    Even I need a vacation after this.

    Maybe I'll go to LA!

    LA is broken inside in some specific, personal way that Dame isn't. LA doesn't trust anyone, and frankly, I don't blame him. The game and the chaos surrounding it sound pretty dog-eat-dog, and if you're not careful you'll get taken for granted.

    Yeah I think so too. Would Allen sign off on giving Wes $15m per if it meant LMA comes back? That would be sweet. Make the Kings looks like fools too.

    No, that's the opposite of a good thing. Hibbert's a golem.

    I kinda dig Plumlee (not in the way KS digs his brother). I think Plumlee may not be a sexy add, but he may have been an upgrade. Part of me would rather spend that cash on Wes, but in on the fence there.

    But bigger and darker.

    And Golem is surprisingly agile.

    The kings don't need anyone to make them look like fools. They've been in the corner with the dunce cone on their heads for a while now.

    LA is more like an average normal person.

    Lillard is just very unique with his charism, ability to handle media and fans.

    Not gollum, golem... a man made of clay, slow and strong, but not agile or graceful.

    LA's introverted. He's probably sick of Portlanders being so friendly and smiley.

    It's certainly like a cliched script for a romantic-comedy, especially with the requisite scene where the male lead flies across the country at the eleventh hour to reveal his true feelings to the female lead. In this case, LaMarcus is the female. :lol:

    So you're saying he hasn't run into our crowd of hipsters? That seems as unlikely as his return...

    If Lillard manages to convince LA to come back, will the celebration for LaMarcus be bigger or the praise heaped on Dame for returning LA to the fold?

    How perfect that Aldridge meets with the Lakers, then meets with Dame right after. Aldridge will say "dang I forgot how cool this cat is"

    I heard black people don't drink beer, so no he probably hasn't.

    Someone on LG came up with a surprisingly good word to summarize all this: LACIRCUS
