Things setting up nicely for the lakers

[Goat Milk]

Agreed Lebron is done after this year, need to kick him to the curb and sign a young stud to play with AD. Build for the future. Lebron is breaking down this year and showing his age now.

Davis isn't even a top 10 player. Lebron shits on him.

[johnnyvegas13]

We finally get to see playoffs Lebron in dubs gm

i am guessing he is fine

[Goat Milk]

Compazzo is the spanish player of the decade. Lmfao. Shows how bad these international leagues are.

Throw Lillard in that spanish league and they'll build statues for him.

[lakerboy]

Goat like I told you the nuggets were gonna be favorites over portland.

Portland is a small dog+115.

Yeah I knew they'd be favorites as well but told you it won't matter. Portland in 5/6 imo. I guess unless you think Campazzo and Monte Morris are gonna lock up Lillard and Mccollum lol.

Lillard oh right forgot about him. Mr clutch. The guy who will NEVER play in an NBA finals.

[Ryermkd]

Playin line down to 6.5

lakers will win but line is sharp

Your first LAN party? Have some Dad's old fashioned chai, I hear it helps...

[Goat Milk]

Lillard oh right forgot about him. Mr clutch. The guy who will NEVER play in an NBA finals.

You said 10 years ago on this site that Lebron would never win a ring. Here we are, 4 rings later. Lillard just needs one true superstar with him. I say he gets 1-2 before he retires. I think he's gonna go down as one of the top 5 pgs of all time with Curry Magic and Isiah and Stockton/Paul.

5 days of rest too now for portland. Last time they played in the bubble it was just one game after another. And they also didn't have Powell and Covington who are both elite defenders. Don't even know if they had Nurkic or if he was 100%. This is a different squad, different energy about them. Who you gonna give the ball to in crunch time on the perimeter for Denver? michael porter jr.? Lol. This team has no weapons at all. GL with ur denver bet. Lillard was in the WCF too before, he's much more battle tested than Jokic and Denver over teh course of his career. Has ended 2 series on buzzer beaters. No one in the modern nba has ever done that.

Where did I say I took Denver?

[thomorino]

Where do you get these ideas from? Any player coming from Europe needs a letter of clearance before leaving to the NBA. It's the law! Again, terrible scouting report, and getting his name wrong, keep going.

There's already been several cases of players trying to leave a team and not getting a letter of clearance from FIBA. This isn't some rec game where you get to go somewhere new and be anonymous. It would be total chaos if players could jump from one league to another.

Where's the comeback for that one? You can apologize if you want to, it' OK.

He's busy googling FIBA letter of clearance, he'll be back to apologise shortly I think. Stay tuned.

You are dumb and ignorant.

Compassion shoots over 36 percent from 3 he is a good shooter, and the reason he hasn’t played in the us before is because of his lack of size and athleticism.

European and US courts will not force anyone to work for someone else, anyone can break a contract as long as they are willing to pay potential fees.

You are a dumb shit.

[rm18]

He only shoots good looks he has a below league average % at above average looks.

[asiagambler]

I think there is much more parity this year in the West

1-7 all good teams and have legitimate chances to win. Home court less pronounced with limited fans

Utah have some advantages since they will face clearly inferior team in first round

Dallas and Denver have no chance to win anything. The west is deep though.

Yeah I was going to mention Denver chances sunk because of injuries. Dallas I'm a bit more bullish on

[shadymcgrady]

If the Lakers win again I wonder if all of staples center will file another petition to have kuzma removed from the ring ceremony and roster like last yr

[jjgold]

What are odds Lakers not to win??

[JIBBBY]

What are odds Lakers not to win??

Load up. Can't just plug in players after being out so long and expect all things to auto click. Lebron out of shape probably. Lineup and bench players will now be playing out of roll and have limited minutes. Takes time to gel as a team especially on defense.

I will be fading the Lakers at some point. They may get by the Warriors but beyond that IDK???

[wikkidinsane]

is Lebron that good you all handing him the title already?

Utah is their biggest challenge in the west

The east have legit contenders. This will be Lebrons hardest title. Clippers ducking Lakers lol.

You are a dumb shit.

Do you even know what FIBA is or what they stand for? They regulate all this shit and the NBA adheres to it. Can't just dump a team to go play for another team that is also under teh FIBA hat. Like leaving a mafia family to go work for their cousins, as if they wouldn't find out.

And Campazzo is not lacking athleticism. A high-level athlete with a passing wizardy and a rare competitive fire <---that should have been your scouting report if you had a clue!

[IBetYou]

The rivalry between Luka Doncic and Marcus Morris Sr. was a product of the series between the two teams in the 2020 postseason. Morris, assigned to contain the Slovenian sensation, stepped on his injured left ankle in Game 5 and was ejected for a flagrant foul on Doncic in the series-ending Game 6. His side advanced to the next round.

“He’s a hell of a player, hell of a defender,” said Doncic previewing the playoff reunion, per Callie Caplan of Dallas Morning News, “Trash talk is always there, and if it’s not, you’re not really competing.

It’s going to be great.”According to two-time NBA All-Star, Morris apologized to him earlier in the 2020-21 Regular Season for stepping on his injured ankle.

[IBetYou]

Doncic such a smart player, especially for his age. He understands you have to respect your opponent in sports. Don't have to like 'em but gotta respect 'em. Big upset coming in that series.

[IBetYou]

They will be an underdog. Watch and see

Good call! Marginal dogs, but surprising anyway.

[Goat Milk]

So take Dallas to win the series. Leonard and George gonna cause fits for Doncic. He is not ready. He's a kid. Nothing close to what Kobe was when Kobe was 21.

[IBetYou]

I guess you just have to look at the outright market to see which team will be favoured. So Nuggets marginal favs but likely just the bookie balancing their books.

I’ll talk very slowly so a dumb shit like you can follow. Final only has reach on damages, you can break a contract whenever you want, it just means you have to pay a penalty. The courts won’t force anyone to work.

You still here? It's not about forcing someone to work. If you want to leave a Euro team and sign with an NBA team you need clearance. There is strict protocol to follow and it goes both ways.

[IBetYou]

I must have mental issues arguing with someone that calls Campazzo compasssion and FIBA finals.

'Bron takes another one down

You didn’t sound any slower than you usually do ?

Dumb shits.

Fiba has no authority in the United States and neither do European courts. Again, anyone in Europe can break a contract, their are damages to pay, but the courts won’t force you to work. Stop talking.

Compazzo is undersized, that’s why he hasn’t played in the nba before, it has nothing to do with his contract.
