Kobe like "Hey Mike you got 6 rings, but I got 5 and a OSCAR!!!"

Don't challenge Jordan. He's so competitive he'll go to film school and direct a masterpiece just to show Kobe up.

LA put up a billboard trying to recruit LBJ saying g LAbron. A 76ers fan put up a billboard saying #PHILLYWANTSLEBRON Seems likely we will see a The Decision Pt 2. Lakers have made cap space for two stars to come in and will pay luxury tax. I think with LA though you associate it with Jerry West, Kareem, Magic, Pats Showtime Lakers, Shaq and Kobe. But maybe the best chance to chase more rings. He's up to 3 now. Kobe has 5, MJ 6 so does he need more to get into the GOAT discussion?. Highly unlikely he will stay a Cav I think since his demands were shutdown and they traded his buddy D-Wade. Bron back to Miami? I doubt it. I like the idea of him as a Spur working under Pop with Kawhi.

That's a lot of dough for floor seats.

Well Kobe, Mike, Bird et al didn't win a ring in NZ, so there's that I guess

KD is channeling his inner Dennis Rodman going off on referees. And that ref had so much joy doing the ejection signal. :olol:

They should demand he sleeps 19 hours a day so he can try to have a 100 point game.

I wouldn't bet against them. I think the "Bad Boys" era Pistons who won back to back Championships in 89 & 90 were just as tough or more so.

Embiid does not have a concussion but won't play in game 2.

I love how he skipped the usual clear plastic protector and went straight to the superhero mask.

Kawhi very likely on his way out of San Antonio

Definitely not a smart move on Pop's management of the situation keeping him away from the team. Its rumored the Celtics will be his likely destination but the Lakers are interested too. However the Spurs don't want to trade him to a Western conference team.
