Just copped two tix to the Wiz/Dubs game at Oracle on the 27th. I'll likely be getting there early to get an Alvin Attles Bobblehead and meet with him and his son, as well as get on the court before the game. A birthday present for my son Miles who turns 20 (!) on the 20th.

Been watching Baseball but Hayward is out for the year for Boston, so I guess LeBron has another free ride to the Finals. We all hate the C's but I hate to see that, Gordon is a good kid and they actually had a great chance of reaching the Finals.

Horrible. Watching the Cavs, Chowds, Dubs and Houston makes me sick. We’re so far away from that level of play and the absurd amount of talent on those teams. Nick Young with 20 points in 13 minutes. So many shooters who need to be double teamed, he’s all alone. We don’t have one player who will require double teams. Sucks.

We will get there, Lonzo is the real deal, I think Ingram is too but I am starting to wonder. OKC can challenge the Warriors IMO. Man that was a devastating injury for Boston, they are done already. That is 20 points a game they are losing.

Been reading a lot of Laker fans' opinions on Julius, and 95% of it ain't good. Is he a career Kurt Rambis? There's nothing wrong with that. If we were winning, he wouldn't be as criticized - Laker fans are so sensitive and emotional these days. We're so desperate for wins that every little thing gets scrutinized and overblown in an armchair attempt to "solve" our problems. Is Luke doing the right thing? Are Randle and Clarkson trade bait for a top-notch veteran? Limited minutes for Randle would send that type of message. We're still on the climb!

I like Randle but he just doesn't seem like a fit. His contract makes him difficult to trade. Same with Clarkson. They ain't going to get much for either one of them, but one or both will be traded. Meanwhile, The Thunder put up 87 points in a loss to Utah last night with Melo scoring 26 (3, 2) and George 22 (5, 2). Westbrook had a Lonzo-like line of 6 points (2-11) with 13 rebounds and 9 assists in 36 minutes. Keep an eye on them this season. Perhaps Paul George will lose his enthusiasm for playing with them.

FYI, David Nwaba went 15-11 in a Bulls win tonight. Fuck D’Angelo Russell. We have Josh Hart though.

Not sure you agree but getting rid of Russell was a great thing IMO. I don't think he would've mesh well with Lonzo.

That win last night has me pumped, I love Lonzo already. Randle was a man last night! Ingram was Mr Clutch too. I love my Lakers!
