  1. @kfigg1 @DavidjBrickley Roundtable on this next week? YES. ... Save it!
  2. @kfigg1 @DavidjBrickley Wait, hold on... So, in '06, during Kobe's 'super-prime', you would have considered shipping him out?
  3. Why are we in for a #Spurs, #Celtics Finals? Because the B-Ball gods didn't forget about that whole lockout thing. Take that, Stern. #Karma
  4. I dont care how high the 'potential ceilng' is for Bynum, he's not the guy you want in the trenches. I'd take less talent for some heart.
  5. Only a guest appearance from Robert Pattinson could make the Lakers transition D more agonizing to watch.
  6. @robbthebarber Was @ the Crown Club last night (sister has season tickets), but left in the 7th to watch the Lakers. New Kaufman is nice.
  7. The sheer stupidity behind people blaming Blake for missing the 3 or MWP for making a bad inbounds pass is just...
  8. I'm shocked HOW the Lakers lost G2, but not shocked that it happened. We knew OKC was better. We knew OKC should win the series. We did...
  9. The painful and unfortunate reality is that on a night OKC laid an egg at home, the Lakers still couldn't beat them...
  10. Complete 90 second meltdown by the #Lakers. With a 7 point lead late, not only did they fail to score, they failed to get a decent shot off.
  11. I'd love to travel back to '99 and tell myself that in '12, I'll get a Clippers playoff tickets text, only for him to ask me what a text is.
  12. @mzupon29 Lol, I'll be surprised if the Lakers are able to get more than a game in this series. It's OKC's time.
  13. This week's Social Digest is now available! fburls.com/70-nZplAGbd
  14. @TheNoLookPass Which makes sense, since they've both been dead for a couple weeks now.
  15. When we look back on tonight's G1, I will remember the one positive: This graphic from @KamPashai. twitter.com/LakerNation/st…
  16. OKC taking the #Lakers behind the barn... literally, being that there are actually barns in Oak City.
  17. True story: I walk into a bar in KC (2x/ in a row now) & they 'cant turn off the Royals to show the Lakers'... Why. Do. I. Come. Back. Here.
  18. Should OKC win this series? Sure. But the #Lakers will have a great chance to steal G1 tonight. If they can do it, doubt comes knocking...
  19. Both WC series' have G3 & G4 back-to-back. On the other side, Miami doesn't get just one day off between the same games, they get TWO. #BS
  20. Stomach punch series for Memphis fans. From the G1 meltdown, to being down 3-1, to a huge road win in G6, to a no-show egg in G7. Crazy.
