What are your thoughts on this guys? I checked out Woj and Kevin Ding's twitter but nothing on this. Seems only the ESPN person, Ramona Shelburne is the one with the news. Anyone know of their credibility?
That beyatch is making up sh*t.....think about it this chic just popped on the scene just a year or so ago, she's trying to get a rep for breaking something.

They still ran some sequences of it. Mostly the "sideline Tri sets".......I bust up every time I saw that exact same quote. Most people don't even recognize the formations or the counters to the offense, it baffles me. I know that offense inside out, especially having played in something close to it in high school.

Ramona Shelburne is incredibly reliable. She didn't just pop on the scene a yr or so ago. she was one of the writers brought on to debut espnla.com and was with the la daily news for SEVEN YEARS before that.

Either way she sucks, she may be credible to YOU....but I never heard of this whore until last year. And it's not like ESPNLA has been around that long (3 years) and I know she wasn't a Laker beat writer until a few years ago at the sorry Daily.

How is that Heisler, nor Ding or any other known LA writer doesn't have this and she does ?

I'm inclined to think she's making up this fantasy in her head.

that whore? c'mon DEEP

anywhoo, she's the one assigned on the lakers beat for this road trip for espnla.com, she's just not randomly writing stuff.

dude dont mess with tropic thunder...he knows everything...and yeah, like i have said before brown sucks...but he does have his moments...

ill say this again...the lakers are the new dodgers, ala 20 years ago...jerry buss=walter o'malley , as jimmyshortbuss=peter o'malley....

brown shouldve never been hired the way he was...and no the lakers havent run a pure triangle, since like ever...

A big problem is Kobe going into chuck mode too often. Whenever he is having one of hits 8-30 games, the rest of the team basically gives half effort on Defense/Rebounding and just about everything else. Watch highlights from last game with Bynum just standing and watching Kobe shoot. He doesn't even move towards the rim just stands straight up. I can't really blame him that much since Kobe was ignoring everyone else.

Don't tell me you seriously believe EVERYTHING a beat writer writes ?

Like I said I can sense when somebody is trying to make a rep for themselves. She's one of those types.

And the "whore" reference may have been strong wording, but she gains no credibility with me by trying to insinuate something that may have not been directly relayed to her....which I think is the case. Players don't open up like that period.
