Metta World Peace(Stick a fork in him he's done)

Do you think management may still use the amnesty clause on him? Just doesn't seem to be anything left in the tank and I'm not sure he gives a damn about hoops anymore. I knew he was done against Dallas when he went up for a layup and couldn't get above the rim!

Bro, I'm in Vietnam now. So even if I did, I can't just take the next plane out of here to hang with you. Or can I? :lol:

So, this is how we treat our players after they take a pay cut to come help us win a chip?

Hey, World Peace; thanks for helping us beat Boston, but you're of no further use to us based on recent pre-season games after a huge lay off - Get out.

Jimbo did it to Lakers Championship Coaching staff, the old guard management and long time Lakers employees, Lamar Odom, so why not stop at World Peace?

I agree and Laker fans wonder why other fan base think of us as a bunch of spoiled brats.

Been here in Saigon for 10 months now. Looking to stay longer if I can. No real reason to go back to California... well except for you and maybe Jetset. :lol:

Originally flew here because of my father. He suffered a minor stroke last February. Then had a wedding in the Summer where I was the best man. A few relatives birthdays later, I had to go for my grandmother's 1 year since her death; Vietnamese tradition to honor your relatives on the 49th day, 1 year, and 2nd year at where they are buried.

My dad is getting better. I flew him to California to file for disability, but of course he got denied. :(

Just so you know, the Banh Mi includes dog meat. Just kidding. :lol:

One thing great about being Vietnamese is the food. I've eaten Vietnamese food in Little Saigon - California, Houston - TX, Florida, HCMC - VN, and Hue - VN. The best Vietnamese food I've ever had still was cooked from my mother.

Coming to Vietnam, I recently realized that there are different styles of Vietnamese food too.

I still miss a good steak and American food once and a while, but I have lost over 10kgs ever since I've been here. So eating healthy counts.
