    Drew might be ready to rethink his situation.

    The first ten minutes of last night's game was embarrassing. Just another straw.

    Hard to see the freshmen taking snaps from Burke and Vasek. Does this mean Vasek's injury is likely to keep him out?

    Fat boy Luka ain't Bird.

    We all need to pray for Johntay. I hope gets right and makes the NFL.

    Well said. This reminds me of the Sixers with Iverson, who at least won an illegitimate MVP. Got lucky and made a Finals run. The fanbase loved Iverson because of the highlight crossover and tremendous athleticism. Problem was, he was a terrible leader because he didn't like to "practice" and was therefore inconsistent most of the time in clutch situations. Meanwhile, Kobe (who was drafted the same year 1996) loved to "practice" and won three straight titles while Iverson couldn't decide to work hard enough. Kobe had Shaq. True, but he worked; and he worked his way to titles without Shaq. History proves you better drop the putzes who don't want to work. The Lakers are the idiots here.

    The virtue signaling among Mavs fans on this deal is amusing. The guy is twenty-five years old and you haven't been able to convince him to straighten up. At what point do you think he is likely to adopt the proper mentality of a professional athlete? The obvious answer is probably never. There might be a one in five chance that he works it out. Those aren't good odds.

    The Beard domestic drama is the killer. Beard quickly turned things around and had the program headed toward a consistent sweet 16 level. When it went down, I didn't think the administration made the right decision in firing Beard. Can't undo it. It's obvious they're treading water until they get tired and sink with Terry.

    I'd bet Ewers will be a better pro than McCoy or VY.

    Make that three MVPs. Plus the Bucks made another Finals appearance. Kareem was already widely regarded as one the three greatest players to ever play at that time (along with Wilt and Russell). Was Kareem a fatty?

    Kareem had won two MVPs and a title by 1975. Do you guys know basketball history?

    You are saying the 2024 Celtics are one of the greatest teams of all time? That's more than a little bit of a stretch. I can't remember an all time great player that couldn't be counted on to stay in shape by the time he was 25. Shaq had problems in his early 30s, but not when he was 25.

    Listening to Luka fans is like listening to Aggies. Never really won anything, but they think they're great because of hype, potential and money.

    The reference fantasy ball is appropriate here.

    What can you expect to get for a one way player that also happens to be a culture cancer because everyone on the team works harder but he's the centerpiece?

    Who is Nico? Watch the film of Luka on both ends of the floor for a few full games, not just the three pointers he hits when he gets hot, take out the emotional elements, and there is not a great disparity. The truth is that if you can get offense from other positions, you're better off without Luka. As a Lakers guy, I'm not counting on any titles with Luka as the "face of the franchise." There's going to have to be other guys that do the real work to cover for Chunky's glaring deficiencies.

    I used to go to Mavs games up through the early Cuban era. After Cuban became a big mouth idiot, couldn't stand Mavs. That to say I have some distance. Mavs fans who think Luka is some kind of all time great are way out there. He can't play defense. He can't get in good shape. One hot playoff run does not an all time great player make. Davis is a better all around player. Davis is seven years older. Thus the trade is not nearly as lopsided as click bate artists or Mavs fans think. If Luka finally decides to stop eating and drinking like a frat boy (and that's a big "if"), then maybe it's a good long term deal for the Lakers. That takes us back to the defensive problems Luka has. That's the insurmountable fact which makes the deal much murkier than highlight fans think.

    Luka is equivalent to a dozen hamburgers and a two for one taco special.

    As a former Lakers fan, I don't like trading for chubby boy. Since the NBA has been a joke for about fifteen years, it doesn't really matter.

    What are you doing?
  21. harveycmd
    Coz, you've misunderstood what's going on with hobbies and complaints.
  22. harveycmd
    Those that pay the $37 million might remember.

    I don't care if Turntine goes to Oregon, A&M or Georgia. I just want real reports rather than "family" excuses.
  24. harveycmd
    So what you're saying is we don't get real reports from OTF?
  25. harveycmd
    Why not just come and tell everyone he's going to Tennessee? It's coming anyway. Either Gerry played us or Turntine played us.
