You get an award!
You get an award!
Everybody gets awards!!
I'd take it. Just have them plant it below my Laker Logo.
Years ago they handing out those swell Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards. I was promised one, but, it never showed up. I knew they weren't telling the truth. I knew I wouldn't get it.
Usually the categories are:
- MVP
- Rookie of the Year
- Best Troll
- Worst poster
- Most butthurt
- Comeback of the Year
My selections:
MVP: ElNono. Has to be. His .500 thread sustained for 75% of the year and he "was right about them Lakers" till the very last game of the season. He puts in tireless work on the board and is always an entertaining read.
1st runner up: Harlem Heat
2nd runner up: DPG
Rookie of the Year: Aaron and HiFi. Not sure when they registered, but I haven't seen them prior, and they're really the only new posters who've stood out to me. LakersaretheBesteva, who I know is hit and miss with some, came too late in the season to qualify. But his hatred of LG earns big points with me, so he deserves mention. Tuna was a weak burn, imo. But his LG work deserves appreciation.
Best troll: Zero standouts this season. D12 and Asif are failed impressions of 21_Blessings and lakaluva. BUMP rarely posts anymore. Mono and m>s seem to be retired from the troll game. Jamstone no longer posts with NativeAmerican, OGBobbyJohnson, or TheLakaluvaLibrary. The troll era is pretty much bygone on the NBA forum.
Worst Poster: FKLA might the obvious choice for some. But bad takes don't necessarily equate to being a bad poster. A least he's willing to stick around and defend his points til the bitter end, no matter how re ed or unpopular his opinion might be. FKLA at least brings drama, livens things up with his hated of Dirk, is at times unintentionally hilarious (Diaw>Lee), and takes our racist insults in stride. One thing I can say is I'm never bored reading FKLA going back-and-forth with a Mav Krew member.
For me, it's hater. Fails at the one-liner shtick and is just rather boring overall.
Most Butthurt: Yours truly. Every Lakers win irritates the out of me this year for some reason (which I let known in game threads), even though I know they have no chance of winning anything, there's just something about this particular Lakers team that aggravates me. And no, it isn't their preseason hype or payroll, or even Dwight Howard. Can't put my finger on it, honestly. I just know I get angrier when they win a meaningless regular season game than when Kirb went up 5>4.
On that note, I'm turning over a new leaf. I'm retiring from the Kobe vs. Duncan debate and going to stop incessantly arguing with Lakers fans over trivial . Been at this too long, and it's really time to get back to talking basketball.
Comeback of the Year: Culburn. Who else?

Accurate.
What do you think of me retiring from Laker Hating?
Did I finally set myself straight?
i dont see that lasting long... but
![]()
i really didnt understand this
and tbh, i started the short lasting tuna shtick
How so?
until the spurs are up 3 games on the Lakers and it's down to the final minute of the 4th quarter of the series clinching game. someone will post the zoom gif of Mitch from last year, and it will light a spark in your eyes. just wait smh. just wait.
I was just getting a kick out of your laker haterade, shame it has come to an end. Was that just a consistent troll job?
i wanted a school....
Impossible, tbh.... despising the Lakers isn't something you can retire from, it's ingrained in every actual basketball fan from birth....
Too bad being funny is not something you were born with![]()
Yeah, if only I had the masterful wit to come up with like "Tuna"![]()
At times. But I legitimately don't like the Lakers.
Disliked them even before the Lakers/Spurs rivalry became notable (was too young to see Gervin vs. Magic in the 80's). Growing up in So Cal, I just never latched on to the Lakers. And since I was overly compe ive and all my friends were Lakers fans, I always wanted the Lakers to lose so I could give my friends . I was the type who had to beat my friends in everything. Whether it was one-on-one basketball. Make shift homerun derbies in the front yard. Video games. Or the Lakers losing, which was a "victory" for me. Great friend. I know.![]()
And that at ude persists to this day.
It's a stupid, childish at ude. But we all have our quirks.
True. The hate will never leave me internally. But I think I'll retire from all the -flinging I engage on here with the likes of Kool and such.
Though fun to argue Amb I'm with you Kobe vs Duncan is dead for me as well unless Duncan rangs or makes Finals not sure anything tangible can change that debate unless Lakers get past 2nd round minus Kobe ...solid picks Mid but DPG is always tops on my list me ...internet awards ...this is what I'm responding to smh
it shtuck tbhtemporarily at least, I mean he did put it under his name "the tuna"

My Diaw take is literally the only terrible take Ive had. My opinions on Dirk, the majority of the people would agree with me as Ive already proved tbh.![]()
