Gary Payton goes to Lakers (1 Viewer)

[thecatch]

the catch...sorry about my rambling/babbling...I'm at work so I lose focus at times...being interrupted (yeah I know the nerve) My point on the Olympics and Lakers, both teams are stacked yet I bet the Laker haters from here weren't too sad the US of A had all of those stars on those teams. Seems to me people are just jealous the Lakers are stacked. As for the 65 or so wins, I can see if the team gets on a run for about 15-16 games in a row early on, they might get focused enough to re-obtain their record of consecutive wins that the Bulls team took away. Heck I'll be happy with 62 wins

If they rip off 15-16 in a row early, that will be even more reason for them to be complacent (see the year before last, where they started like 16-1 and lost the pac division).Playing for USA basketball is a patriotic thing, everyone is rooting for that team. The Lakers aren't a national thing. I don't see how you even begin to draw a comparison. Volunteering a summer to represent your country vs. piling on with shaq and trying to ride him to a ring.... Doesn't make any sense.

I love this stuff. Good bump.

The only problem is the confusion that old bumps can cause. I was just about to post "Wasn't he just there?"

Ferris, enjoy another 1st round exit for your Pretenderwolves next year.

For some reason I don't think Cassell and resigning Rasha will put them over the top.

Gosh, so many choices here, and we're just in the summer league.Should I go with the standard, "Please show me where I said the Wolves were my Wolves, and that they would ever get out of the first round?" Naah. We've already proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that tommyGunZ resorts to making stuff up when the facts aren't there.

How about, "Read To Acheive. That response did absolutely nothing to respond to my statement. "? Naah. Dunno if the NBA is using that slogan again next season, and we all know tommyGunZ just picks a new fight when he can't win the one he's in.

Perhaps "How did the NBA team in your city do?" Naaah. That would get me one step closer to knowing where tommyGunZ lives, and I'm already as familiar with him as I want to be for a lifetime.

Or maybe the old reliable "How did Clinton Portis/Miami Hurricanes/Kobe4MVP/Clifford Etienne/Lakers4peat turn out"? Naah. We'd have to move the message board to a new server to support the complete list of missed predictions, guarantees, prognositications, and plain old ignorant and idiotic things you've said on this board and Old Yeller back in the day.

I think I'll go with a new one: "If Kobe opts out of his contract and sings with a new team next season, the one positive Laker fans will get out of the deal is the comfort that you will follow your obsessive fandom of Kobe to his new team and stop pretending to be a Laker fan, raising the average credibility of Laker fans everywhere significantly."

Yeah, that's it.
