Notice BREAKING NEWS!!! LeBron turns to the darkside, signs with Lakers

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

It's not. NBA is a shit league.

It’s like we are bordering on European soccer leagues where if your names aren’t Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, or PSG... go fuck yourself

The NBA has pretty much always been like that.

[illmatic99]

No there's no collusion at all with another Rich Paul client

 

[andalusian]

Well, the Raptors should just keep their team together now and they can make the Finals since they don't have to get through LeBron to get there.

Like they are going through the Celtics.

 

[EGame]

Can I ask why anyone is reacting the way they are? Some media people have been saying this was going to happen for a year now.

Because it gets boring seeing the same story year after year? Superstars only go to big markets and in todays NBA form superteams. You know Lebron Wouldn't be going there if he didn't talk to Cousins and or Kawhi. The Spurs can restrain him from going to the Lakers this year if they want but next year, you better believe he is joining them.

And that's part of the reason. The whole thing feels like a farce. There are 25 NBA teams that should all change their names to the Washington Generals.

True, if you aren’t from California, Texas, or Florida... fuck you and the $120 jersey you paid for

 

[Labinot41]

Sources: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope agreed to a one-year, $12M deal with the Lakers.

 

[Orion Bailey]

I do believe we should instigate a suicide watch around here for some forum members who are going to lose it completely.

 

[Orion Bailey]

At least the dominos can start falling

That doesn't make any sense. It's the same year after year so you are pissed that it was the same this year? That's on you if you thought this year would be any different.

 

[calvin natt]

Blow. It. Up.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Hey now @Strenuus can finally start to watch and enjoy football, no need to watch the nba anymore!

 

[Orion Bailey]

Oh yeah. And sellout.

I blame this 100% on @HCP for when he created the lbj laker moniker.

 

[EGame]

I guess being a diehard Blazer fan has prompted me to always follow the NBA and it sucks that we can never get anyone along with the other small market teams. But oh well, life goes on and new hobbies can be formed away from a bad sport.

Because the Lakers are going to be relevant again

 

[James lamphear]

Well just because LeBron went to the Lakers I still put them below Golden State and Houston right now. I still don't think the Spurs will trade Leonard to the Lakers this year.

 

[oldfisherman]

Guess our Blazers will only be playing for the NW division title. For a long time.

 

[calvin natt]

Can Lakers flip Lebron for Kawhi now

 

[Chris Craig]

At least the dominos can start falling

True.

 

[EGame]

Guess our Blazers will only be playing for the NW division title. For a long time.

Summerleague championship is always an option, too.

 

[Chris Craig]

Guess our Blazers will only be playing for the NW division title. For a long time.

If that

 

[hoopsjock]

I know, FUCK THE LAKERS, but:

This isn't anywhere near the same thing as Durant going to GS and joining a 73 win team or if LeBron signed with GS too. The Lakers have been crap for 5 years. He's also 33 years old with a ton of basketball mileage. Kawhi and Cousins are both hurt right now and may never be the same. I'm not really worried about the Lakers yet.

As of 5:51PM PST on July 1st, 2018... the Los Angeles Lakers are better than the Portland Trail Blazers....

Let it sink in gentlemen... let it sink in....

Show some respect, that should say the Blazers will be defending their NW Division Title, ha ha.

 

[riverman]

Admit it...as Blazer fans we needed another Kobe to hate...now we have one on the Lakers

 

[e_blazer]

No wonder the league is so great with this guy heading up the rodeo:

We'll see, as of now they have no good bigs and a PG who can't shoot and needs the ball in hands to be effective but they just signed a ball dominant player.
