If anybody is interested in a serious answer, tbh I think that's all the Hollinger bullshit, crunching all team stats into his nerdy calculator and coming up with team projections. I guess according to Hollinger's numbers, Minnesota is a better team than Houston even if the W/L record suggests otherwise. This happened for a few years with Hollinger and the Jazz, everyone with a brain knew they were non-contenders, but according to his system they were always 2nd or 3rd in the West and a Finals darkhorse.

So you committed fraud by violating the TOS and now you're admitting it online.

It's your real name. There's no reason to use that name that matches those allocations in Houston, just because you saw an old ass movie you found via Google after you were outed. It's cool, Cedric. I am not a stalker, I'd never go looking for you.

So either your entire schtick is a fraud (you and TSA) or you are Cedric and you're lying about it now, knowing that if you change anything or stop posting, you'll be admitting it.

Now the real question: Why did you decide to become a Lakers troll? Were you that bored as ES?

Cue the obligatory denial, challenging me to find you, followed by the standard fake ass thug and player shtick.
