Hopefully all this Laker talk will quite down once they don't make the playoffs. It's really the only topic of basketball they talk about on ESPN. It's gotten really annoying, regardless of who to blame. The whole team is at fault for them not performing. The Clippers were on a what, 15 game win streak and they were spoken about for maybe 3 minutes.
I've said it before, and this shows that it is very true: ESPN has favorite teams.
Clippers vs. knicks! Where you at Docker
Actually, I couldn't care less about your or anyone else's opinion of the Heat Index. Nice attempt at deflection though.Gawd forbid that someone says something about the Lakers AKA Kobe's team when they are on ESPN every day, all day. And the real reason for your wrath was me mentioning that Heat index on ESPN's home page. But whatever, we are all entitled to our own opinion. Probably why this thread has barely had a pulse the past 3 weeks.
Shumpert/Dudley is a non-starter. Won't happen. Maybe if D'Antoni was still in New York.On a side note, the Knicks are talking about trading Shump for Dudley?! When did Dudley become a good commodity to have? If they were willing to give up Dragic, I'd say do it in a heartbeat but Dudley? I'm sorry but that is a horrible trade.
Ben Gordon for Humphrey? That is a MJ move. I honestly think Humphrey is not playing because of the Kanye/Kim thing. Dude was producing this year then all of a sudden he got benched for no reason whatsoever. And at the time, these guys were like 11-4. Then AJ just sat him down because he "needed something different" and then these guys just started to lose. It baffles the mind.
Well said. My first reaction was that this was something FDR said at some point, but it doesn't seem so. Then, I thought that you could be FDR... with less polio and more flair, but you don't strike me as 121 years old. Now, I'm on the theory that there might be some sort of cloning operation involved. Maybe a transferred consciousness into a new body like Lex Luthor.To sum that entire post up into a sentence; infamy is just as powerful as fame.
Yes he does have some say, but wouldn't someone with a larger say chime in with "Hey, what the hell is going on with the starting lineup? Sit your camel-looking ass down, Mr. Carter." Again, they won 10 out of 11 in January with Humphries doing the basketball equivalent of holding a clipboard. Brooklyn's struggles are because Williams and Johnson aren't playing up to max contracts.Well Jay does have SOME say, though a small one. When Humphries started, he produced and these guys were winning, even a contender in the east. Since the demotion, they have fallen to the middle of the pack. And don't tell me you'd pick Evans over Humphries. The contract, I understand but they just signed the guy so they can only blame themselves. And why would they bench a guy when they are winning? They didn't need a line up change at that time but ever since then, the team has been streaky at best. They almost had a team with players all playing classic positions who can all score but now that is gone. I actually think this move won't help either team as much as people think.
Riiiight... Fictional.Well said. My first reaction was that this was something FDR said at some point, but it doesn't seem so.

I suppose you could be Lex Luthor, but he's fictional... right?
