
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - KuzmoBall17: AD and LeBron can go now
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - ZenMaster: well/./ that's it for me. see you later guys
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - Barnstable: I love the urgency we’re playing with
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - The Showtime Mamba: See you Zen. Nice drive and work by Lebron there.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:33 PM - Barnstable: Night Zen
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:34 PM - Juronimo: How many sons of NBA players are in the league now? There seems to be a lot more now.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:34 PM - Juronimo: C u later Zen
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:34 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I always say start the pre-season with urgency and purpose. I hate this wait till the 20th game of the season garbage.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:34 PM - KuzmoBall17: Bye Zen.See you Thursday vs Atenkompo
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:35 PM - Barnstable: I agree Showtime. JJ has them playing with pourpose
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:36 PM - KuzmoBall17: JJ will win Coach of the year
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:36 PM - Barnstable: Nice steam Max
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:36 PM - Barnstable: *steal
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:37 PM - KuzmoBall17: Denver in Abu Dhabi looked like Lakers under pimple
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:38 PM - Juronimo: Oh Denver gets to enjoy the Westbrook experience
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:38 PM - The Showtime Mamba: LBJ with minimum effort and maximum result.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:39 PM - Juronimo: Whoa what did Ludabrow just do?
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:39 PM - Barnstable: NOIIIIICE first half!!
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:39 PM - KuzmoBall17: 67 points in preseason
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:39 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Beautiful spin from our giant AD.
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:39 PM - KuzmoBall17: 69*
Oct 6, 2024 at 7:59 PM - Barnstable: Rui!
Oct 6, 2024 at 8:11 PM - Juronimo: Rui's jumper is smooth
Oct 6, 2024 at 8:17 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Fan fight
Oct 6, 2024 at 8:18 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Those Laker warm up jackets are fire.
Oct 6, 2024 at 8:20 PM - Juronimo: Spectrum didn't show it
Oct 6, 2024 at 8:24 PM - Juronimo: Garbage time
Oct 6, 2024 at 8:52 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Give the ball to birthday boy for the chance to win the game

 

Oct 10, 2024 5:12 PM - Juronimo: The grease don't cease
Oct 10, 2024 5:12 PM - Juronimo: No Austin tonight
Oct 10, 2024 5:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Oh boy . Prince is going to kill Lakers
Oct 10, 2024 5:14 PM - KuzmoBall17: Doc looks upset
Oct 10, 2024 5:17 PM - KuzmoBall17: What a pass by LeBron
Oct 10, 2024 5:18 PM - KuzmoBall17: To Rui
Oct 10, 2024 5:18 PM - Juronimo: Great defense ludabrow
Oct 10, 2024 5:20 PM - KuzmoBall17: Rui looks energized
Oct 10, 2024 5:20 PM - Juronimo: I like that play by Rui, kept Slomo on his hip for the score
Oct 10, 2024 5:21 PM - Manve77: Howdy!
Oct 10, 2024 5:22 PM - Manve77: Hope no one gets injured tonite)
Oct 10, 2024 5:22 PM - Juronimo: Me too
Oct 10, 2024 5:24 PM - Juronimo: Dame dolla might be hurt
Oct 10, 2024 5:25 PM - KuzmoBall17: AD
Oct 10, 2024 5:25 PM - Juronimo: Uuf rough turnover
Oct 10, 2024 5:26 PM - Weezy: AD needs to stop dribbling so much
Oct 10, 2024 5:27 PM - Manve77: 0-9 run
Oct 10, 2024 5:27 PM - Juronimo: Much better offense that time
Oct 10, 2024 5:28 PM - Juronimo: I don't want Ludabrow handling the ball at the top of the key, get it to him in the high post
Oct 10, 2024 5:29 PM - Juronimo: Or behind the 3 point line
Oct 10, 2024 5:31 PM - Weezy: Boooooo boo this man
Oct 10, 2024 5:31 PM - Manve77: Still worried we have a weak bench....
Oct 10, 2024 5:32 PM - Weezy: Probably because we do haha
Oct 10, 2024 5:33 PM - KuzmoBall17: Gabe3
Oct 10, 2024 5:34 PM - Juronimo: My worry is our lack of size
Oct 10, 2024 5:35 PM - Weezy: It’s ok we’ll make up for our lack of size by playing 80 guards
Oct 10, 2024 5:35 PM - Juronimo: Lol
Oct 10, 2024 5:35 PM - Weezy: A bunch of short guys stacked equal a very tall guy
Oct 10, 2024 5:37 PM - Weezy: I thought we played that quarter pretty well though
Oct 10, 2024 5:39 PM - Weezy: Man some players eyes just light up when they see the purple and gold
Oct 10, 2024 5:41 PM - Juronimo: Olé
Oct 10, 2024 5:41 PM - Weezy: Portis with 20 already wow
Oct 10, 2024 5:44 PM - Weezy: Hayes has been solid during preseason. He’s not great, never has been, but solid enough
Oct 10, 2024 5:48 PM - ZenMaster: we suck again
Oct 10, 2024 5:49 PM - KuzmoBall17:

 

Oct 10, 2024 at 5:51 PM - ZenMaster: lol... i am not seeing any offense so far
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:51 PM - Weezy: Nice running the floor by Rui
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:51 PM - ZenMaster: all those K brothers or who was it... discussing them running horns and whatnot... b*******
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:54 PM - Weezy: Noice shot by Gabe
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:54 PM - Barnstable: JJ really has them playing the right way. Effort all the time
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:54 PM - ZenMaster: effort yes.... easy repeatable out-of-offense shots? no
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:55 PM - KuzmoBall17: Gabe already scored more than last season
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:55 PM - ZenMaster: so far, most of our scores were a result of broken or individual plays
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:55 PM - Weezy: I mean I would imagine it takes time to implement an offense, things will break down and revert to simple play at times as they learn
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:56 PM - ZenMaster: I agree. Just... so far, a lot of the plays inolve DHOs from AD at the top of the key. It's dumb.
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:56 PM - Weezy: Max is not a good passer, he needs to stop playmaking
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:56 PM - ZenMaster: Or high PnR with AD rolling out
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: It's a marathon
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:57 PM - ZenMaster: so was the one with Pimple.
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:57 PM - karacha: how are we doing, guys?
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:57 PM - ZenMaster: meh
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:57 PM - Weezy: Well, I guess hopefully AD will adjust or JJ will not be rigid and will adapt with other players
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:57 PM - ZenMaster: so do i, man
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:58 PM - KuzmoBall17:
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:58 PM - ZenMaster: for instance, for all the talk about how JJ is K4's dad... i've not seen a single play designed for a corner shot for him or... anything
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:58 PM - KuzmoBall17: Where's Bronny.People in Milwaukee want to see him
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:59 PM - Weezy: I think there was a sort of designed play for him in game 1, but yeah not many
Oct 10, 2024 at 5:59 PM - Weezy: Nobody wants to see Bronny except Bronny Sr
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:00 PM - ZenMaster: And here it is "we are playing through AD" Not at the top of the key we aren't. At the low block? Yes, please. But no....
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:01 PM - KuzmoBall17: Portis always play us like Shaq
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:02 PM - Weezy: Wow what a defensive breakdown
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:03 PM - Barnstable: Gabe has already done more in purple and gold than Nunn
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:03 PM - ZenMaster: LOL... Bronny Sr. complaining
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:03 PM - ZenMaster: Gonna be a s***ty season
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:18 PM - Weezy: I think it’ll be a mediocre season. JJ already seems better than Ham, at least he called a timeout when we started flat early on
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:34 PM - KuzmoBall17: Yay Bronny
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:34 PM - karacha: I see Dlo is already in playoff form. That's good.
Oct 10, 2024 at 6:34 PM - KuzmoBall17: Who is number 30
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:04 PM - LALakersFan4Life: 30 is Taore
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:04 PM - Juronimo: Who is 41?

 

Oct 10, 2024 at 7:05 PM - LALakersFan4Life: 41 is Glen Rice jr
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:05 PM - LALakersFan4Life: lol
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:06 PM - Juronimo: Ha
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:06 PM - LALakersFan4Life: 41 is Quincy Olivari
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:06 PM - Juronimo: Dude made 2 3s and caused a turnover in 1 minute
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:09 PM - LALakersFan4Life: That should NOT be called Goaltending
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:09 PM - Juronimo: High energy, someone will give him a job in the league
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:11 PM - Juronimo: Goaltending overturned
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:12 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Quincy doing it all
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:12 PM - LALakersFan4Life: lobs it to Casleton
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:14 PM - Juronimo: Quincy reminds me of the hedgehog a bit with his style of play
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:15 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Quincy causes a turnover
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:19 PM - LALakersFan4Life: 31-4 run by the Lakers
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:20 PM - Juronimo: That last 3 was a bad shot
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:22 PM - KareemtheGreat33: Victor y
Oct 10, 2024 at 7:23 PM - LALakersFan4Life: Traore wanted to get some points on that bad 3

 

Oct 15, 2024 7:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Let's Get Ready to Rumble
Oct 15, 2024 7:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Looks like sold out
Oct 15, 2024 7:26 PM - Weezy: Reaves is looking good, moving well
Oct 15, 2024 7:36 PM - KuzmoBall17: WOW.AD
Oct 15, 2024 7:38 PM - Weezy: Fun first quarter
Oct 15, 2024 7:48 PM - KuzmoBall17: 3 3 3 3 . Common it's preseason
Oct 15, 2024 7:49 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Hello how goes it.
Oct 15, 2024 7:49 PM - Khmrp: new coach same garbage defense
Oct 15, 2024 7:50 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I guess the coach can't make Lebron twenty years younger, but not everybody on the team is 40ish
Oct 15, 2024 7:50 PM - Weezy: It’s going about how I expect. We just don’t have a great roster, it’s imbalanced, mismatched pieces
Oct 15, 2024 7:51 PM - Weezy: And yeah, we don’t have defensive players. I would imagine this is the season post-Olympics LeBron starts to show signs of aging finally as well
Oct 15, 2024 7:53 PM - Weezy: I imagine knecht is going to get minutes just out of necessity, our shooting just isn’t good enough and he can shoot.
Oct 15, 2024 7:55 PM - Weezy: Now knecht can’t shoot either
Oct 15, 2024 7:56 PM - KuzmoBall17: Okay.Ime for Bronny show his magic
Oct 15, 2024 7:56 PM - KareemtheGreat33: Knot Knecht
Oct 15, 2024 7:59 PM - Khmrp: this the Antoni team, just outscore opponents who cares bout defense
Oct 15, 2024 8:03 PM - Weezy: We don’t have a lot of creators on this roster for that though. DLo doesn’t get to the rim enough, Max should not be play-making, Rui is very catch and shoot, Gabe isn’t much of a PG
Oct 15, 2024 8:04 PM - KuzmoBall17: LeBron
Oct 15, 2024 8:07 PM - KuzmoBall17: I hate hate hate GSW basketball
Oct 15, 2024 8:26 PM - Weezy: I’ll never understand how Draymond gets away with the stuff he does
Oct 15, 2024 8:27 PM - Weezy: Grabs AD’s arm on the putback dunk attempt, pulls him to the floor, no call
Oct 15, 2024 8:32 PM - Weezy: Max needs to start hitting wide open threes, he’s not asked to do much, but that he needs to do
Oct 15, 2024 8:33 PM - Weezy: AD has been great tonight
Oct 15, 2024 8:37 PM - The Showtime Mamba: AD has shown us a lot. I agree Weezy
Oct 15, 2024 8:44 PM - VladeD714: This team might be in the play-in
Oct 15, 2024 8:45 PM - Weezy: We’d be fortunate to make the play-in, would probably mean we had relatively good health
Oct 15, 2024 8:47 PM - VladeD714: Yep. I thought we'd finish 5th or 6th, but I'm going to be wrong
Oct 15, 2024 8:47 PM - Weezy: This roster just isn’t that good. Not only do we employ some borderline NBA players, but we’re currently RELYING on some
Oct 15, 2024 8:48 PM - VladeD714: It's alright. I'm told Rob is doing a good job
Oct 15, 2024 8:49 PM - Weezy: The only reason I’m not even more concerned is because you can tell they’re still learning the offense, so you have to think it’ll look smoother in time. But Max to me looks a little lost, not seeing a jump from him yet, DLo looks bored, and maybe it’s just me, but Gabe looks like he’d rather be anywhere else
Oct 15, 2024 8:49 PM - Weezy: For all the talk of good vibes in training camp, I’m not seeing a lot of fun in their play
Oct 15, 2024 8:49 PM - VladeD714: As you said, Max has to hit open shots. He's getting paid now.
Oct 15, 2024 8:50 PM - Cookie: Howdy.
Oct 15, 2024 8:50 PM - VladeD714: Rob better cobble something together.
Oct 15, 2024 8:50 PM - Weezy: I feel like some of these guys know they are on the permanent trade block and are playing like it

 

Oct 15, 2024 at 8:51 PM - VladeD714: Half of them suck
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:51 PM - VladeD714: lol
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:51 PM - Weezy: Fair lol
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:51 PM - Cookie: I don’t care if they’re on the trading block. If you get paid millions of dollars, you don’t get a participation trophy. You need to be a professional.
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:52 PM - VladeD714: I'm just not excited about this team at all
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:52 PM - Weezy: I mean I agree, but again, maybe I’m just seeing things, but a number of these players don’t look like they want to be here
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:53 PM - VladeD714: Yeah, it is preseason, and they're in Vegas. If they come out the gate struggling, there will be pitchforks.
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:53 PM - Weezy: They almost seem confused at their roles. Like what is JHS role next to DLo? What is Gabe’s next to DLo? Why play guards together that need the ball
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:53 PM - VladeD714: They need to offload some guards
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:54 PM - Cookie: Trouble is no one wants our junk
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:54 PM - Weezy: I like Haye’s energy, but man, borderline NBA Player
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:54 PM - Weezy: Just throw in the G-league guys again, at least they play hard
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:55 PM - Cookie: I can see we are hitting our usual sizzling 35% and 24% from 3
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:56 PM - VladeD714: Here's the thing, IMO: I hear people saying "it's the Lakers, the teams always ask for an arm and a leg..." and while that may be true, the league/business is still about relationships. Jerry and Mitch got sh** done being GM's
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:56 PM - Weezy: I’m not sure who on the roster is meant to make threes, we don’t have high volume shooters. I’ve been saying that a long time but no, changing coaches means we’re suddenly going to make them
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:56 PM - Cookie: Mitch also got Deng/Mozzed
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:57 PM - VladeD714: Oh, while it's a new salary cap "it's challenging..." while you new the new CBA was coming, starting learning the MF and be prepared
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:57 PM - VladeD714: Mitch won chips before that cookie
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:57 PM - Cookie: True but Rob has won a chip also
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:57 PM - Weezy: Teams probably do ask more from us, but you also have to be creative. The way Irwin, for one, tells it, Rob isn’t creative, he makes an offer and says take it or leave it
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:57 PM - VladeD714: He also traded for Gasol. Either way, the point is the GM's still got s*** done. I'm starting to think no one likes his a**
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:58 PM - Weezy: Then he calls back later and says how about now, and the team says still no
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:58 PM - Cookie: I’m not saying Rob is wonderful but I don’t think he’s as trashy as some think
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:58 PM - VladeD714: He isn't good at his job
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:59 PM - Weezy: I don’t think anyone does like Rob, he’s supposedly perceived as a bit of a used car salesman who can stretch the truth a bit
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:59 PM - VladeD714: I think he needs to be reporting to a President of Basketball ops instead of being one
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:59 PM - Weezy: Meanwhile you look at a team like GS who pivoted nicely from their losses this offseason
Oct 15, 2024 at 8:59 PM - Cookie: I think he has made mistakes. I also think the Buss family has caused some of those mistakes from being cheap, like Bald Eagle. I also think Bron has caused some of those mistakes like Russ. There’s plenty of blamed to go around and it’s not all on Rob in my opinion.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:00 PM - Weezy: Rob does report to someone, Kurt Rambis, that’s an even bigger issue

 

Oct 15, 2024 at 9:00 PM - Weezy: I agree with that cookie, but we aren’t fixing our mistakes just sticking it out with Rob, always insisting on being a mom and pop operation, never going outside the family
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:00 PM - VladeD714: It isn't the Buss family, IMO. It's Jeanie. She's the Governor and should take sole responsibility
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:01 PM - Weezy: The lakers should have the best front office money can buy
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:01 PM - Cookie: I just say the Buss family but the buck does stop with Jeanie
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:01 PM - VladeD714: She has the ability at the drop of a dime to follow the Dodgers blueprint
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:02 PM - Weezy: It is Jeanie, she’s trusting and loyal to a fault, to Rambis and to Rob, makes it super hard to fire people when they are essentially family
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:02 PM - Cookie: We definitely need to expand our front office staff. We are run like a 5 and dime
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:02 PM - VladeD714: While the Dodgers only won one WS, they are in contention every year and have the smartest minds in the FO
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:02 PM - Weezy: Exactly, that’s all I’m saying, get with the times, run this thing like a true pro org
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - Cookie: I just don’t see that happening unfortunately Weezy
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - Weezy: But it seems like all the people in power at the top of the Lakers like having that power and none want to give it up, so we’ll continue to operate this way
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - VladeD714: It won't
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - Cookie: And I don’t see the Buss family selling either
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - Weezy: And when LeBron is gone, hooo boy it’s going to get dicey
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - VladeD714: According to Irwin, we don't pay assistants very well
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:03 PM - VladeD714: LOL
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:04 PM - Cookie: Bron gives a lot but takes a lot also. But he’s a cash cow for them.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:04 PM - Weezy: Right, he says we pay at or below league average, not factoring in the cost of living in LA
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:05 PM - Weezy: Love him or hate him LeBron brings credibility to the org, before him we were a mess.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:05 PM - VladeD714: That's why I don't mind the whole Bronny thing
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:05 PM - Weezy: Kerr seriously called timeout up 18 lol
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:05 PM - Cookie: So what percentage of fault lies with who. Mine is 50% Buss, 25% Rob, 25% Bron
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:06 PM - VladeD714: I remember when LeBron signed. Without LeBron, there's no AD
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:06 PM - Cookie: Bron also set us back big time with Russ. Like I said he gives any takes.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:07 PM - Weezy: I put very little blame on LeBron, it’s the GM’s job to ignore players bad ideas. We literally didn’t defend Russ at the 3 point line in the bubble playoffs and then we trade for him
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:07 PM - VladeD714: So, while I understand the criticism, that's why I ignore the other sh**
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:07 PM - Cookie: I’ll be happy to get out from under his agents control
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:07 PM - VladeD714: Rob didn't have to make the trade for Russ
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:07 PM - Weezy: I’d be like sorry Bron, I know he’s your friend, but he doesn’t work here with you and AD
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:07 PM - VladeD714: He didn't hire Lue
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:08 PM - Weezy: Rob didn’t have a much better move lined up either, he was gonna trade Kuz for Hield
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:08 PM - Cookie: Yes he did. Bron controls a lot of s***, even long before he got to the Lakers. He always has
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:08 PM - VladeD714: Naw, not true, IMO. If that's the case, Lue & Kyrie would be here right now
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:08 PM - Weezy: Nah, I can’t put that on Lebron, Rob didn’t HAVE to do anything
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:09 PM - Cookie: I hated Hield trade but it would have been better than Russ

 

Oct 15, 2024 at 9:09 PM - VladeD714: And Caruso
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:09 PM - Weezy: What’s the worst that happens if Rob says no, he gets fired? Jeanie wouldn’t fire him for doing what was in the lakers best interest
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:09 PM - Cookie: I said earlier, Caruso was Jeanie fault. That was a money issue
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:10 PM - Weezy: Neither move were good, that’s what I’m saying, Rob isn’t very good if that’s the best he can come up with. And then we pursued washed up Klay this offseason as well
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:10 PM - Cookie: Bryan would’ve b****ed and yelled all freaking season if he didn’t get his way. His passive aggressive stuff in the locker room to the press and on the court would’ve been off the charts.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:10 PM - VladeD714: I'm saying if LBJ ran the organization Caruso would have been here irrespective of the salary cap implications
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:10 PM - Cookie: Jeanie has more power than both Rob and Bron.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:10 PM - VladeD714: He also wanted Derozan (LBJ) We didn't t do that too
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:11 PM - Cookie: Bron was never going give up the money required for that. That was all just lip service to make him look good in the press.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:11 PM - Cookie: Bron is all about PR
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:11 PM - Weezy: Sorry, I just don’t put much blame on the players. Kobe b***** and moaned all the time too, Buss ignored him and did what was best
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:11 PM - VladeD714: If we didn't do things that LBJ requested or wanted before, we didn't have to trade for WB
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:12 PM - Cookie: Kobe played at a time that players didn’t have the power they do now. They got their contract and played out the contract.. They didn’t get Max money and then want to be traded a year later.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:13 PM - Cookie: So no one answered my question on percentages.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:13 PM - Weezy: Knecht getting hot
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:13 PM - VladeD714: Jeanie gets 55, Rob 40, LBJ 5
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:13 PM - VladeD714: rofl
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:13 PM - Weezy: I’d probably put it at like 60% Jeanie, 35% Rob, 5% bron
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:14 PM - Cookie: Fair enough. No way I’m giving LeBron only 5% though in my opinion
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:14 PM - Weezy: Jeanie gets the most because she’s the one who hired Rob, she cannot hire someone who isn’t a former Laker or doesn’t have ties to the Lakers in some way
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:14 PM - VladeD714: You're anti-LBJ
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:14 PM - VladeD714: LOL
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:15 PM - Weezy: Rob gets a lot because I genuinely think he’s mediocre at best at his job
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:15 PM - Cookie: I am. I admit that. But I’m also able to look past that
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:15 PM - VladeD714: This team isn't that good
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:15 PM - Weezy: Lebron gets very little because that’s just what players do, they always ask for better teammates, for impossible trades, just do your job and ignore them, Rob’s job is secure as can be
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:16 PM - Cookie: How many GM are just ignoring superstar request?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:16 PM - Cookie: I would say, not many.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:16 PM - Weezy: A lot
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:16 PM - Weezy: IMO
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - VladeD714: Superstars don't go to GM's first of all
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - Cookie: Who? What teams.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - VladeD714: They go to owners
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - Weezy: The ones with superstars haha
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - Weezy: It’s why we don’t see crazy trades all the time

 

Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - Cookie: Same same. They still asked people and that’s the main point.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - VladeD714: When superstars want something done, they go to owners
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:17 PM - VladeD714: it isn't the same people
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM - VladeD714: are you kidding me?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM - Weezy: These guys are divas, you just have to ignore them, they’ll have a new request every week
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM - Cookie: I never said it was the same person, but it is the same request
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM - VladeD714: there's a hierarchy within the organization
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM - VladeD714: that's why when KD requested a trade, he went to the owner of brooklyn to get s*** done
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:18 PM - VladeD714: that's how it goes
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: and if the owners have balls they don't comply
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - Weezy: Anyway folks, it’s been a fun conversation, but I’m battling an upper respiratory infection, need to rest, have a good night
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - Cookie: I don’t care who they ask is what I’m trying to say. They still ask
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: ask what?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: for what?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: trades?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: more money?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - Cookie: Ask for s*** trades that hurt the organization
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: coaching changes?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:19 PM - VladeD714: lol
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:20 PM - Cookie: Night Weezy
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:20 PM - VladeD714: if the superstar is happy, they don't ask for s***
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:20 PM - VladeD714: if they want out, they'll ask an owner
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:20 PM - Cookie: Tell me how many team KD has been on lately
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:20 PM - Weezy:
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:21 PM - Cookie: How many teams Kyrie has been on lately.etc. Etc
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:21 PM - VladeD714: that's irrelevant how many teams KD has been on; the last trade he requested was granted by the owner
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:21 PM - VladeD714: and the dude who ultimately approved the trade was the new owner of Phoenix, Matt Ishiba
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:21 PM - VladeD714: Kyrie is a malcontent.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - Cookie: A lot of players are malcontent
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - VladeD714: but Mark decided to take on the malcontent
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - VladeD714: right?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - Cookie: The beard, we could go on and on
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - VladeD714: Same s***
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - VladeD714: the owner of Houston wanted him out, too
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:22 PM - VladeD714: same for Philly

 

Oct 15, 2024 at 9:23 PM - Cookie: So what are we arguing about?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:23 PM - VladeD714: Actually, Jeanie is 80 percent the problem
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:24 PM - VladeD714: There's a pecking order. GM's rarely matter when superstars want something done and go to the owners, IMO. Hell, why the heck would I communicate with Rob if I wanted something done on the team. I'd just ask Jeanie
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:25 PM - VladeD714: If I was LBJ, and I wanted to go to GS and play with Curry, I would contract Jeanie, and she would make it happen
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:25 PM - Cookie: I think you got hung up on owner vs GM. I agree that they go to the owners but I lump the owner/front office together
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:26 PM - VladeD714: I don't
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:26 PM - VladeD714: Owners write the checks
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:26 PM - Cookie: Ok.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:26 PM - VladeD714: you want lonnie walker back?
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:27 PM - Cookie: Im out, night. What, what’s Walker got to do with this
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:27 PM - VladeD714: C Bags might be releasing him
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:27 PM - Cookie: Oh, no then.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:28 PM - Cookie: I’m want someone over 5 11 that’s not a toothpick
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:28 PM - VladeD714: I'd take him over Reddish
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:29 PM - VladeD714: that's not really a high bar
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:29 PM - Cookie: And we can trade whatever guard we have to get that
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:29 PM - Cookie: Not Dlo though.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:29 PM - VladeD714: we really can't trade dlo with this roster
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:29 PM - VladeD714: he's probably our best shooter, lol
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:30 PM - Cookie: We need a PG. so we can trade him if we get a real PG back.
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:30 PM - VladeD714: it's going to be a long season
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:31 PM - Cookie: Dlo is too afraid of the bright lights of the playoffs. We can’t have chokers
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:31 PM - Cookie: I’ve never been less interested at the beginning of any Lakers season that I can remember
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:32 PM - Cookie: Night
Oct 15, 2024 at 9:33 PM - VladeD714: Night

 

Oct 17, 2024 7:12 PM - Weezy: Man, if AD’s 2020 midrange shot is back..
Oct 17, 2024 7:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Tonight is WCF preview
Oct 17, 2024 7:13 PM - KuzmoBall17: Davis already made 2 3's
Oct 17, 2024 7:14 PM - KuzmoBall17: Booker hit a microphone
Oct 17, 2024 7:14 PM - Weezy: Wow Nurk has been awful so far
Oct 17, 2024 7:15 PM - Weezy: And then he buries a 3
Oct 17, 2024 7:15 PM - Juronimo: Is bubble Ludabrow back? I hope so
Oct 17, 2024 7:16 PM - Weezy: It’s early, but yeah his shot has looked much closer to how it did back then
Oct 17, 2024 7:16 PM - KuzmoBall17: No.He will be better than bubble and today
Oct 17, 2024 7:17 PM - KuzmoBall17: Today some talking heads like Arenas pissed him off
Oct 17, 2024 7:24 PM - KuzmoBall17: AD hits another 3
Oct 17, 2024 7:24 PM - KuzmoBall17: And another
Oct 17, 2024 7:25 PM - KuzmoBall17: 4 out of 5 three points
Oct 17, 2024 7:27 PM - KuzmoBall17: David missed a FT
Oct 17, 2024 7:27 PM - Weezy: That was a nice 3 by Max, Dlo style fix never brought the ball below his chest
Oct 17, 2024 7:27 PM - Weezy: Gabe with a 3
Oct 17, 2024 7:31 PM - KuzmoBall17: Why they play back to back in preseason lol
Oct 17, 2024 7:31 PM - KuzmoBall17: Or San Francisco looking forward to seeing Bronny
Oct 17, 2024 7:32 PM - KuzmoBall17:
Oct 17, 2024 7:32 PM - Weezy: Preseason should never have back to backs, should be illegal
Oct 17, 2024 7:33 PM - KuzmoBall17: And Austin with 3
Oct 17, 2024 7:34 PM - Weezy: We made EIGHT threes in the first Q. Enjoy that folks, as a Laker fan you may never see that again
Oct 17, 2024 7:40 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Hayes has regressed
Oct 17, 2024 7:41 PM - Juronimo: Lol AR got away with a travel
Oct 17, 2024 7:41 PM - ZenMaster: and we are behind. lol
Oct 17, 2024 7:42 PM - Juronimo: We're up by 7
Oct 17, 2024 7:42 PM - Weezy: I don’t know man, I just think Hayes never gressed in the first place
Oct 17, 2024 7:43 PM - ZenMaster: I am watching it delayed. end of first
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - Weezy: Reddish is playing well
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - ZenMaster: JHS is useless lol
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - ZenMaster: i didn't miss HIM
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - Juronimo: Phoenix has 2 beefy bigs. We don't have any
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - KuzmoBall17: Like his number
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - Weezy: Man I didn’t even notice he was in the game ..
Oct 17, 2024 7:44 PM - ZenMaster: They do. And they still don't have any interior defense to speak of
