Tomorrow we play the team most of us hate the most, and there isn't even a thread to bash the shit out of the Piss & Purple? I want to embarrass that team. I wonder how many of the K*be lovers will show up wearing their #8/#24 jerseys tomorrow night?
They've already taken advantage of the Fairweather Bandwagon trade in... Trade in your fandom of Kobe for Griffin... no one will judge.
Laker hate is just getting stale now. Shows how petty our fanbase is when we're still obsessed with them.
It's not stale, it's just always going to be there. I think most of the transition has gone over to OKC.
Look at their line up and see the embarrassment. They are in super tank mode, they sent their only decent scrub to d league cause he was winning too many games for them.
The Lakers are in super-tank mode. I say that we kick them while they are down and maybe it may take longer for them to get back up again? I really wish that Chris Paul would have been traded to New York and allow the SoCal area suffer for a while just like every other market has. At this point, is their really any difference between Chris Paul on the Clippers versus playing for the Lakers; it's the same exact building they play in at home?
If we really wanted to troll them we'd give them a win. But it doesn't matter what place they are. I bet they could be 14th and the balls would land their way.
The only glimmer of hope I have for the league at this point is that David Stern appears to have returned the game to it's former self and now the new commissioner can do what he wants with it. I do believe that this is a DOWN year for the league over all but I also firmly believe that this is for the betterment. It appears that more teams are trying to play with in the confines of the lottery which is a good thing; it's just going to take some time for that progress to show up.
There is no possible way that the hate for that shit-bucket team will ever dissipate. Not when you are a true Blazer fan.
Define "within the confines" ... because Philadelphia is clearly tanking, and it's not even a question. They are TRYING to be worse than Milwaukee... and that does take an effort.
The only thing that's going to dissipate is the smug fandom of their unbearable front-runner 'fans'. God I hate those pricks. I will hate the Lakers and their fans with my last dying breath.
Beautiful. I would agree - I will always hate them and their pathetic fans that show up to the Moda Center. I'm expecting to see the weakest turnout of their fake fans that we've ever seen tonight.
Sadly, that's how the game is played. I don't begrudge Philly and the Bucks for playing the game to win. Especially the poor Bucks and their fans. They've been screwed ever since Jabbar forced his way out of town and to the...Lakers. Did I mention I hate the Lakers?
Yeah, but who are these guys the Blazers are playing tonight? Kendall Marshall, Jodie Meeks, Kent Bazemore, Wesley Johnson, & Pau Gasol as the starting five for the Lakers? They ought to put LINO (Lakers In Name Only) on the uniforms instead of Lakers.
