Still another reason that sealing The Bag in Texas is warranted.
I---smelll---skunk.
His meaningful career ended at 32, courtesy of Dirk's legendary skunking of the Lakers.After 3 straight finals and leading his country to a gold medal he was simply tired....he's a mighty man but not quite Supermanhe needed a break....

Skunking happened in 2011. It was never the same for the Lakers after that.
That's a team skunker. This is an individual skunker. And I smelled it first.
Me
Team skunker>Individual skunker. Play by the rules, Cub.
You can't even take it. You have to dredge my to cover your .
lmskunksmellin'ao!!!
& I'm tellin' ya right now:::if you ring I'm lodgin' an asterisk to cover your 2nd 5th. You ain't gettin' an unen bered (6) even with the attendant The Bag.
Let us proceed...
*5>5, therefore, Duncan>Kobe.
Hey re ..I will give you another crack at it... Just when I thought you couldn't get any lamer...you go off and top yourself yet again...
Nuh uh, Kobe has been carrying The Bag since 48 and 48.5.
Don't start in with the 48. That always causes me to go to the RR. Is that what you want, bum?
Kobe's been held scoreless, what, 15 times though? And he's supposed to be the ATG scorer.Just goes to show this dude never had been nor never will be on Kobe's level as a compe or or player....sure his teams may have been better and more consistent in terms of TEAM play but Tim Duncan the player is half the player Kobe was and in most circles even less of a man
No, it would be like this:::
[[[the tired old bag Duncan: *6
Kobe: 5
*denotes 2nd 5th prior to 6, thank you.]]]
Fair enough, Cub
Is it not 48.5 that pisses you off? That's the one that would really send me through the roof if I was a fake Laker fan who rooted for the Suns.
I never defend my fandom.
It's my religion.
P.S., I still smell skunker!!!
You truly are a s of your old self, Dale.
DMC thinks I'm the cat's pjs.
Then you should have lodged that before last nite. Too late, s.
I-smell-skunk!!!
Then tell Katie to change your diaper son, smell like Kobe's last four years.
It's not merely the score.
Yes, the Los Angeles Lakers losing 142-94 is the biggest margin of defeat this once-great franchise has ever seen. The previous franchise worst was a 46-point loss to the Portland Trail Blazers back in 1995. But they didn't share a city with the Blazers. They didn't share a building. They didn't spend decades making the other team feel like an unwanted houseguest in Los Angeles.
The Lakers didn't merely lose by 48 points Thursday night; they lost by 48 points to the Los Angeles Clippers. It's no secret the Clippers are the better team. That has been well-established for the second successive season. It's the fact that the Lakers simply can't do anything about it, and there isn't an excuse for what's going on out there other than the team sucks. It's the only explanation offered up.
As great as he has been in his career, a healthy Kobe Bryant wouldn't change the fortunes of this Lakers team. They've hit rock bottom and are the worst incarnation of this franchise we've ever seen. They would have to go 9-12 the rest of the season in order to tie the worst record in Lakers history since they moved to Los Angeles. When you're rolling out Wesley Johnson, Ryan Kelly, Kendall Marshall, Kent Bazemore, MarShon Brooks, and Robert Sacrein your rotation, you have no hope of going 9-12 for any stretch of the season.
A 48-point loss on national television to the Clippers, no matter what season it is, isn't supposed to happen to Laker Nation. Nobody in the building is coming to see you; they're coming to see Blake Griffin and Chris Paul -- the new kings of Los Angeles basketball -- put on a show. It was the Clippers that were able to figure out how to bring a star to the organization and better themselves. They didn't lose that star in free agency next year. They went out and got the coach they needed to take the next step.
The Clippers essentially became the Lakers for at least a two-year stretch, while the Lakers hope nobody pays attention to the man behind the curtain. In the most important off-season the Lakers have had since they convinced Shaquille O'Neal to move to LA, the Lakers' brass didn't have the prestige to keep their superstar free agent. Jim Buss couldn't be his father and Mitch Kupchak wasn't exactly Jerry West out there.
The Lakers failed and in turn set themselves up for an embarrassing year of being in basketball purgatory. The only hope for the Lakers is that they're bad enough and lucky enough to win the lottery, cashing in on a loaded draft class and hoping the guy they get is the best one for a decade or more. They have to hope Bryant can return to form and be one of the biggest difference-makers in the NBA at the age of 36. They have to hope they magically put together a compe ive enough roster to lure a big name free agent or two in the next couple of off-seasons, after failing in front of the world to retain Dwight Howard.
This is the Lakers' current existence. They've had a Freaky Friday situation with the Clippers. They're the laughing stock now. They're the team that has to hope for the best. This isn't what the Lakers are supposed to be. They're supposed to impose their will on the NBA, not pray things work out.
This was more than a franchise record defeat Thursday night. It was more than score. It was a wakeup call that the nightmare is just beginning.
^ I still smell skunk, s.
Oh I've lodged plenty, made you look the fool you are, including the fact that your Kobe played his last meaningful game at the ripe young age of 33.
But nonetheless:
Kirby:::15
Duncan:::1
