2021 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: Media Day...SHENANIGANS

[Vincent Van Goat]

Why do I feel like this happened before with Schroeder, around his OKC days or something.

Can't believe Philly took Mini Van away from the Jazz first Seth now Georges. Damb

Lakers definitely have the pieces to make it work now. They got experience and youth, depth in case someone goes down, Reg season Bron really just needs to set the cruise control, distribute and establish defined roles for dudes like Monk and wife beating Nunn.

 

[HIM]

Just catching up here... So it appears the consensus in here is the Lakers are team of washed individuals?

Just in case the super team talk begins

I think it’s the opposite. Rob won the offseason, the Lakers should be planning their parade on fig now because #18 is a forgone conclusion. Only thing is nobody will bet me DCAllAfrican

Youth?

 

[drewsone]

when lebron has extra energy on defense cuz all the new offense and becomes the final evolution form Draymond and wings DPOY>>>

 

[q-ball2220]

Youth?

Ain’t exactly got youth, but I think everyone is in good enough shape to possibly get a ring.

 

[af1 1982]

Lebron is a thot bro

 

[Nipsey3000]

This is the real question...
Utah?
Denver w/o Murray?
Clips w/o Kawhi?
Luka?
Phoenix who everybody knows had a fluke run?
Wardell/ Klay coming off of 2 major leg injuries?

Like c'mon.

Phx run was a fluke?

 

[tay1]

Phx run was a fluke?

Definitely

 

[shuges]

if you’re the wiz owner, you’ve gotta be extremely relieved you were able to trade away russ’ contract. people were constantly saying he was unmovable because of it

Low key, if I were Balmer I would privately wish Kawhi wanted out. That's 200+ milly for the next 5 years for an "old" 30, often injured, high demand superstar. Yes, I understand that he "has" to keep him. But nah man, as a team owner, Kawhi would make me super nervous.

 

[Nipsey3000]

Definitely

Do I believe phx, atl and mil are as good as they think they are going into next season? No.

But phx beat who was in front of them in the west. Not their fault folks weren't healthy.

 

[pmatic]

Phx run was a fluke?

With all due disrespect, yes.

 

[dacomeup]

GSW futures got great value rn

Do they?

 

[lawdog1]

PHX getting everyone important back. JaVale was a decent pick up. I got them Top 4 in the West again.

 

[freeze]

My boy hairline is COOKED

its da angle

 

[aepps20]

Lebron is a thot bro

He's a lib as well

 

[Nipsey3000]

With all due disrespect, yes.

Ain't no fluke runs. Ain't no asterisk champs either. The Lakers earned their title last year, the raptors did the same the year before. the suns beat who was in front of them.

Some Lakers fans been calling the Lakers defacto western conference champs since they lost to phx in the first round. Season is over, LIG.

Respectfully

Imo

 

[shuges]

Excellent how? cause of their two top guys sure. But id take every role player on this years bucks team over anybody on this lakers squad.

Bro,

YA BUGGIN'.

PJ, Brook, Bobby, Bryn, Pat C, Thanasis... THANASIS, Teague, and whoever else I'm forgetting over this Lakers bench?

Man, y'all wildin'.

And that's not even to **** on the Bucks who I thought had a very good roster top to bottom. But that's just how much better LAL's bench is.

Damn, I thought 2021 was the year HIGH VALUE black men support one another? But I guess I was wrong if y'all dudes gonna do me like this

I ain't playing, when KHUFU gets out of the Lazarus Pit, I'm telling on all of y'all

 

[ahat]

Do they?

Yes

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

Nipsey3000 no respect to PHX.

100% a fluke, we had Kyle Kuzma.

They get credit for beating who was in front of them. But I just think it was fluke-y given every team they played in the West had major injuries. They run through the gauntlet again next season, I'll change my mind.
