    I don't think he is as likeable and nice as it was thought during his Celtics days anyway.

    Oh, I'm not disagreeing with you. I just like having the evidence there when he tries to boast, is all.

    Not really. He was a little bitch in CLE and is the same in LA. Plus, he's a Laker. He deserves to be hated.

    I don't get it... I really don't understand what the deal is with people trying to douse @KingSpeed's positivity.

    ENCOURAGE THIS.

    Shiiiiit, help me make this MF jump faster! :jumprope:

    The power of positivity is a MF. Manifestation is REAL. I use it everyday and it works well for me. When I succumb to negativity, I have the worst results.

    Besides, we are NOT mathematically eliminated from the 2nd seed so why act like we are? Also, since when has anyone done this:

    In my years in the forum I've literally never seen this. When have you? You haven't, so why form an argument against something I've never seen KS do...?

    There still is a chance however slim it may be. So why ridicule him for being positive?

    2nd quote was a joke. In regards to the 1st quote.. there's a difference between positivity and being positively delusional.

    What's delusional to me is to believe in jinxes and then going around spreading the negativity that causes them.

    Negative results.

    Positivity is powerful. We are vibrational beings.

    Say what you want but his kids are making money playing basketball. His GARBAGE son Liangelo is making money playing basketball.

    He spoke it into existence.

    Edit: And the phrase "speak it into existence" has been said well before Lavar Ball was ever born.

    Here's the problem.... his sons are making money, yes, you're right, but his two youngest kids have what kind of future? They're clearly not good enough to go to the NBA. How long can they play overseas? And what's the end goal there? I guess they could always come home and go back to school. I didn't go back to school and get my degree until I was 27, so it's never too late, but pulling his boys out of school and sending them overseas just seems..... questionable.

    For now.... Also, they aren't making that MUCH money.

    They're living the dream right now, but I don't think it will last very long.

    Is playing in a Lithuania city "the dream" though? It wouldn't be the dream for me. I guess everyone has different dreams, but I can't imagine those two kids dreamed of playing ball in Lithuania at this point in their lives.
