unabashed Laker Hater
Laker fans are by far the worst. They praised Bynum when he was here, when he got traded "oh he sucks". When they got Dwight (without realizing the man came off back surgery) "Oh we're going 73-9, Dwight's the best big around. Now my facebook feed is clustered with laker fans saying "he sucked anyways" etc. etc.
Team with 16 championships have a big haters club. Its allways the same story,winners are winners,loosers are loosers. With or without Dwight, Lakers are the best NBA team,with Celtics ofc. So you can hate,in couple of years they will be a camps,its a usual thing for them and Celtics to win couple of championships in every decade ;)
The Lakers still finished ranked better in the four team trade than the 76ers. The Sixers got Bynum who didn't play a game and Jason Richardson for a young double double center in Nikolai Vucevic and another young prospect Maurice Harkless. The Lakers traded Bynum and got Dwight Howard wwho they at least had playing nearly the entire season. The Lakers were done with Bynum and would've likely let him walk if they couldn't trade him for a below average year for Dwight which is still better than most centers have in a good year.
The Lakers are going to effing terrible this year.
The excuses the pro-Lakers people are making are so laughable.
"They basically have the same team, minus Dwight"
Exactly. This was a mediocre at best team with Dwight.
"Kobe will return"
Yes, and last season Kobe had a GREAT season playing crazy minutes and in every game, and they STILL almost missed the playoffs.
"Steve Nash can't be that injured again!"
Well actually, he can. He is like 40. Those guys usually don't stay too healthy. There's also the possibility that he just isn't good anymore, because he's super old.
"We are going to be starting Jordan Hill at center, Steve Blake at shooting guard, and Ryan Kelly and Jodie Meeks are going to be our top two bench players....Oh wait....f*ck"
...
its a good day!
howard leaves you
you get nothing in return
and kobe is the one that chased him off!
and it is only going to get better!
Laker Fans go ahead and neg me, I will enjoy each one!
