I think he likes playing on middling teams. I do not understand it. For real, he done wasted a few years being on sorry to middling teams, and never seeming to want out or go to a winning situation . I think he cool with hooping and getting a check without all the spotlight etc. he could’ve helped a couple of really good teams over the last couple of years.

In the predicament of still being just good enough to warrant being paid by bad to decent teams. He's still only 32!

I don't understand why people get so offended by the heat culture thing . It's just a stupid marketing gimmick like 'LA our way'

you say this like LA our way didn’t get an entire group of fans butthurt had dudes living thousands of miles away from LA who would never see the billboards in their life fuming at their computer screens

Right? His name seems to always come up at mid-season as a guy who could help a contender, but it never happens.

And still talking about it more than a year later

Now show the stats when Simmons was on him lol

That 2015 Grizzlies roster was probably the best of the Grit N Grind Era. Just unfortunate injuries derailed them in the playoffs.

It was just a local ad campaign. Don't think anyone outside of LA was aware of it

THEY are really trying to force this Dame v. Steph thing again....

I know. Dame been better this season. The Wardell stans in the media need to stand back and stand by.

 

[akajae]

Haven’t been around staples center in a minute. those billboards still up?

 

[wavycrocket]

Add in the injuries for context and I’ll go dame > curry so far this season

Dame been ballin outta control lately. *****s cannot guard him. Although, CJ (what’s the word y’all love to use these days.?) “carried” him in a lot of those early season wins. But that’s what teammates are for.

Dubs got a 4 game East Coast trip coming up. So a good chance to pad them wins for them. Prolly be a top 5 seed by the end of the month.

What is LA Our Way

 

[HOU$TON]

Pat Bev and them wasn’t stopping nothing in 2015 . Classic for sure. Hell of a playoff run

Game 1 was loss by 4 and game 2 loss by 1. Maybe having Pat Bev take minutes from Jason terry or Pablo prigioni could've swung the series. Who knows

When his contract is up...watch him sign with Orlando for a 3yr/40 mil deal.

Can't wait to watch Lamelo work Steph. Top10 PG. BBB.

and he almost lost to a team LeBron James and some janitors in the Finals... interesting. Where is his Finals MVP? #notmygoat

The Dame vs W. Steph conversation needs to stop. Dame in no world is better or has a bigger impact.

After next season. I had no idea he was getting paid $13.5M this season and $14M next season.

The warriors almost lost in 2015?

Must be two 2015s

There’s still a few around the LA area. Not near Staples, but off various freeways in a couple of spots. The majority are gone though.

And for the record, even most Clippers fans thought that advertising campaign, including all the “Street lights over spot lights”, etc. slogans, was lame. It’s pretty indisputable it was.

I don’t blame the team for making an effort to create more of an identity for itself, but it was not well executed.

 

[friscostylez]

Thoughts on the majority of warriors opponents having significant injuries during their playoff runs?

Maybe Fools Gold should get credit for being able to stay healthy...they are called Warriors for a reason b

He's been better and more impactful THIS season.

 

[storm2006]

He's been better and more impactful THIS season.

So we’re going to ignore he played a 27/4/5 guy for half the season?
