    The Cap quotes were pretty fair. They just didnt need to be said publicly. He has enough access to go and talk to LBJ if he felt it was that much of an issue. I know a lot of people dislike him for various reasons but for all the good he has done many of the things pointed out by Cap seem nit-picky.

    There's also this: https://lakersdaily.com/report-demar-derozan-felt-like-lakers-were-in-disarray-and-didnt-know-what-they-were-doing/ “I talked to someone from DeRozan’s camp,” Ohm Youngmisuk said. “When DeRozan was in town in L.A., and he basically stuck it to the Lakers. The impression that I got from his camp was that DeRozan felt that the Lakers were in sort of disarray. They didn’t really have a vision. They didn’t know what they were doing.”

    Yeah I know Demar was reportedly open about going to LA. That wasnt the part I was disputing. Magic said they could have signed Demar (they couldn't, they were over the cap) and kept their depth, while also trading for Heild. The money just doesnt work. Additionally, the Lakers were balking at giving Demar a 3rd yr which he ultimately got from CHI. So yeah he was willing to take an an annual discount he wanted to make sure he got that 3rd yr and that is what broke down the deal as much as LBJ/AD going to talk to Russ from the reports I've seen. Not even saying that LBJ isnt at least at partial fault. Just that this is Magic and while he may want the Lakers to win I am sure he isnt going to hesitate to give hindsight and make it seem like he could have done it better than Pelinka

    I assumed he was talking about the latter. No way he makes it through half a season.

    Well, I'm not sure if Derozen wanted to come there but Magic's scenario is not realistic. They would not have been able to sign Demar, keep their depth and trade for Buddy.

    This is commonly referred to as bitchassness.

    Absolutely love the guy. He lives like he LOVES life and then goes on the court and fucking destroys! Clearly works extremely hard on his game too.

    Yeah there was a catering angle involved as well. Still nothing to get that worked up about.

    Yeah, his comments were stupid as hell given the context of their season but what was he supposed to say about his player?

    Up to 60. Still 8 mins left but they are up 30+. Not sure if he will try to top KAT

    Almost all those instances were in the 50s/60s. They played at a ridiculous pace back then and generally shot horrible percentages.

    I swear he said it in French too. "trop petit"

    I meant many solely attribute their success to Steph. They aren't the machine they've been over the yrs without Dray along with Steph.

    How is this different than what I said? I never said Steph sucks nor am I saying they would be good with Dray and no Steph. Dray is what holds them together though. 14-12 with Steph and no Dray is struggling when they had they best record in the league for a while with Dray.

    Klay clearly isnt ready to really contribute. Honestly he's probably too proud for it but he needs to go to the G league for about 10 gms to get his confidence/rhythm back before the playoffs. Also as much as people try to attribute their success to Steph, Dray is the straw that stirs the drink for them. He's out and they struggle.

    CP3 never developed his game????

    Completely absurd. Look at where he is taking off from. With a 7' guy in between him and the rim. Not even sure how you think "fuck it, I'm dunking this." that far away

    Nothing eats at Zion. He does the eating.

    He's played basically one season. 85 gms and will have 30 teams lined up to give him 200M+. That's one helluva lick
  20. Lets get it established a) he's lying for effect and b) Lavine is a fucking freak of nature.
