Yea I know I'm just saying, "laughing at the old guy who has spare time to burn because he burns it on NT" just seems kind of backwards.

Just trying to give shotsrangout some perspective.

I know this, my folks are 60 and they never got to a place in life where they could "chill" and kick back, they are only now reaching that point. I look at my situation several time daily with thanks because, I know how hard life can be and not everybody is "blessed" the same way, and I give thanks for what I have.

I only wish my folks had the time and life I do, when they were my age nah mean.

It's not a bragging expedition it's just, maybe dude is looking at things kind of backwards.

You and I are cool, just from knowing you in here I can tell you're a dude of principle and even your post I'm quoting holds a lot of weight, but just saying don't twist it like it's some contest, I'm just spitting a little help to the dude, or trying. Anyway, it's all good. **** life is good, nothing else matters but that, for real.

I know this doesn't concern me but since I will be 40 soon, I feel the disrespect and jealousy coming from your keyboard, seething hot over there so.....Let me just learn you young buck...

We old enough to have lived, loved, been successful, own **** and are now on the downside of life, retirement ****.

I can set at the Public Pool ALL DAY EVERY DAY, mackin Bees if I wanted.

I can go to the CLubs you love, EVERY Thurs Fri and Sat, and pick up the tabs of a 1oo ladies if I wanted, and then pay for their dudes drinks, too.  

I think the proper question would be, WHY ARE YOU WASTING YOUR PRIME YEARS ON NT, go get a career son, then come talk some **** to grown Folks nah mean.

Get your *** to work and you won't have to worry about  what another 40 year old or 20year old does with his time, you'd have enough piece of mind to enjoy your own life and let whoever cook.

That would be so GOAT 
 
With the amount of times they showing PG13's Gatorade spot during these playoffs and the promotion Nike be doin with his first signature shoe, you'd think he's on his way to becoming a Laker real soon and upping the ante on his endorsement value.
 
I hope when CP finally retires, he goes off on David Stern for changing his career trajectory which led to him never winning a ring.

NBA landscape would look so much different. SMH

Had CP3 been a Laker, Kobe would still be playing, Kobe would've probably never hurt his achilles and extended his career, Dwight would've had two-three solid years with LAL instead, Nash would've never been signed, Kevin Durant and/or Aldridge would've probably come to Los Angeles as a free agent, and the Warriors would be without a title. It would've been LAL vs CLE in the Finals three straight years instead.

Imagine what could've been for the Lakers the last couple of years:

CP3

Kobe

Durant 

Aldridge

Stern knew what he was doing.

this is very possible and realistic given out trajectory around that time period. We were flourishing. B2B chips. Then get swept in 2nd round of 11. 12 they immediately look to retool and actually create a domino that would ultimately keep us in contention for who knows how long? Another decade at least with the constant movement and retooling and upgrading when needed. Guarantee kobe would still be playing. just like vince. and the Lakers would be a heavy hitter. Not the laughing stock that we are currently. Memba when we didnt give a damn about draft picks. They were just tools of trade :smokin
 
One of the biggest mistakes the NBA made over the last 10+ years was failing to ensure a Kobe vs. Lebron meeting in the Finals.

In '69, we had Wilt vs Russell

In the 80s we had Magic vs Bird and Magic vs Isiah

In the 90s we had Jordan vs Magic and Jordan vs Mailman

Since 2000, the only thing remotely close to a Finals rivalry that we've seen has been Lebron vs Duncan and Lebron vs. Curry, but neither of these are on the epic scale that a Lebron vs Kobe matchup brings to the table.

Add Dwight at the 5,Sheesh :wow: I don't think Durant would've been in the mix though,for financial reasons .
