    Also, tell me you don't understand Occam's Razor without telling me. Instead of the simples explanation, lottery odds, you go grand conspiracy theory. LOL.

    It’s a lot more likely than 1.8% that the lottery is rigged.

    Except you’re taking out the odds of an NBA team basically going full stupid and trading a young superstar in his prime for a shitty trade against any and all logic.

    It’s not about this season. LeBron is 40. This is about having a star to build around for the future.

    That is completely irrelevant and unrelated. Teams make terrible trades all the time. It's not part of some grand conspiracy. You've been crying about this for like 10 years now. Why the fuck do you even watch? Seriously? Just to whine and bitch and be miserable? WTF?

    No it’s not. It’s part of the conspiracy theory. You can’t have one without the other.

    Sorry I offended your sensibilities.

    I don’t watch. I used to be a huge NBA fan. Not just the blazers. I loved watching the NBA. Now I couldn’t care less and I’m borderline on the blazers. I have reduced my participation in this forum drastically but I guess even that is too much for you?

    A young lazy fat ass who plays no defense. He ain’t leading the Lakers nowhere. And I’m here for it.

    HA HA HA!! You admitting you don’t watch the NBA says a lot. It explains your insane opinions.

    Why would I still watch the rest of the league? It’s still superstar favoritism. Or are you saying that doesn’t exist?

    Yup. I am. I don’t believe any ridiculous conspiracy theories. The best TEAMS win.
