yep, seems about right.

Childish indeed.

For the record, my fav rassler is from the 70s/80s.

The rassler as my avatar is what the ladies refer to me as. Sorry your ass is chapped over it. I guess that seems about right for you.

Who's calling you this matters though. If it's the elderly ladies at the water exercise for seniors class, it doesn't carry quite the same cachet. :D

I've always wondered how Kobe stans rationalize his career mediocre .447 FG% and abysmal .329 3P% :crazy:

LeChoke plans to play 5 more seasons? This isn’t Tom Brady the statue firing from a protected pocket.

Probably should not have gone there.

LeBron does not need defending.

LeBron would play center for the Warriors.

If the Lakers traded LeBron it would be because LeBron wanted to leave, and they would want cap space and first round picks in return - main pieces would be CP3 or Klay, multiple first round picks, and a young player like Kuminga or Pods.

I was a Celtic fan when Jordan surpassed Magic and Bird. Celtic fans were not happy but my first Love was Bruins hockey.

I drove Dennis Johnson to work and gushed some stupid fan gush that praised the Celtic team instead of specifically praising DJ. I felt bad afterwords because I felt like I sounded like a racist fan of the great white hope. I was actually more of a Cedric Maxwell fan than I was a Bird fan so I did not take it so hard when Jordan passed Bird.

But from hearing how hurt the Bird fans were from being passed by Jordan I could relate to the pain of the Kobe fans being passed by LeBron. Humans are nuts and will figh wars over what is the true religion. As far as I know Kobe fans and LeBron fans never resorted to violence. I hope Trump lovers and Trump haters never resort to violence but humans are crazy so anything is possible.

The facts backed LeBron over Kobe but facts don’t matter when emotional loyalty is strong.

I think LeBron does not like playing center. Maybe LeBron could play 10 minutes a game of center and Draymond 20 minutes per game of center. Looney 6 minutes. Trayce 6 minutes and a 7’ 2” 280 pound stiff 6 minutes.

Yawn. Non-story. Never going to happen. But something to talk about, I guess.

More tidbits on what went down, including the suggestion that Draymond actually instigated the Warriors' overtures to acquire LeBron. Someone needs to explain to Draymond the meaning of "frenemy." :D

https://sports.yahoo.com/lebron-james-and-stephen-curry-together-youre-missing-the-real-story-193015802.html

"Warriors star Draymond Green, who shares agent Rich Paul with James, encouraged Golden State's brass to broach the subject with their counterparts in Los Angeles."
