Nah, I'd rather lose out the rest of the season if it meant pulling this game out of our asses.

Hah fair we were pretty pissed when we lost to you guys in Boston last season. As much as I hate you guys and do enjoy seeing you lose games, these matchups aren't all that fun anymore. I miss this

Image

Maybe Jaylen vs Ingram will be the next chapter of the rivalry.

Yeah the Celtics finals was the last time I genuinely hated an opponent. That was fun.

Hell LeBron is even hard to hate these days lol. Only teams I genuinely dislike right now are Raps and Dubs. One day we'll be at each other's necks again 8-) .

I'd like to see D'lo in the post this game if IT is guarding him. But I wouldn't be surprised if they put him on Swaggy P. Celtics don't really go small I don't think so this is a perfect game for Zupac to get some minutes.
LAKER FAN FOR LIFE

I think Russ and JC will the bulk of the assignment. All will struggle though. It's a tough assignment.

This is OT, but I honestly hate the Clippers more than any team including the Celtics (of course, having a Celtics fan as my mother may have something to do with this). At least the guys in green have a reason to be smug and arrogant. The Clips have accomplished **** since acquiring CP3 and they get loved by the media every year as "contenders" when we all know that they're gonna choke come May. God I hate the Clippers.

Anyways, Go Lakers!

Clippers may win a title someday, but they will always be a second rate franchise. The selfie banners are the most embarrassing thing I have ever seen in the NBA.

No one can in reality. It got to be a team approach.

Frantic pace already
