NBA 2012 Off-Season Thread

[OssMan]

Wizards practice at my school, gonna go to their training camp tomorrow after class

Hate the nba though

[SammyG]

Walk in there and do the John Wall Dougie and walk out

[SammyG]

Steve Nash is amazing.

[MoFo]

Lost to da Bucks.

Jesus christ.

[SammyG]

It's preseason. None of this matters.

[SammyG]

Lakers new court is nnnnoiiicceeee

[SammyG]

lol @ all this LeBron to Lakers talks. DO NOT WANT.

[owenbrown]

admit it, SammyG, you want Lebron so YOUR Lakers can say they wanna win 2379417894675249847139649234 more titles.

[SammyG]

Nope. Do not want him at all. I respect Bron more than I did last year, but can not envision him in a Laker jersey. Dwight debuts on Sunday, so I'm pretty excited about that.

[alvarado52]

I'd rather have Kyrie Erving

[SammyG]

Yup, same here.

[Kris P Lettus]

Hornets will win the West..

[Crimson]

Why wouldn't you want Lebron? In 2-3 years you won't be saying that when Kobe/Nash/Gasol aren't there.

[SammyG]

Because of my personal hatred towards him.

[DaveWadding]

I started up a Fantasy NBA league (totally forgot about it this year, since no one usually cares enough). Draft is next Saturday? anyone want to play?

League ID is 89805

password is ballin

[alvarado52]

D12 debuts in about 10 minutes.

[alvarado52]

So far they look good.

[SammyG]

My God... watching this is incredible. So much talent on the floor. that first Dwight alley oop, I think I had an out of body experience BAH GAWD KING

[Supreme Olajuwon]

there's no way we're not winning the championship this year, bros

[SammyG]

You're not a Lakers fan. Fuck off.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Dwight looks ridiculous in those gold sleeves tho

nigga needs some purple on those guns

[Supreme Olajuwon]

[MoFo]

No U can have Alonzo Gee or some shit leave our best players

[Supreme Olajuwon]

[DaveWadding]

So the Kings beat the Lakers

then the Suns beat the Kings.

That means the Suns are better than the Lakers. Call off the NBA season, we're done here.

[/Droford logic]

[DaveWadding]

Dwight looks ridiculous in those gold sleeves tho

nigga needs some purple on those guns

And it's not purple. it's "Forum Blue"

[SammyG]

He's not a Lakers fan, don't expect him to know what that means.

[RP]

Paul George is going to blow up like the World Trade

[Supreme Olajuwon]

lol that's pretty impressive

[Supreme Olajuwon]

not as impressive as Dwight Howard holding up the Larry O'Brien Trophy at the end of this season, but still quite impressive

[Supreme Olajuwon]

[RP]

I knew Roy was working on his footwork. I didnt know that was what he had in mind.

[owenbrown]

where's RP's WNBA champion Indiana Fever thread at?

[RP]

Gerald Green might turn into one of the greatest FA pickups ever. This guy looks like he should be starting to be honest. He's freaking explosive and his offensive game looks so much better.

[RP]

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5YcqFu8wHyw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

How did this guy get to Indiana? Serious question.

[owenbrown]

No offense, RP, but what does it say about the Pacers that their WNBA counterpart, if you will, has won a championship before they have?

[owenbrown]

talking about an NBA title not the 3 ABA titles they won beforehand.

[RP]

No offense, RP, but what does it say about the Pacers that their WNBA counterpart, if you will, has won a championship before they have?

I'll dropkick your glasses right off your face and probably on the floor!

[SammyG]

Honestly Gerald Green is terrible. Probably won't even make your final roster.

[Droford]

Droford bold NBA pick slightly influenced by listening to clipper homer Ben maller on the radio 10 hours a week: clippers will finish better record than the Lakers.

[SammyG]

lol listening to the Clippers announcers today on NBA TV was BRUTAL. Dudes are retarded. Anyway, 0-7 woooooooo

[RP]

Honestly Gerald Green is terrible. Probably won't even make your final roster.

This will be quoted a few times this year. Especially when he's collecting the Sixth Man of The Year Award.

[Evil Vito]

David Stern is retiring effective February 1, 2014.

[Emperor Smeat]

Probably going to make sure he gets his current dream Kobe vs Lebron Finals before he leaves.

His latest new idea was to drop the Center position from All-Star ballots mainly because he wants more big names in the All-Star game without having to waste spots on centers since Dwight is the only big name center left.

[Crimson]

Not a bad idea probably. 2014 couldn't come too soon, he's been a great commish but has overstayed.

[SammyG]

I wonder if we get CP3 back! And, no, RP, you won't like him. He has one huge dunk then 10 terrible possessions. You'll see.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

dont worry about the loss Sammy

we're gonna be fine

i know my boys will come through

[SammyG]

You are trying wayyyy too hard. It's comical, though, keep it up.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

what do you mean

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I feel like there's some tension here between us Laker fans and I dont like it one bit

I think we should all take roles as members of the Lakers

I'll be Dwight Howard for obvious reasons

Juan is Kobe cause he's the star

alvarado is Steve Nash cause he brings us all together

and Sammy you can be Ron Artest because of your fiery Italian temper

[DaveWadding]

Metta World Peace*

[Supreme Olajuwon]

His momma call him Ron, Imma call him Ron.

[screech]

His momma call him Ron, Imma call him Ron.

This post is so much funnier with your current avatar.

[alvarado52]

Lol

[Kris P Lettus]

No team has made the postseason after not winning a game in the preseason..

Take that, Lakers!!
