The poors can't afford to live in LA. Rents and housing prices are through the roof these days.

Dear god, make price appreciation stop.

More than that.

1. People are assholes here. There's no getting around that. People are just fucking assholes in this city.

2. LA is shit to raise a family. Kind of tied to point #1. People go to LA to fuck around until they get tied down with a wifey. Once they settle down, they move to Orange County (boring), the Valley (gross) or Oregon (better).

3. The schools are fucked.

LA isn't actually that expensive. Sure the rents/housing are expensive but so are the salaries. I got to say, the women going around today looked on fucking point today in Sunny Santa Monica.

If you're single, rich and an asshole, LA is the place to be.

Yes tiny and useless Damian Lillard.

What has he ever accomplished? MVP? Championships? Led his team to the Finals?

He's a POS at defense, watching the lad play defense nearly makes my eyes bleed. He's streaky at best at offense, waits for 4th quarters to really turn his game on when it's to late sometimes.

I know the Lakers suck right now. I'm not a delusional fan, and all Jeanie Buss is good for is blow, we likely will have a dark age for another 3 years but it joys my heart to see you right there with us at the bottom.

But at the end of the day, we turn the TV off and go for a hike on a 72 degree day at Toponga or go to the beach, have fun at the bars in Santa Monica.

When you turn off the TV you don't have much, other than food trucks and third rate cheap strip clubs and dive bars. LMA and these backwater/flawed Blazers is all you folks in PDX really have going for you in terms of entertainment.

LMA leaves, you're irrelevant again. You have no other sports to be relevant in again.

It was wise of you to ignore my previous PWNage of you. But, it's fun so I'll do it some more...

Firstly, I'm glad to know you understand that your management sucks and that your team will likely suck for another 3 years (Actually, I wouldn't be so sure about that, you're 2 major pieces away, 1 could come in FA and another in next year's draft - possible, but not probable).

You say that we are irrelevant, and to many WE ARE IRRELEVANT. However, I assume that you are not trolling board of the other 28 teams, so WE MATTER TO YOU. You are being self-contradictory. Unfortunately, such behavior is not uncommon to trolls.

That brewery is Joe Freeman's favorite, he's close friends with the owners. Always mentioning it on twitter. He just found a way to give his friends free publicity. It's nothing but transparent bullshit.

Yes he can. We were going to trade Afflalo if he opted in with us.

See CBA FAQ #101
http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm

Note that players with ending contracts (including players whose contracts might end due to an option or ETO) cannot be traded after the trade deadline (players whose contracts are not ending can be traded after the last day of the team's season and before July 1 -- see question numbers100 and 103).

Maybe I'm misreading this.
 
Jeezus. I'm slammed at work, trying to get caught up, after being too caught up in the LaMarcus drama, so I, understandably I think, come to this thread to find out WTF is going on with LaMarcus, but now I'm wondering WTF is going on with this thread?

BTW: Anyone know WTF is going on with LaMarcus?

Hibbert just opted-in a few days ago and INDY is trying to trade him. Remember the 3 team proposed trade (3-team because GS doesn't want Hibbert but INDY does want Lee)? Why would any team try to trade for him (or why would INDY try to trade him out) if it was against rules? The answer is they wouldn't.

He canceled his Knicks meeting, and decided to meet with the Lakers again to give them a chance to actually talk basketball with him. He's also meeting with Pat Riley tonight for dinner. Portland still can offer one more year and $30 million more than any other team.

Yes they cannot until they pick up their option because they could opt out

Wow, really? Didn't expect that.

Thanks.

So is he waiting to meet with Portland, or are we even on the guest list?

:cheers:

Source familiar w/ LaMarcus Aldridge's situation says currently Spurs & Suns are front-runners. Dallas 3rd. Lakers out. Heat not happening.
 
Neil met with Lamarcus after the Lakers did and told him....we want them to think they can sign you for a little longer, can you ask for another meeting and not tell Kobe to fuck off just yet?

You're missing the "after the trade deadline" part. That specifically refers to the period of time between when a team's season ends and the league year ends.
 
Or Lamarcus thought the Laker meeting was so much fun he'd just have to do it once more...sort of like saying Pull my finger son!

You should contact your lawyer and the Trail Blazers and complain about the message board. Worked for Mixum.

Btw, what are the hourly rates for lawyers in Texas?


(yes I know he's banned, I'm just late to the party)
 
LaMarcus is giving Los Angeles one more chance to top his guest appearances on Portlandia?

Whatever they offer him, I hope his next girl friend is a little friendlier on the eyes than Penny Marshall. For all our sakes.

It's funny; they apparently really focused on the Hollywood stuff in the first meeting and he was unimpressed. So they're trying again with a basketball-focused meeting, which should be even more unimpressive.
