"Bubble here we come."
can't tank
down by 17 points @Toronto
Swaggy P leading the comeback
tanking fail
Yeah I dunno wtf is going on, they need to lose more. The worst record usually doesnt get the first pick but we gotta be in top 4.
and pocket aces doesn't usually win a holdem hand.
Only pussies & assholes tank.
So which one are you? You stupid chicken
15.3 PER is a career high for "swaggy P"![]()
At least there is one Lakers fan in this forum that still has his cojones.
Absolutely... preach Thread preach
Let the Lakers take the 9 seed of the west, fail at a draft pick and rebuild around Melo and Kobe
Tough night yesterday for a pats fan but niners screwed by ref and kaep plus Lakers adding 1 in the W column and Celtics adding 1 in the L column is helping me to swallow my bitter pill
Boston 27
Lakers 25
even at tanking the good guys in green own the got purples![]()
cojones to achieve what ?
"Pussies and gots" were the posters response for people who believe tanking is a viable option for a team. So what is the opposite???? Just put a little thought into it and you will get it.
ya because tanking is not a viable option for a team you moron ?
Spurs are too class to tank, right ?
Lakers best option is to tank, if that make them pussies and assholes what the ing deal ? you win respect by ulating LOB not because you are too damn proud to tank.... I thought Spurs fan would know tbh
Pussy and asshole... they're basically the same thing to Duncan imho.
Timmy would be hard pressed to decide between being in the middle of a human centipede or watching a handful of Mexicans fill up all of Amy's orifices.
You're funny. Since I have been alive, the Spurs have never tanked. The year when Robinson was injured, everyone knew the Spurs would suck. Remember the year the Spurs without Robinson in '88 season was the worse record the Spurs had up to that point. So no one was surprised the Spurs sucked in '96 when he was out for the year. Spurs were lucky with the timing of the injury.
Tanking is for idiots, just ask teams like the Clippers, Kings, Wizards, Bucks, etc. Essentially, teams that had/have been doing it for years. The Celtics kept on tanking in the 90's and where did that get them. Teams that find and develop talent are the ones that are going to be successful, especially under the new CBA. Here is a list of drafted players that have been key to the Spurs success since the Duncan era begin. Tony Parker #28 pick, Manu #57 pick, Splitter #28 pick, Kawhi Leonard via Hill trade (picked #26).
Winning games like the Lakers did last night, builds confidence in the team. And yeah, they probably aren't going to make the playoffs, but add a few good pieces to a confident team, and it will be successful. Add a few to a who gives a damn type of team, and I guarantee you, it won't be successful, much like the Lakers last year (w/ both Gasol and Howard being those who gives a damn players on the Lakers for much of the season).
didn't read the rest
Revisionist history. Spurs tanked PERIOD. Twice. No Timmy no David no rings. Yall just better at it.
Also tanking didn't help Celts right away but eventually led to the trades that netted KG, Rondo and Ray. Pierce was also a lotto pick.
Celtics wants to stock pill picks, that's their unique objective and I'm fine with that. I believe Rondo is gone and he will traded for essentially picks.
Your Lakers should do the same killa' no shame at tanking
Pierce, backing away from Artest.
ha.
I'm this one:::
Kobe: 5
the tired old bag Duncan: 4
Kobe, backing away from decency
ha.
lmemulatedao!!!
It usually does if you push the limpers out before the flop.
How did they tank twice. The year the Spurs sucked before Robinson, they drafted him two years beforehand and he didn't even have to sign with the Spurs at the time.
In '96, Sean Elliott got injured, Chuck Person (their 6th man prior two years) injured, Robinson injured, Charles Smith injured. 3 starters and your 6th man injured. That's not tanking, that is getting decimated by injuries. When looking at the Spurs roster, that is 4 of your best 5 players injured in one season and each missing 50+ games. Spurs had to sign over the hill players in Wilkins, Maxwell, etc to replace them. That is why they sucked, not because THEY PURPOSELY tanked.
