"You are asking me if LeBron is going to New York?, I’m trying to tell you in a polite way, I don’t give a shit"

by kb06 on Jul 30, 2010 8:20 AM PDT reply actions  

Shit.

Is he the guy who did LeBron’s mom?

I’m not trying to stir up any controversy. It’s just what I heard. Haven’t been keeping up lately. If I’m wrong just tell me. If I’m right, Jesus Christ.

You are correct

Well, it didn't really happen

Although that fact can be safely overlooked for purposes of hilarity.

proof?

i still don’t know whether it was true or not

by lakers are trouble on Jul 30, 2010 10:05 AM PDT up reply actions  

What proof?

There isn’t any. I assure you if this actually happened a bazillion news organizations would have picked up on it.

Oh but LeBron shuts them up, just check Nike and ESPN.

Though I agree that it’s pretty obvious Delonte didn’t.

by shoang1993 on Jul 30, 2010 10:15 AM PDT up reply actions  

Well, more mainstream organizations would have covered it

I assure you the New York Times would have given a giant “Fuck You” to any attempts at intimidation.

I wasn’t being serious when pointing out that LeBron likes to shut up media outlets. I just can’t give up the chance to take a shot at him.

by shoang1993 on Jul 30, 2010 10:50 AM PDT up reply actions  

Fair enough

Delonte?!

nooo thanks. i’d rather have shannon’s WAKI and sasha’s touch fouls 40+ feet from the basket than delonte…

3peat.

by LAL32 on Jul 30, 2010 8:40 AM PDT up reply actions  

really?

Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?

by shaqfor3 on Jul 30, 2010 11:21 AM PDT up reply actions  

just my opinion

the guy’s a total head case, plus i don’t think he’d fit well here. if we can get him for cheap, maybe… but i’d stick with shannon or sasha.

3peat.

by LAL32 on Jul 30, 2010 11:31 AM PDT up reply actions  

he's a much better shooter from inside/ outside the arc than shannon

and a better defender too. why not?

Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?

by shaqfor3 on Jul 30, 2010 11:46 AM PDT up reply actions  

never mind

they are trying to move Sasha to get him. Still he sounds like an improvement to me. Plus we get rid of Sasha’s contract too.

by shaqfor3 on Jul 30, 2010 11:48 AM PDT up reply actions  

pretty sure we were gonna waive his contract

i dont think we were gonna give up a first rounder just to save a few hundred thousand for this year and take on the burden of a new player.

by heinzketchup on Jul 30, 2010 3:24 PM PDT up reply actions  

editing my statement after i actually read the article.

writer obviously does not know anything about basketball….
“This move would certainly give the Lakers a way to match up with the Miami Heat and stop LeBron in the case that the two teams do actually end up meeting in the Finals next season.” I don’t know where to even begin with that statement.

by heinzketchup on Jul 30, 2010 3:29 PM PDT up reply actions  

read the rest

it’s a joke on the whole lebron’s mom thing..

FUCK DELONTE WEST

It's Kobe's world, but Lebron's just living in it. -- Czheck

by smart_guy on Jul 30, 2010 8:46 AM PDT up reply actions  

i wouldn't be opposed to delonte west for cheap

this guy is talented, despite his off-court issues. if phil can make rodman and artest useful, he’ll have no issues with delonte.

by theshmoes on Jul 30, 2010 9:13 AM PDT up reply actions  

Yeah, he's Brown with less hops, a better shot, and infinitely better defense

I’m all for it at the minimum.

by Ben R on Jul 30, 2010 9:38 AM PDT up reply actions  

So we can throw Kobe, Artest, Barnes, and Lebron’s dad at Lebron when the Lakers play the Heat? That’s just fucking brutal.

by shoang1993 on Jul 30, 2010 8:26 AM PDT reply actions  

me do not understand

Supposed to be a reply to your reply to my reply to kb06 but I failed the reply and thus; reply fail.

not that

I simply don’t understand what you mean in your comment.

by smart_guy on Jul 30, 2010 8:33 AM PDT up reply actions  

Uhmmm… when the Lakers play the Heat, we have the advantage of being able to have Kobe or Artest or Barnes or Lebron’s step-dad to defend him?

by shoang1993 on Jul 30, 2010 8:34 AM PDT reply actions  

Jesus Christ reply fail.

That Artest interviewing Artest is a must see/read.

hilarious stuff.

"That means no more coming into camp fat and out of shape, when your team is relying on your leadership on and off the court. It also means no more blaming others for our team's failure, or blaming staff members for not overdramatizing your injuries so that you avoid blame for your lack of conditioning. " Kobe on Shaq being a leader

by Jelly Bean on Jul 30, 2010 9:20 AM PDT reply actions  

lol..that was hilarious.

I laughed through out most of the stuff he said.

Hope they collaborate LOL

I wouldnt be surprised if they did collaborate.
