Methlohoma vs. the Memphis Lakers Game Thread

[RD2191]

Fuck Memphis. Spurs have owned their fagget asses since they beat us in round 1 a couple of seasons ago.

[Darius McCrary]

No chance the refs let this one end in 5.

[HarlemHeat37]

Memphis would be down 3-1 if Westbrook was playing, tbh..lucky break for them..

The Grizzlies are one of the most ref-dependent teams I've ever seen, tbh..

[Koolaid_Man]

Z-BO / GASOL > 100 TOSB's

[TheCultOfPersonality]

2 seasons ago the Grizzlies blew a 17 point lead in Game 4 against the Thunder and lost in triple overtime.

Today the Thunder blew a 17 point lead in Game 4 against the Grizzlies and lost in overtime.

What a coincidence.

[Fabbs]

Fisher should use his daughter to get a cushy coaching gig when he's retired.
disgusting fraud probably will. :lol

At least for now we can celibrate the elimination of the two biggest WWE frauds in NBA history.
Kirby and Fishdouche.

[HI-FI]

Grizzlies looking good. still I bet OKC wins their next game, Grizzlies finish it off in 6.

[Koolaid_Man]

Memphis would be down 3-1 if Westbrook was playing, tbh..lucky break..

GIRIZZ HAVE GREAT BALANCE...Look out MIAMI

[Robz4000]

I think OKC takes game 5 behind Durant's 20+ FT's attempts.

Nah, they already look done. They have their excuse with Westbrook gone and for the most part they're a young team and know they'll be back next year. OKC is ready to go fishing.

[Capt Bringdown]

Fuck Memphis. Spurs have owned their fagget asses since they beat us in round 1 a couple of seasons ago.
Conley, Gasol and Randolph are playing at peak level. Wish I could say that about anyone on the Spurs squad.

[Koolaid_Man]

IT's GRIZZLE TIME

[Koolaid_Man]

THEY NEED THAT FUCKING CROSSDRESSER!!! Durant can't get it done

[oh crap]

This is going 6, maybe 7. I'll tell you this, Spurs want NO part of that Memphis team.

[Koolaid_Man]

TONY ALLEN DEFENSE > TONY PARKER OFFENSE

Kobe????????? Oh wait he was on crutches and his team got swept ! THAT TOSB!!!!!!!!!!

[LkrFan]

Is Daaaawhite even a top 5 big?

I'd take both Gasols, Noah, Randolph, Duncan over the guy who Mitch told, "Your jersey is gonna be hanging up there." :lmao
Defensively? No doubt. Best rebounder in the game. Defense was starting to come close to form until...The Skunker! :lol

Offensively? He's a bottom dweller at best. Once he gets back to his monkeyballing self, I'll put him middle of the pack.

I'd trade him for a package featuring Fat Gasol right now. Ditto for Noah. But that's where it stops.

[Koolaid_Man]

Quit spamming, Kool.


BEND OVA AND I'LL SHOW YOU SPAMMING

[Josh810]

WTF?! Calling out your own colleague? Is that allowed? :lol
He wasn't being serious. He was making fun of how fans complain about everything and they send Kerr hate just for tweeting about games.

[Capt Bringdown]

Right now I'm only seeing 2 teams remaining that appear to be capable of playing championship level defense. Unfortunately, neither of them wear the silver and black :(

[Koolaid_Man]

I'M HAPPY TONIGHT MIDGET

[midnightpulp]

Great businessmen don't sign 40 year old point guards to 3 year deals worth 27 million dollars.

Mitch is a below average GM, at best.

[Koolaid_Man]

NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT FUCKING MINDS WOULD WANT TO SEE DUNCAN MAKE THE FINALS THIS YEAR...Spurs being there would severely damage the NBA brand..this is one time I'm all for the FIX being in...

Fuck The Police?

Nahhh Fuck The Spurs

[Sean Cagney]

Whatever, Mambas future doesn't look too great either at that age with that injury.

He does not have a crystal ball... and money is never an issue for the Lakers, dont hate cause we more popular than you. But yeah 9 mill is more than I would of paid, i think around the 4-6 mill max is what he should of gotten.

[Robz4000]

What's funny is none of us thought Memphis would be in this position after their trades during the season. Fucking :lolinger.

[whitemamba]

cant disagree with you, but well see... cant doubt the guys work ethic, i think its about what his body can handle at this point.

[HI-FI]

i actually thought it was a smart hire. the guy is obviously very smart and passionate about bball and numbers. you could do a lot worse....like whoever the Lakers have crunching their stats.

[Monster1776]

Have to say that was one of the most painful series to watch in recent memory.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Charles Barkley is picking the Grizzlies to go to the FInals.

I hope he's right, but we gotta take care of Oklahoma City first. They are a tough team.

tbh, your future isn't bright as it once was. meaning, the league is moving closer to a hard cap or something similar, which will severely fuck over the Lakers success. Even if Lakers win a ring before Spurs, i don't see you guys ever having some dynasty like the 80s or 00s. you might have to eke it out like the rest of us:lol

[Clipper Nation]

:lol Take a look back at how useless Chauncey Billups was this year, because that's how the rest of Kirby's career is looking like it'll play out....

comparing chauncey to kobe shows how stupid you really are.

Having Barkley pick you is the kiss of death. Just ask the Spurs.

Likewise, always a fun series to watch with you all even though it tends to be the most gut wrenching; not often I get sick after a game like this.

[Clipper Nation]

comparing chauncey to kobe shows how stupid you really are.

Both had the same exact injury, and both are TOSB's, you do the math :lol

And while you're at it, own up, son.... :lol

wasnt that time warner deal like 2 billion dollars or what ever, they can sit and fuck around and pay taxes for 20 more years and still pop bottles and spray em on your bitches.

[whitemamba]

Im stupidPERIOD

[Clipper Nation]

:lol Changing quotes
:lol Ass-pained to the extreme

Son, all you have to do is just own up and make the butthurt disappear :lol

[whitemamba]

Im still a faggotPERIOD

[HI-FI]

you don't know the particulars of the deal. it's possible Time warner can opt out if Lakers become a trainwreck like appear headed. I imagine TW will continue to pay though because Lakers=bandwagoners+bean3rs=profits.

But with the new luxury tax, Lakers won't be spending like they once did. Owners don't give a shit, with the revenue sharing they'll gladly take more of their pie.

I hate to say it, but not really, but Lakers dynasty days are behind them, Rapist won't be the same.

shit if the league goes to a hard cap, Spurs and the fanbase would be far better prepared for that than Lakers.

we both know they are not opting out. thats that. Kobe's contract is done after this year, and if he comes back theres no fucking way hes getting more than 12-15 mill. Lakers will have the cap to attract some other super star for the future, you got to remember bro this is LA, and people want to come here and run the show. Im sure management upstairs is workin on somethin for the future. Like for example, no troll intended with this, but in 2014 lebrons a free agent and you say choose SA or LA what do you think he will say?

He'll choose LA....






....the Clippers, that is :downspin:

[Jacob1983]

Barkley was right about the Mavs beating the Lakers in 2011. I believe he was the only one on Inside the NBA that picked the Mavs to beat the Lakers in 2011. Not always a kiss of death.

well no shit people would prefer LA over SA, but I don't think SA is a shithole. it's more humid, and there's obviously more things to do, celebs,pussy etc....

But you act like Lakers are the only place that can offer this. Miami seems to be very attractive, NYC is still a prime location, and ultimately it's about the money and organization. Location is important, and SA is not a bad location, but obviously LA offers more things to do.

like I said, just because they are making lots of money from the TW deal, you are crazy if you think the Buss family will blow through cash like they once did. Lakers are their main source of income, they will have to deal with the realities of parity (or something similar) like the other teams. if they did go to a true hard cap, Laker bandwagoners would jump ship.

I have never been to SA personally, got a chance to see Houston once, and it was meh.. Cant stay out of southern cal for too long once you have come.
As for their source of income, its not just the Time Warner deal dude.. they make money a shit ton of other ways, they have been rining for years without time warners money, and now that they have it, its puts them ahead of the league even more, it means they can pay the luxury tax to have multiple star while other teams cant afford it. This cap shit may benefit the lakers who knows.

so pretty much Laker fans arrogance comes from teh ability to outspend. pretty much like Yankees fans.

the Buss family only have the Lakers. they might have some other investments, real estate etc....but they aren't like brilliant businessman. shit, Jim Buss is your typical coked up LA rich kid, only has any success because of daddy. Good luck with him running things.

They won't be spending like they once did, unless they like pissing cash away. And even if they continue blowing through cash, that shit doesn't always mean nothing, as this year is living proof of a what a $100 million shit sandwich looks like. like I said, Laker fans better pray there is never a hard cap like the NFL.

It's interesting that Durant dresses in normal clothes during postgame interviews without Alpha there to dress him.
