I think he would fit right in

Him and Harden hold similar ideologies on the defensive end of the floor :lol:

Maybe they are just posturing to ensure Howard opts out.

So Knicks just hired Hornacek . Is Rambis someone we want back in Laker land?

I hope that the Cavaliers get swept handily in the finals. I'm so tired of hearing about how they are the best team in basketball when they haven't had to play a real team yet I mean I think Portland could have put up a better fight than anbody the cavs have played.

Average point differential over the first two games in the Least Finals is 25. I'm not even sure how long people can pretend like the conference disparity is not an issue.

Dwight Howard did a Q&A with ESPN and here is a quote from that interview:

Howard:

"I just felt like it wasn't a team. I wanted a team. There were things that went on during the season that made me feel like I wasn't a part of it, like the thing with Kobe and my shoulder. People were saying, 'Dwight's so strong, he's Superman, he should play through it.' It was a torn labrum. I should have had surgery, but I didn't. I came back instead.

"I'll never forget the game we played against the Celtics in Boston [on Feb. 7, 2013]. I hadn't practiced for a while -- I had just been working on the treadmill. But I played in Boston. We got blown out. Coach [Mike D'Antoni] still had me in when we were down 30. After the game, I'm walking off the court and a Lakers fan throws his jersey and hits me in the face. It was my name on that jersey. I will never forget that the rest of my life.

After reading that garbage, I think this guy is the biggest D-bag I've ever heard of. He's obviously on a tour to clear his name somewhat so that he can get a huge contract from somebody. In the process, he is throwing everybody that he's ever had to deal with under the bus. In his mind, he's never done anything wrong and nothing is his fault. I just hope he goes to somebody like the Celtics or Dallas so that he could ruin their team.

Best thing I've read all day... Means he'll never be a Laker again...

He's got a bigger vagina than Caitlyn Jenner...

This Warriors-Thunder game makes me think Draymond Green is overrated ... Way to emotional and just not good offensively

Remember when everybody in the world forgot about Kevin Durant and labeled Curry as the best player in the world?

Wavy Q · Post #1058 » by **Wavy Q** » Mon May 23, 2016 2:02 am
