ham low key look like a young doc rivers with a bald head in that pic. thats why jeanie approved the signing.

 

[tay1]

I wonder if we keep Stanley Johnson.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

We all finna go ham when this former Texas Tech high flying forward leads the team to a chip before Bron retires

Lakers got the right man for the job.

 

[DLF]

I wonder if we keep Stanley Johnson.

Yes

 

[pmatic]

I wonder if we keep Stanley Johnson.

More than likely. Paying him $2.3M is fine as a 11th or 12th guy on the roster.

But if he's playing 15 MPG next season, I don't think that's a good sign for the team.

[DLF]

Y’all do realize that Russ opting out and or being stretched and waived is the worse possible outcome for us.

Opting in allows us to trade him and get players back

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

We trading Russ to Charlotte for Michael Jordan

 

[tay1]

More good news. Hopefully this remains true.

 

[DLF]

Go celtics

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

 

[pmatic]

Go Warriors.

 

[DLF]

Eh. Who cares

These guys are all martyrs anyways. Lebron gives two ****s about the rivalry. Make good moves and you win. Can’t manage like Michael Scott then get sad when the “rivals” outsmart you.

[DLF]

Said this many times all year

Celtics winning is destiny. Lakers have done terrible basketball things the past 10 years. The universe always corrects itself. I’m here for it.

 

[therealest1]

I'm going to have to go with the lesser of two evils in this NBA Finals and cheer for the Warriors because I don't want the Celtics to win an 18th title as a Lakers fan.

 

[Lizakers]

It’s all good. It’s more painful to make it all the way to the finals and lose. Let them and their fans feel that pain!

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Warriors should handle Boston in 6

 

[grittyman]

Not rooting for either team to win, the hell with both of em.

Probably won’t even watch most of the finals, barely watched any of these playoffs

 

[DLF]

Talk **** about Kurt and Rob all you want but they know more than most of you jackasses. Look at this stat:



Defense doesn’t win ****. It’s all about being small and agile and being a good 3 point shooting team. Preferably older and experienced.

 

[tay1]

Internet went in on James Worthy for hours comments

 

[Lizakers]

We drafted Lonzo lol
