Nice movie reference.
"Do everybody a favor and knock this chump (Lakers) out."

And let the undying urge of half this board to diminish a game between the defending champions and a team whose every move this offseason was predicated on beating the defending champions.
If Gasol sits out, then I may creep over to the "overhyped" view, since beating a Gasol-less Laker team won't really mean much (although losing to one...).

Urge = fact?
The spurs beat the lakers in a game similar to this last year.
Yeah that was a clear foreshadowing of events that would come...

Hey fool! You ready for another beating? You shoulda never came back!
The sarcasm would work better had we actually lost to the Lakers in the playoffs...![]()
The little man don't wanna come to me. Then I'll come to you people to lay out the truth. I am ranked Number One. ONE! That means I'm the best! But this bum been taking the easy matches, fighting other bums. I'm telling you and everybody here, I'll fight him anywhere, anytime, for nothing.
-The Lakers-
meaningless regular season game... I would prefer to lose this one in a blowout and win it all in postseason...
As EricB said... last year we won a similar game and then the outcome was atrocious...
Just a reg season game against an old rival...
Both TP and Manu putting comments on their FB pages about it... they're both exited with extra energy because of the rival that's for sure though...
And lost in all this "early season" yapping is that the trade deadline hasn't come up yet. Go hard against LA (and Dallas, Denver, etc.) to see what we really have (or don't have).
And Mickey is the Mavs![]()
Does that make the Lakers Thunderlips?

Spurs better call Bob Hope!
No, that was Rocky IV.
Wasn't Creed once the champ though?
Tell Mav and Suns fan that, the kings of the regular season
Correct. Rocky lost to Apollo in the first Rocky but beat him in the second. At the beginning of Rocky III, Creed is a guest announcer and goes to shake hands with both Rocky and Clubber Lang before the fight. Clubber talks mad to Apollo, so Apollo says to his former rival Rocky, "Do us all a favor and knock this chump out!"
Great moment in cinema history.
Then Rocky gets his ass kicked by Clubber so Apollo decides to train Rocky for the re-match. This led to the following, bizzare, yet intense training sequence:
I was so sad when Apollo died
Both in the movie and in real life.![]()
