Mr. Sun your so right, I'm an old school type guy myself hell most of these young guys don't even know that some of the coaches today played in the league not that long ago.
I can't speak for all the Laker fans but myself I feel as though if I come to somebodys board, I don't come to gloat or rave on how great my team is I just talk the basics of basketball.
I think the problem with some of the boards is that most of these guys are maybe high school and college guys, and they really don't have a true understanding of the NBA at all. I mean I can tell just by reading their post most of the time. They do things like make predictions on games without giving a valid reason for why they even came to that analysis.
