    @canefan Yeah , think you're right re Adams. Think you get my point though, its a fickle league where the best guys (even the best role players) don't always get the ring they deserve.

    History is littered with HoFers who never won rings. A lot of things need to go right, and a little luck helps too

    Lakers are winning this year. Sometimes you have to follow the story, the narrative, the vibe. And it all points one way.

    It's LBJ rolling back the clock at 35 to play some of his best basketball. It's Kobe's legacy guiding the Lakers to a title in the year of his passing. It's Davis proving the doubters wrong.

    The victories against the Bucks and Clips really meant something these last few days. As long as neither player gets injured, I have the Lakers beating the Bucks in 6 in the Finals.

    and, for reasons i can't quantify, that will fuck me off

    I don't like LBJ. I respect the fuck out of him, but i don't like him (he's NBA Tom Brady).

    LBJ and John Cena both have funny as fuck minor roles. Amy Schumer tries to look hot and whilst that never works for her, you still find yourself thinking her tits would be alright. Watch it.

    Lebron is actually pretty good in it. Surprisingly good actor.

    I like LeBron mainly because I think the haters are so extreme and totally unjustified. Buy all accounts he is a great guy, does amazing things for charity, and has barely put a foot wrong in a life that has played out on the most public of stages since he was 15 years old.

    His major problem is that he just isn't effortlessly cool (like Curry, MJ, even Kobe) and he desperately wants to be, despite being so clearly focused on his brand. I always thought that post the decision, he should have embraced the bad guy persona. Just own it and run with it. Guess it didn't fit with the brand he was cultivating.

    Maybe, yeah. I'm not either, but they make her cans look good at times.

    Yeah I don't hate russ I actually like him. Was more a tongue in cheque comment probably more in amazement that a team that lost their two all stars is doing better then when they had them.

    I use to be an unjustified lbj hater mainly from the announcement and also because my best mate was Miami fan before he went there so I had to keep character and bag lbj and call my mate bandwagon fan.

    What do you think will happen when? Adams contract ends. It's set when lots of big names are free agents.he could be a good support piece at a contender....i guess what he was previously.

    @Magpie_in_aus Adams is a big man with soft hands. If he stays relatively free of injury he will be a desirable commodity albeit on a lesser contract

    @canefan yeah I think his contract landed him stuck in okc but the dude still puts in a egoless effort. Would be a crowd favorite in a big name team (already is in okc). Pretty hard to dislike him...unless you run into his screen.

    Crazy scenes as the Jazz v Thunder game was called off seconds before tip off, and then another game because a ref had officiated in the previous Jazz game. And Rudy Gobert had joked about corona virus only a few days prior!

    Have a friend in the US watching his son finish out his senior year. Big sky conference tournament called off like all the others and they only had one game left.
