Is the Lakers' path to the le....

[dirk4mvp]

At least Gino isn't from Detroit. Then DrHouse would let him know about his $18k house.

[Gino]

Gino is a pasty white guy with a Boston accent.

Let me guess. You dont actually live in LA, correct?

This gets back to the stereo-typical Laker fan.

Doesnt live anywhere near LA. Clings to successful sports franchises to compensate for his inferiority complex.

[DPG21920]

lol

[ginobili's bald spot]

That other thread was the king of all butthurt. You don't talk about the national anthem when Gino is around!

I don't think the national anthem is that impressive. It's just lucky that not a lot of songs were around back then to challenge it. Truth is, you could replace it with any soulja boy song and it would still get the job done. The national anthem is just overrated by the media.

Lived in South LA my whole life.

Well that same Suns team curb-stomped essentially this same Laker team minus Fisher and Gasol.

This is one of the dumbest sentences I've ever read.

[TheManFromAcme]

False.

Its not envy, its reality. The theme of this thread is "Laker fans: GET OVER YOURSELVES! YOU DIDNT HAVE TO BEAT ANYBODY!"

That doesnt mean its the Lakers fault, but the Lakers havent proven anything these playoffs other than Kobe needs to be saved by his teammates for his poor decision making and the Lakers lucked out.

What do you mean by proven? I hate to play the part of Captain Obvious here but the Lakers are in the finals you know. What's anybody?
This is the NBA. All teams in the league, regardless of how their structured and through no fault of the players compete for the same prize year in,year out. How is it the Lakers fault or any team for that matter who they play regardless of how weak the team may seem to "Joe" fan?

As for Kobe; Well, he does blunder at times and does make poor decisions at times but you won't get an argument out of me on that one but teammates are there to bail you out last time I checked hence....team.

I am just trying real hard here to understand the "Lakers haven't beat anybody" concept. Quite perplexing if you ask me.

[Gino]

This is one of the dumbest sentences I've ever read.

Im done with you, fool.

Youre as much a Suns fan as I am a Spurs fan.

Wait, check that. I actually respect the Spurs. I can say that they are a good team and they have good players.

I havent heard anything from you besides everyone on the Suns sans Shaq is worhtless and they are worst franchise in the history of sports.

ALL points you said are true. Thats been my point. Its not the Lakers fault that everyone else got injured, but Laker fans need to check the "Kobe proved himself" garbage.

The Lakers had to beat four mediocre teams and didnt look very good doing it.

yet if he was saying good things about his team you would call him a homer, like you have been doing to lakerfans all day. consistency. Whatever suits your argument right gino?

Like calling Spurs fans insecure when your avatar is of Ginobili

[Gino]

Umm...okay:

lol glorifying the 2007 Suns.

That team would get curbstomped by the 2009 Magic. They won 15 games in a row and then 17, and that doesn't mean . They beat a bunch of crappy teams and somewhat fell apart once their schedule picked up after the all star break.

On players you actually like:

Shaq, ponytail , Goran "White Magic" Dragic, and Jared Dudley.

Nice. Calling your own players that you "like" a " ".



Here's you on your name:

Yeah probably I can't remember. I'll probably get it changed to Dragic > Nash

Youre a ing broken record about how much the Suns suck. No one gives a , dumbass.

[LakeShow]

Lame thread

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Listen don't talk about you don't know about. Dirk4mvp called him that and I was responding to his post so I jokingly called him ponytail .

My screen name is a joke. Does it hurt your feeeelings? When do you see me talking about Manu? You don't. And you especially wouldn't see me go on a crusade making every post about him and how much he sucks. Why? Because I like him as a player. But lets not let facts get in the way. Besides what reason would I have to be insecure about Ginobili anyway?

[DPG21920]

People calling Kobe a rapist is a joke. We all know he just cheated on his wife. Who makes their every post about the Lakers or Kobe? What reason would anyone have to be insecure about him anyways?

Spurs have Tim Duncan that is better so it is not like Spurs are suffering from envy?

Does it hurt your feelings if a Spurs fan comments on the Lakers on ST?

[DrHouse]

Kobe can't win without Shaq.

[TheManFromAcme]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, we haven't beaten the Magic quite just yet. I guess if I had to pin-point my perplexion it would be the term "mediocre". Again, ALL these teams play in the NBA at which (and I am going on a limb here) 75-80% of all these teams can on any given night beat ANY team in the league. Your on the ball with the Houston series. That was a puzzle if I ever saw one. but I would venture to say that Utah, Houston, Denver and Orlando are maybe not top tier teams but compe ive nonetheless and capable of beating your beloved Spurs and my beloved Lakers at any given time. I'll stick with you on the "Kobe proved himself" argument. I am a "team" kind of fan and the way I see it, it's the "Lakers proved themselves" line that I'll stick with.

[DrHouse]

What I want to know is why can't Kobe do without Shaq?

[dirk4mvp]

lol ponytail

Nothing to refute. I agree that none were top tier teams which hasnt happened..well....ever.

I disagree with the "proving" rhetoric, but I think that was started more by Dr. .
