    Hey LkrFan, while we're reminiscing on past takes, could you remind us all of who posted these?

    People fail to acknowledge that Kobe had to be an MJ/Scottie clone for the Lakers to be successful. He's lead the Lakers in assists and scoring for years. Now with Nash onboard, he can go into attack mode and leave the playmaking primarily to Nash. Teams will pay for tripling him with the game on the line. Nash will get open look after open look. Nash's midrange game will also be deadly playing with the weapons LA has.

    This season should be fun. Get your popcorn ready.
    If he remains healthy, yep. He literally makes everybody better. Unlike my main man Sessions, he won't the bed in the playoffs. He made Gortat shoot like 56% - imagine what he'll do for Bynum and Pau (I don't think D12 is coming to LA). Kobe respects him and will defer when necessary.

    We do need more athletes on the perimeter though. No use on getting Nash if he doesn't have the horses to run with. I suspect the roster, as currently constructed, is not the one we'll see in November.

    We'll see you guys in the Finals.
    ...and I guarantee you the Lakers' did their homework on this. No way they continue to dangle Bynum all summer if they were not 100% sure that D12 would be healthy if they traded for him.
    You should be PO'd with Daryl Moron tbh.

    - trying to derail my thread clowning Mav Fans who won't admit Daddy should have gotten paid is futile.

    Ah, Tyson. Letting him go is genius in some ways. His legend only grows with the absence, like a musician who dies too young.

    We never had to see Tyson fail. All we saw was success upon success with him. And of course, he was on hand for The Mother's Day Massacre, the curbstomping so severe we get asshurt threads like this one years after the fact. We will always have that, and whatever happened, and whatever will happen, that makes it all worth it.

    and it wasn't a bad move business-wise either. cuban avoided getting stuck with a long contract, while maintaining a decent team that was still good enough to make the playoffs the next year (swept in first round though). their playoff-attending streak would probably last longer had they re-signed TC, but it's not like he would win them another NBA le w/o the ambition and appe e that drove them to the summit in 11.

    mavs are in a good position to start rebuilding now and their financial health is good, at least they don't have a payroll topping 100m and an average age of 33 something. cuban knew he was lucky enough to steal a championship before the window was closed, and he also knew his team wouldn't have better luck than the 08' celtics. 11' mavs ain't the best team to ever win it, but they still won it anyway. a satisfied mind is an eternal feast
