@voodoo Luka really needs to cool it on the whinging. There’s been a lot of talk about it in the second half of the season and yet it’s still going.
It’s almost as if he needs to get ejected in a big game to make the young fella learn a hard lesson.
Just watched that Suns v Warriors game and whether it was coasting or not, but the Warriors came back from 16 down to get a good win that puts them in the double chance play-in spot.
Opposition players will needle him in the hope that he gets himself tossed out more and more if he can't control his emotions

Fuck that, fuck the Lakers. Really.
Become a Mavs supporter! You’re used to supporting shit teams, you’ll fit right in.
I’m really looking forward to the play-in, and although I would also say ‘fuck the Warriors’, I’m looking forward to seeing whether Stephen can single-handedly fuck up another teams season.
Same for the Wizards if they can sneak in.
I love Dallas, I'm a big fan of Luka though I wish he'd stop the fucking whinging
Why so much hate for the Lakers?
Just like Crusaders hate.... Just watched the Lakers escape NYK with a win in OT. That had playoff intensity, the Knicks couldn't get good shots late, but they showed they will be dangerous in the playoffs
I watched the 4th. What a debacle of a finish. ThT making terrible decisions, AD not demanding the ball at the end, and an awful final possession for the Knicks

I’ve never been a Lakers fan either even though I like Byron Scott as a player, loved watching Kobe, and don’t mind the Lakers version of LBJ.
A 7/8 play-in match up between the Lakers and GSW will be fun to watch.
Lakers I've loved:
- James Worthy
- Magic
- Kurt Rambis
- Shaq
- Caruso
Lakers I've liked:
- LeBron
- Byron Scott
- AC Green
- Lamar Odom
Lakers I hated:
- Kobe
- Derrick Fisher
- Kareem

@voodoo was the hate list due to off the court issues?
I was never a Kobe fan. Great work ethic I know, but such a chucker. Just not my guy.
Not sure D Fish has a life off the court, it just seemed like he was the luckiest player in the world. And that fucking rainbow shot that almost scraped the ceiling.
Kareem I totally respect as a player, but he threw a lot of cheapshots and if you interrogate his resume, didn't take his teams that deep without help from O or Magic

@voodoo where does Nick van Exel fit in there?
Loved Van Exel. All the confidence in the world 😎

That was pretty cool I'll admit.
Making those 2 FT's on a busted achilles was also pretty wild

@bovidae said in NBA Season 20/21:
I'd take Kobe over Shaq.
@voodoo Good to see some love for AC Green. Michael Cooper was also the man in that team as their best defender. And I was a Sam Perkins fan.
Fluffing Caruso again.
Did you know AC Green remained a virgin for his entire NBA career??? 😨
-
-
@bovidae apparently his teammates used to send girls to his room all the time. That's some serious devotion! Guess Magic happily took AC's share
I'm Shaq over Kobe all day. Absolutely monster. Would have been even more dominant if they had changed the hack-a-shaq rules earlier.
-
Play-in is going to be lit - Lakers/Warriors and Celtics/Wizards. Neat.
I hope that my Mavs stuff the Clips; any team that tanks two games to get the match up they want deserves to lose. Fucking pussies trying to avoid the lakers who they would have avoided anyway.
I doubt we'll get there, but KP is back and we might just could. Come on Luka, bring us home.
-
@gt12 some play-ins will be good. The Lakers are going to smoke the Warriors unless Curry can somehow get 60 despite being guarded by 4 Lakers players.
Actually, looking at the rest, it's a bunch of games for teams going out in the first round
I have now stuck my money where my mouth is and have a bet on the Lakers to win the Championship.
Denver v Portland looks like the pick of the first round.

Most likely, but I still hope he scores 60, because fuck the Lakers.
The Celtics Wizards game could be fun.

It could be the Steph show and close game or a Lakers win by 20+
I like that LaMelo is still in the mix. The Hornets are fun to watch. The Pacers play an old school style and Sabonis is the focal point of their offence.
Westbrook is on a tear and I wouldn’t mind the Wizards upsetting the Celts. I like Daniel Gafford and Hachimura, they’re dunking machines!
Spurs and Grizzlies - too hard to pick. Both teams are very capable of playing some pretty abysmal ball....
