    This thread should die as well. He's gone, he's a hated Laker. He is now the enemy. No reason to continue to waste time and energy talking about him.

    LMAO "DeAndre Ayton is in that class with them"....

    Was kind of surprised we haven't been hearing delusional Laker media and Laker homers with over the top Ayton glee... Guess its now starting.

    If someone can get DA to compete on defense every night like he did early in his career, dunk the ball more times than he pulls up for a middy, then he can be an all star playing with the gravity of Luka.

    I just don't think DA has it in him to do the smart things and to give consistent effort.

    Media types who love the Lakers alternate between pumping the brakes because he got traded for a reason -- twice -- but is more than worth the $8 million AND playing with the stats to make a best case scenario. And singing the praises of Lebron and his influence. And Laker Nation. Until Lebron comes out and sees his shadow and pronounces they're ready, and the Lakers title run can begin, we'll all have to wait for that next brilliant Laker move ... like getting Bradley Beal once Phoenix buys him out.

    If your goal this season isn't to win games then you really fucked up last season.

    Yeah, I found something saying he is a Knicks fan but he lives in LA now. Probably some bias. He also called a chiefs fans yahoos and thought the rest of the afc west would be way better (probably becoming a Chargers fan).

    I don't take what these media guys say seriously. Skip Bayless says off the wall stuff all the time.

    There was some other social media exchange posted here earlier this summer talking about how he needs to leave an influencer alone... not sure if it was also this one.

    Okay, so first of all..... The Times of India? Do they break a lot of news?

    Second, according to said article, she went to the island with him and he kicked her out when she didn't want to have sex....... this seems perfectly reasonable to me. Unless they went on the vacation as friends :dunno:
