[Labinot41]

Uh oh. They must have won. But I swore everybody in here said we were WAY better than they were. Let me go check in that predictions thread real quick......standby.

Why do you say "we" ?

Dion Waiters ODed on gummies. I didn't even know that was possible.

Damn the Lakers are 7-1? I thought they had a few more losses. Man this season can’t get any worse

I think it's because they are beating "bad" teams I read on here.

I saw this and was thinking man that guy has some all-star level ability and like a body made out of peanut brittle...

Diabetic?

Charlotte, Chicago and Memphis make up 3 of their wins. 1-3 on the road Utah makes up another and Dallas lost mostly due to their youth.

So, trolling aside, let's wait before we anoint the Lakers anything more than having a good start.

Well we can’t even beat bad teams let alone G league teams

 

[PDXFonz]

Oh man Dion Waiters.....

LOOOOOOOOOL

I wish WE could beat bad teams.

So does everyone else here. Not sure what that has to do with anything though.

It turns out a teammate gave him a THC gummy and it triggered a panic attack.

Panic attacks are no joke.

Panic attacks are no joke.

You don't have to convince me. That's why I don't smoke the marijuana. Anxiety Disorders are a bitch.

Nick Nurse is a legitimately high level coach and wasn't a one-hit wonder. It was so easy for the Raptors to coast this year after winning the title and losing Kawhi Leonard. But the Raptors are 7-2 and just went in to Staples and beat the Lakers without Kyle Lowry and Serge Ibaka.

For the Stotts-apologists who always say, "who are you going to replace him with?" This is someone you could have replaced him with. You do a comprehensive search and find the next coach.

 

[illmatic99]

seriously, who do we replace here? PHX the obvious choice, but it already feels like we got ourselves into a massive hole just 10 games in

Phx probably then spurs. But yea we might be in that dreaded no man’s land area between 8-10th seed.. smh

It’s really early. Things happen. Teams go on losing streaks. We’re technically only two games out.

Baby Sabonis breaking pacer records. Looks like they got a star for the cheap good for them

For the cheap? They gave him $20 million a year.

It coulda been max

It turns out a teammate gave him a THC gummy and it triggered a panic attack.

Two things about this:

1) Good for Waiters for not snitching but how did they know it was a teammate?

2) This story would become the best story ever if the teammate that gave it to him was Meyers.

Meyers would have given him a Level brand Nutrition bar.

Future Blazer Blake Griffin makes his return tonight.

 

[Cugel]

any over/under for Blake's next injury? Guy is a monster but jeez he is cursed with injuries. I say he's down by December since he probably is not at 100%
