    LaVar is straight up delusional. Though he has to be thinking he’s more of a character trying to sell a brand than actually believing the shit he says.

    I loved it. Probably watched it five times in a row. I mean I feel bad for Ingram but man this really shines a light on Lebron to me. One of the greatest of all time but god damn he’s dirty. The whole narrative was Lebron going to LA to play with the young core and win. Couldn’t take it halfway through the season. Had to plan with his agent and AD and get that nonsense out there and even involved AD’s father talking shit about Boston and how they treated Isaiah just to make Boston look bad so LA had more leverage in this. Makes me happy they don’t wanna take those laker phone calls. Take the Boston offer in the summer. Fuck the lakers

    LaVar lost his mind long ago and at this point it would not surprise me if he has a secret cult where he is a god of sorts

    Of course if he makes another trade it would change things but I'm talking specifically about if he does nothing else.

    I can hear Howie Right now asking Neil: Deal or No Deal? Then stupid Neil said No Deal and choose to open another case... you know what happens next after that.

    I don't disagree with that at all. Hopefully, the Blazers will some day reach the point that they have to make a decision like that. For now, I would be happy if they just move forward. (and no, Hood doesn't count!)

    The point was pretty clear, saying well other people didn't do something so we shouldn't expect or want the team we are fans of to do something isn't all that valid. Just like if my child said she had bad grades and tried to excuse that as so does everyone else. I wouldn't accept that excuse because in the microcosm of our house how the other kids are doing isn't a valid excuse for how she's doing. Sure that analogy can break down, but I don't care what the other GM's or teams are doing I care what the Blazers are doing.

    Personally, I think it's rather exciting that we've had a thousand posts since Rodney Hood got here...

    I cannot believe nothing has happened since 3 am. It's not busy bars. I checked.

    Lavar is the like opposite of my parents. In that, my dad constantly would be like that dude better than you, if you want me to think differently go prove it. Lavar's constantly like no matter how I do, no matter how my Son does he's still better than everyone and I could still beat Jordan!
