Why are you up this late? Is the fat chick you brought home demanding hand fed burritos till dawn?
You realize he's only playing 28 minutes and averaging only 11 shots a game?Maybe not totally on. But 13/10 won't get the Sp*rs more than 1 win against the champs in a playoff series. He better raise the bar.
Dumb Laker fans. Stupidest fanbase in existence, bar none.

The age 34 stats of Charles, Shaq, and Hakeem disagree. Talking out your ass again.Because he's washed up!!! If he could play more minutes, he would. It's not like you guys have another decent big man, Duncan is being monitored so closely that they cant afford to play him more than 30 minutes. This will eventually be another knock on his legacy that I will spear drive into full force as the season progresses. Compared to all of the other great bigs, Duncan had the least longevity.
Not everyone can sip stem cells and have the kind of longevity as Kareem and Malone.
And why play your stars anymore than needed? I understand Kobe demands it because he likes to statpad, as he did against Washington. er was still in at the 3:00 mark in the 4th when the Lakers were up like 20. But the Spurs don't resort to Bush-league like that.
I think it is gonna be real ugly if we play the Sp*rs. Manu will have to guard Kobe on the block. TD will have to guard Pau on the block. Blair will have to guard Bynum on the block. will have to guard Artest - you guessed it - on the block. In other words, the paint is where we will dominate them. I foresee a lot of free throws for the Lakers and foul trouble for the Sp*rs. They better make a trade to get them some size, tbh.
You're a and you crossed my mind as I replied to you, so yes, the thought of a has crossed my mind.
And I think about girls, too, if that's what you meant. Try it sometime. You'll find them a more pleasing vision than Koolaid_Man's asshole.
But knowing you, maybe not.
Well, you will need him for more than 28 minutes against the champs. I guarantee it. The thing is, can he play more than that? If not a lot of Sp*r fans will be like this:tbh.
No .Well, you will need him for more than 28 minutes against the champs. I guarantee it. The thing is, can he play more than that? If not a lot of Sp*r fans will be like this:
But can he be depended upon to play more than 28 effective mpg against the champs? Answer the question and don't spin it
Don't know. That's why they play the games.But can he be depended upon to play more than 28 effective mpg against the champs? Answer the question and don't spin it
Spin this Sp*r fans - this article was written in 2003 but still applies today. Stern even had his minions pull this off on the road no less...for the Sp*rs. Spin this dammit!"A ref who is focused on the defender’s feet will be clueless on the most important consideration: the precise position of the defender when the driver reaches the point of no return — that is, the point at which the driver cannot change his directional path even if he wants to. Not only is that point well before the moment of collision, it is well before the driver ascends."
You know mother er. Don't play dumber than you are. Fact is he is not strong enough to handle Bynum without a double team and he is not quick enough to guard Pau without a double team. You talk about Blake, but Blake is a pass 1st PG that will absolutely add to the Lakers' strengths: post play. Plus he shooting 48% from 3pt territory to provide the proper spacing the Lakers need for their bigs to do damage. Pau's silky smooth jumper has returned as well. Here's proof. We have at least 4 players that can post up. , TP, and Manu are poor low post defenders. TD can't cover for them all like he used to and give you 15ppg. He'll need to drink some 5 hour energy or some Red Bull just minutes before tipoff. And you guys are starting De-Juana mother ing Blair at center and backing him up with Bonner? Get out the Vaseline and Preparation-H because you guys are ed.
You seem to very proud of the fact that you put an asterisk for the U when you spell out Spurs. Did you figure out that one yourself, or did someone help you? Coming up with something that clever had to be a two or more person job, no doubt.Spin this Sp*r fans - this article was written in 2003 but still applies today.

And while we're at it, I take it you're referring to the '99 le? Tell me, what happened during the second round of that year's Western Conference playoffs?
PJ said put an asterisk next to the '99 " le" not me. If you ask me, the asterisk can also apply to the fact that you guys tanked to get TD. IIRC the Admiral played a whopping 6 games in 1996, but in 1997 he somehow managed to play 73.
San Antonio, where asterisks happens.
You can never know. You thought you knew in '04, that Kobe would abuse the Pistons. But what occurred was one of the worst performances in Finals' history. You thought you knew in '08, but what occurred was another -the-bed Finals performance by Kobe.You know mother er. Don't play dumber than you are.

And Artest's ty post game doesn't scare me in the slightest. Blake? When has he ever been a post up player? Odom's post game is below average. He's more of a face up player, like KG, etc. And yes, the Lakers matchup well with the Spurs' frontline, but the Spurs perimeter matches up well with the Lakers.
The Lakers are definitely the favorite if healthy, but if the Spurs get hot and Duncan finds some of his old form, it'll be a compe ive series. But I know the Laker fan way is to be an obnoxious, frontrunner homer, so feel free to suck your team's and proclaim them invincible.
Quit being a pussy and tell me what happened in the 2nd round of that asterisk year.PJ said put an asterisk next to the '99 " le" not me.

Never said Blake had a post game. I said he is a pass 1st PG. That means he will willingly pass into the post. The fact that he is a deadeye shooter will give them the proper spacing to go to work.
The 2004 Lakers looked good on paper. Facts are GP was dumber than Artest in triangle knowledge (plus he got abused by Billups) and Malone got hurt. Those two factors subdued us moreso than the Pistons did.
Your perimeter might matchup with ours - scoring wise*. But you still gotta play defense. I can't wait until Kobe takes Manu or TP (if PJ calls for a play to make TP have to guard Kobe) into the post. Either will be in foul trouble like Ray Allen was in the Finals.
*The Lakers' guards who will get regular minutes in the playoffs (Kobe, Brown, Fish Blake, Barnes) average about 58 ppg. The Sp*rs' guards who will get regular minutes in the playoffs (TP, Manu, Hill, ,) averages about 63 ppg. The Lakers are -5 going in. I like the Lakers chances in that regard.
It would be foolish to think they are invincible. But, they are constructed to matchup with every team in the league and can play any style to get the W. So again, I like our chances if healthy.
Just the opposite of what happened in 2001.
You're comparing 5 lakers to 4 Spurs. Neal will get playing time in the playoffs. Spin it anyway you want, the Spurs have an advantage on the perimeter. Kobe is the only player they have to worry about on the defensive end. Fisher and Artest do a good job of guarding themselves, and Blake and Barnes aren't exactly offensive juggernauts. Brown is an x-factor, however. He could explode or he could disappear. Don't know.Never said Blake had a post game. I said he is a pass 1st PG. That means he will willingly pass into the post. The fact that he is a deadeye shooter will give them the proper spacing to go to work.

I don't disagree with anything else you said, but you should give the Pistons credit for destroying that ass rather than cop out with excuses.
Fisher is a clutch shooter (remember 0.4?) - we don't need his scoring. The mere threat of his shooting provides spacing - just like Blake's. Matter of fact, his mpg will dwindle as the season wears on and don't be surprised if Blake doesn't start. Barnes is a garbage point player that we don't run plays for. What he does is rebound, cut to the basket for layups/dunks, and hustle. Brown has surprised. He started off tearing it up and has cooled off as expected. They are all complimentary players when you get down to it.
I've compared 5 Lakers to your 4 because I guarantee you the Lakers use all 5 guards. Now it's just a hunch, but if Pop has to go to Neal, y'all are in trouble (although it might have to happen - especially if Kobe takes Beak into the post. I could see it now: Sp*r fans ing at Kobe's FTAs when you should be complaining about Manu's lack of low post defense causing him to have to foul Kobe because he can't stop him.
And yes, the 2004 Pisstons curb stomped us which still pisses me off to this day.
WTF is in your sig?....On another note, wouldn't mind the Spurs winning it all, but would like to see Dirk get a ring
Unless Neal has a dramatic drop off, he will be a part of the post-season rotation.Fisher is a clutch shooter (remember 0.4?
