The Poojer Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I know. Who knows how Boogie will turn out post injury, McGee played the role VERY well. If he comes back in November and can get his legs/feet working, this team could be even more dominant than they were.

I don’t see how it makes any sense for him on a personal level. If he brought along CP3 or Paul George then he could seemingly compete. I hate Kevin Love but there is a legitimate chance that none of those Laker kids ever play as well as him. On a personal level he now owns LA.

It was just a friendly wager/bet. Did the Colts tank a game just to avoid the media circus or was it because Polian wanted to avoid injuries? Steph's been relatively healthy his career. Missed about 20 games this year and most of 2011. Outside of that, pretty reliable. I don't agree with your Knicks statement. If he was on the Knicks, he would still be an All Star.

Watch them destroy the Lativian Gangbanger... These are the exact words from Caldwell. Doesn't sound like he pulled the starters because they didn't want to go undefeated. He wanted to ensure they were healthy for the playoffs. Doesn't really seem that they wanted to avoid the media attention....his actions were the complete opposite. “The most important thing is to make certain that we are operating on all cylinders come the playoffs,” Caldwell said. “The most important season is the one coming up.” Porzingas has improved every year with Knicks....certainly doesn't look like they're destroying his career. I'm not sure how he's aging rapidly when he played and started every single game in 15 and 16....last year he was injured but that doesn't indicate anything other than he had an injury. Especially since he was great in the Finals. 1 minute ago, Cripple Creek said: Why do you think mustaches are disgusting? Not all mustaches, just the ones I grow. Mine doesn't get thick.

Got it tx Row This years Summer League MVP was Josh Hart....he is good at finishing around the rim but would not call him a power dunker per say He was not just good in Summer League he was also good in the regular rotation for the lakers last year....and many believe that by the end of the year he had surpassed the starter Caldwell Pope How do you feel about KL going to Toronto?
