To be fair, the Lakers have lost in the Finals more times than any other franchise.

In my defense I was only promoting the forum because Lakers fans come in masses, unlike Blozers and Pistons fans. Vast # of Lakers thread pages >>> Blozers + Pistons posts is my proof, sirs.

So you are just bending over to appease someone just because they are more popular? I can totally see the same mentality playing a part in other areas of your life. Unless you werent serious about that lame "burn".

It has little to do with loyalty and personality, a lot less than circumstances offered to the player. Players like Nash I think can be extremely loyal but they weren't really offered same level of chances as Wade or Kobe. And most players aren't franchise player which makes extremely difficult for them to remain on a single team for entire career.

No you are an ass kisser. Everybody has certain patterns of thinking which they apply to several identical situations in life. And stop trying to look all cool and relaxed by point out that I am "mad". I was just disgusted at your ass kissing so just wanted to point it out.

I'm sorry, but I don't see why you'd need to promote the forum to someone that has been here for almost 2 years, has made 1197 posts and has earned Contributor status. Unless you mean that by patting Nash_Bryant in the back you're trying to show others that we're Lakers-friendly. Which seems kind of pointless, again. Should I not be bashing the Lakers in the podcast in order not to deter other Lakers fans from visiting us, too? You're supporting a team, you have to know how to accept criticism, and even bashing.

As for the Lakers...

Yeah, a draft pick that ended up being a bust is the same thing as having Nash, Bryant and Howard and being called the Lakers and sucking so much. Hey, the Pistons suck, but nobody can take away the schadenfreude that fills me up from seeing the Lakers fail.

Lol. What a mess. Simple chat with a Lakers fan followed by a joke(intended to annoy some bitch) gone wrong.

I didn't say it was the same? It was Darko giving you the thumbs up to your laughing.

I am one of the least bothered person about "haters". Everyone has their opinion and it's sort of a compliment to the organization that they are that disliked. Carry on...(Y)

If a joke goes wrong it simply means the joke is bad and you should feel bad.

Thabo probably used up Bestbrook's special water in the locker room.

Right there in the article:

With just under nine minutes left in the third quarter and the Thunder up 65-40, Westbrook was whistled for a five-second backdown violation (aka the Mark Jackson rule). Immediately after the call, he began to yell at teammate Thabo Sefolosha, who cut through the lane during Westbrook's post-up and brought a second defender into the area. Westbrook couldn't move into the lane as he wanted, and he blamed Sefolosha for it.


He was frustrated with the miscommunication that lead to the turnover and lost his temper. That's about it.

Duncan with a knee injury and MKG with the head injury and was unconscious for more than 5 minutes I think. Not a good day for the NBA.

phpBB [video]

He needs to cool it a bit. They were up 25 points at that moment too. That affects a team morale. You can't go ape shit just because you think your team made a mistake. I'd get pretty pissed off no matter if you're Kobe or not if some shitface loses his cool and goes ape shit over something that's so little like your penis.
