[storm2006]

As soon as I saw frshstunna post that, I knew this pic was coming . I mentioned before that I actually used to be good friends with her but she’s fallen off the face of the earth. Not sure if they were clout chasing but dudes used to BEAST over her in college.

Funny enough I'm pretty sure it was a laker fan who coined ALA

Yea noblekane keep pushing the lie that non laker fans started it , when it was some Laker cats that made it up when they got upset at the horrendous stretch and slander they were going thru just a few years back ...The real ones took it and flipped it like bosses tho

I thought this season was a wash too, but I'm optimistic that there's a chance that we can reach a point where we can resume the season later in the year.

Obviously, the disease itself won't completely disappear in the next couple of months and we'll still have to take precautions and all. But seeing how South Korea and even China has handled the situation it leaves me with some optimism that we shouldn't give up.

Apparently, the virus is slowing down in China and a lot of the stores and businesses are starting to open up again after lockdown.

The virus is slowing down there because basically they locked down their respective countries, meanwhile the leadership here was just calling it a hoax last week and you still got people not taking it seriously. There's really no excuse for the US to be behind the 8 ball in preparations for this virus but we are and unfortunately just at the beginning of things. Cases are essentially doubling by the day.

Yup.

Watching Game 7 2016. Man Draymond was amazing. Too bad Steph was stinking up the joint so bad and ruined his finals MVP.

Worst case scenario, no champion in 2020. What a time to be alive.

I’ll take it. Don’t care if it’s all benchwarmer dudes.

[lawdog1]

If they cancel the season completely, some accommodations need to be made for the teams that made deadline trades or signed buy-out guys or both. Like they should be allowed to resign them for above the minimum without a cap penalty.

I am not at all biased on this subject.

There were, in fact, some real punches thrown in those clips. Not many landed. Hoopers are not fighters.

And why Hakeem just randomly slap that dude?

 

[moonman818]

"Defense"

Yooooo... Mike really let dude swing on him like that at the end?

 

[thekillerj23]

I still don't believe this, Ron Artest never mentioned Mike in that clip or did he? Lebron always sad the first time he met mike was his Senior or Junior year or some JB tourney

I don't think the story Artest told was in rwference to the tweet.

Spoiler: NSFW

The call by that Italian announcer really added to it too.

"Wade from behind takes it away.....Chalmers......Cole.......JAMES!!!!!"

"The problem that more of us can't get the tests -- and I'm not apologetic about saying it -- in my view, that rests at the foot of the federal government. They were responsible for making sure we were protected in that regard and I think they failed.

"I get it," Roberts said. "People should not be having to wait in line. The at-risk population should be the first to be tested. But goddammit, if the government had done what they were supposed to do, we wouldn't be competing for an opportunity to be tested."

she ain’t lying

Seeing that I laid a little over 2k on the Rockets to come out the West, this is actually a scenario that I welcome with open arms.
