Maybe not as much fun if Kobe is hurt, although it would solve the whole "can Nash and Kobe" play together thing.

*barfs*

the lakers better win it all this year or else that photo is gonna be infamous

ban jordan

NOW
this
is going
to be
FUN

suggest thread title change 'NOW this is going to be FUN 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (ban jordan)'

:-(

lol

#sandy

ball

i know we talked abt this before but what is up w/dwights legs in that pic

i think maybe whoever retouched that cover forgot to do the legs?

i'm taken aback by the wrinkled shorts... like, really, sports illustrated didn't have an iron on set?

e-ball-a virus

amare out 6-8 weeks btw

god i h8 that being at the top of the thread now im gonna barf whenever i open it

yah it looks overall way over sharpened but then they forgot to do anything else to the shorts and legs

both their expressions are terrible what a horrible photograph

#banjordan

i support it being at the top of the thread tho, perfectly encapsulates this fallen league

we must never forget this photo

dwight's right leg looks like its been on a rotisserie

when he asked to get that kobe on his knee they thought he meant kobe (beef)

lol

haha

i'm not gonna harp on this but...i would not have gone with a jay-z lyric or put a picture of the lakers at the top of this thread

i stuck with the good music theme kicked off by m bison & c'mon how could that NOT be at the top of this thread? LOOK AT THAT PHOTO

RIP NBA WYTES

i should note that i'm gonna be flying during the heat/celtics game tonight but i will read that entire issue on the plane so i'm slightly less angry

LOOK AT THAT PHOTO

they are expressing relief that finally, NOW, the lakers are going to be FUN

(now that kobe has three superstars to bitch at when they miss a crunch time shot)

steve's expression says cmon guys you cant hate me, im still steve nash...right?

ay i mean right

i will do predictions when i get home

Mavs beating the Heat was FUN. The Lakers stomping on mediocre teams during the reg season is hardly my idea of FUN.

http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/dish/201210/are-minnesota-timberwolves-too-white

hm

I'm just shocked there's finally a whiter team than the Pacers. pale arms race.

My impression is that for the guys in the locker room, balling skillz are about a hundred times more important than skin color.

Now, if the TWolves were sitting good black players in order to give underskilled white guys more minutes, the locker room would be a shambles in just a few months. But Adelman would NEVER do that in a million years.

the lakers are so cool, its gonna be mondo sweet rooting for them all the way to the finals this year, dribblin balls and dunking on LeBum Gaymes, laughin and clappin and hi fivin all the way

no rooting for the lakers itt

If you godless animals can root for the Heat, all bets are off for the rest of us

he has a point there GUYS

also lol lakers, heat

ZBo on FIRE

was only a matter of time before he freebased

ZBo one of only 2 players in the past decade to have 38-22+ (other was Dwight last season)

wait nola pelicans is a real thing? i hope so, that is a rad name!

would be a good time to ditch the carolina baby blue while they're at it, i'd kind of like to see this owner's wife's navy blue-red-gold scheme

wd love a #mrsbensonhoopsidea trend, lagoon make it so

im basically used to names like "thunder" and "heat" but still don't like them as they don't break down well into singular nouns without awkward constructions like "lebron james, a player for the miami heat" where you could once say "lebron james, a cleveland cavalier"

so looking forward to "eric gordon, former new orleans pelican looking for a new team after his buyout"

okc alternates are every bit as weird as you'd think btw, they look like they have nothing to do with their regular uniforms and are kind of retro but not in a committed way like the heat's floridians throwbacks and the vertical "thunder" stripe just looks bizarre

durant was a half inch away from the dunk of the year over dray blatche tho

UGH

Vinny looks like the wisecracking protagonist in a Ski School/Snowboard Academy movie

no way hes totally the sidekick

omg you're right

also made me think of the many facets of roger:

http://www.regrettablemusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/facetsofroger.jpg

That compilation video... Man, the Clippers are the worst.

it'd be nice if some fines were forthcoming from all that

cool shirt tho

http://thesportsgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/floppersshirt.jpeg

Nice!

They should just issue a warning to the entire team in one fell swoop.

they should make the clippers wear that shirt in warmups

hey hoopsheads: are the sixers just unbelievably shitty or did the wolves just play that good last nite?

both.

sixers gave away their best player for a bad perm so

hehe

evan could be good tho

attn m bison:

can you please change this thread title to "the lakers have just pooped their big-boy pants: 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (part 1)"

thanks,

maybe we should switch to part 2 soon. Almost 5000 posts already this season!

all star break, mayne

or we could ... do ... 3 parts

I don't think number of parts matters much if we're posting so often.

the lakers have just pooped their big-boy pants

http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=77&threadid=82996

yes i support creating a part 2 thread and calling it that

agreed, we cannot be contained within only two threads

lol chauncy billups flop on that last shot with zero actual contact, brilliant

still running on the fumes of that 04 ring rep

there was definitely a lot of flopping in that video and the clips are the worst offenders in the league but there was also some regular loose ball rough stuff that looked like it was randomly called which happens, a lot of utah defenders reaching instead of moving their feet, and some butthurt announcers used to every call going the home way in salt lake

support thread pt 2 but do the lakers really deserve 2 thread titles in a row, hmm

the lakers have just popped their big-boy pants

POOPED

pipped

you wanted it, you got it the lakers have just pooped their big-boy pants: 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (part 2)

thw world of hoops thanks you

poop lol
