There were a few entitled NBA players and media that really tried to push the Delly is dirty bull for a while. Turns out it was players flopping or not willing to compete, and he has never made a dirty play in his life. The players and media who said it really need to be called out.


It's crazy what Elon accomplished after his basketball career was over....

4) The cap is going up

6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

This one is so good because look how hard Cousy is coming off that screen. Plumbers can’t do that.

And oh yeah….look at that screen again for a second. Haha. Anyone can get their teammate to screen for them, it’s harder to get the other team to do it for you.

Lebron deserves a caption, probably yelling at Bronny about how ugly that shot looks. :lol:

You do know that Jerry Buss bought the Lakers 40+ years ago, right?


And that his daughter has been a high level executive with the team for over 25 years, right?

Just seems weird to now complain of Lakers nepotism when they've openly engaged in it for decades.

You're absolutely right. The nepotism issues poisoning Lakers have never been covered before. Weird. If only an outlet like, say ESPN, talked about it years after years right?

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18822531/faq-lakers-buss-family-drama
Now that you got your Pullitzer locked in, could you please tell me:
- What do you find cool in blatant nepotism?
- Where I can find, in this topic, pictures of the Buss family together on a basketball court (if you don't, you can extend your researchs to the Reinsdorf family or the Lacob one, I don't want to discriminate) so that I can make the same comment?
