Cavs fans are officially banned from making jokes about how the city of Boston is mad racist (it is though) for 1.5 weeks!!!

It was easy not having beef with lebron when the Spurs have the advantage in finals matchups, easier to go with a patronizing respect to someone god like but fallible. He was defeatable.
Whereas I can't imagine how I'd feel towards lebron as like, a Celtics or Bulls or Raptors fan

Celtics fans only remember making him quit the Cavs so it's not so bad :)

Oh yeahhhh. Boston made him move from Cleveland to Miami. San Antonio made him move from Miami to Cleveland. Boston makes him move from Cleveland to San Antonio.
Seems fair.

Was just going to post about this. Hopefully the raps get the win tonight by 15 (or maybe 14?) and get the new record for best Feb ever by + - .

All thanks for the most balanced, hardest working 2nd unit in the league. My man FVV is killing it.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

The problem with finding literally every Laker-centric thing too despicable to follow means that I miss out important stuff like the news that Corey Brewer was bought out. Bad GMs not drafting well and Corey Brewer wanting to play for a playoff team saves Earvin from the harsh reality of being Moreyed his first hour on the job.

Of course Josh Hart is gone for the season so I'm not exactly sure who's going to back up KCP now but whatever.

Lonzo and IT are probably gonna absorb a lot of those minutes, and I'd imagine Caruso and Ennis (:sigh) will fill in the rest


I think Josh Hart is a very underrated part of this team's recent success, he has been a great 3&D guy, he is shooting 40% from deep this year

Lonzo as a wing is not the end of the world, but I think he's on a back to back restriction for the rest of the season.

Bleh, I guess you're right, on non-Lonzo nights the Lakers are going to have to start Ennis and IT in the back court. Boy that sounds defensively terrible.
