This is glorious! I was hoping you could break your pact and show up so we can troll you Apostates. Hahahaha from 8 straight Finals to no playoffs at all.

Watching the horde of LeNomad fans from Shannon to Nick to the ones I know personally moan and wince and drop every excuse known to man has been so hilarious.

Of course he's wrong but I like what he said anyway. Considering he dragged a worse Lakers team to the playoffs. This season sheds more light on what Kobe had to do in the 05/06 and 06/07 seasons when he had to drag Smush Parker and Kwame Brown to the playoffs.

Troll me? Ohh please!

He loses in the finals you b-tch, he doesnt go to the finals you b-tch. its obvious he cant do right in your eyes so your opinion doesnt even matter.

And the last time i saw you werent you trying to lure me into a bet. Imagine betting against Canelo, the best pound for pound boxer in the world (Bud and Loma dont have his resume, no active boxer comes close except pac mans cadaver)! LOL. Wonder how that ended for you, hope you didnt bet your life savings knowing you're as addicted to gambling as your bald he-goat.

Lmaooo dry your eyes mate. I credit your LeNomad for showing some chutzpah to migrate to the West where the 8th seed is 11 games over .500 and not 1 game <500

Now he has to radio for backup as usual when things get sticky. Better pray and fast for Anthony Davis and another all-star to join next season or you would have to be more creative with your excuses

Lmaooo Negro shush it! Why would any OG bettor stake with a sport that's clearly rigged? I knew better after the first fight. GGG was robbed again same way Fury was robbed vs your windmill merchant Wilder. Boxing is borderline WWE nowadays.

I would have loved to take you on the Lakers missing the playoffs like I predicted so you would not just be wailing but a few pesos lighter too

Must hurt knowing core Lakers fans don't give a damn about your Nomadic herdsman. He's even got booed and barely got a reaction when he passed MJ. Truth be told the way the Lakers surrendered so tamely spoiled the fun for some of us. 18 games to go and the season was already over. Damn

i dont even care anymore, at least not as much as i used to. I have other things on my plate. I know its improbably but I just hope they trade him. The NBA sucks with him there and the playoffs will be even worse. Spoiler alert, the warriors destroy everyone on their way to another worthless ring. Wont even bother watching.

There's something that doesn't feel right about the Warriors. I don't think it will be as straightforward as everyone thinks

LOL Again he has a winning record against western teams. The lakers were derailed by a series of unfortunate events but they would have made noise this year. I am yet to see who can win in the NBA without help so what is wrong with getting some?

LOL Canelo won the second fight fair and square, i know pundits and fans hate him and predicted hed lose, i know many lost their money but be honest with yourselves. Even Abel admitted that Canelo took it to GGG, they wanted mexican style, he met them at the middle of the ring and your GGG couldnt do shit but take the plastic surgery canelo inflicted on him. Canelo won that clearly in my eyes. Andre Ward, Sugar Ray Leonard, Floyd and many others saw it the same way too.

And as for Fury, you cant get put on your a-s twice and cry about the decision. A draw is a fair result in my eyes. Thats how the british judge scored it as well.

Yes because he padded his wins record with the dross of the Conference. A combined 11-3 against the dross that weren't sniffing the playoffs like Dallas, Pelicans, Sacramento and Phoenix

What I would expect a skilled analyst to point out at all times is that the Lakers were still in contention to make the playoffs with 31 games left when LeNomad returned.

Ohhhh no no no I would have to be really naïve to stake on that fight after it became clear that a Knockout was the only shot GGG had at scoring a win. I'm a logical bettor now not an emotional one.

GGG outlanded Canelo in 8 of the 12 rounds, 18 media houses and only 1 had Canelo winning. It was another heist

Lmaooo you call that first slip a knockdown? That's desperate. I was actually rooting for Wilder but he let me down with his agricultural boxing. He put Fury on his a$$ in the 12th yet Fury got up and still outboxed him and almost knocked him out. It's a pity the boxing gods didn't bless Fury with KO power.

Even Americans thought Wilder lost that fight. Teddy Atlas, Max Kellerman, I've not seen a credible American boxing pundit that didn't hand Wilder the L for that fight

LOL but a tough conference shouldnt have "bad teams". Besides, if you beat the bottom teams, lose to the top teams and clear out the "weaker" east you still make the playoffs so that really isnt an excuse.

He came back wen they were out of rhythm, lost momentum, then the whole trade fiasco.

Thats not how boxing is scored, canelo landed far more power shots. Again even GGGs trainer was complaining about how triple G fought.

You mean the media houses that all predicted canelo would lose? surprise surprise they sided with their pick in a close fight.

LOL! Call it what you want that was a 10-8 round on every score card. Plus a few close rounds early on. Again a draw is certainly not a robbery like you sensitive boxing fans always like to claim after a fight that doesnt go your way.

Even Americans thought Wilder lost that fight. Teddy Atlas, Max Kellerman, I've not seen a credible American boxing pundit that didn't hand Wilder the L for that fight
Nope, everyone expected wilder to knock him out, he performed below par and that made fury look good. But ask Fury why he blatantly ran away from a rematch with wilder, he knows. Like wilder said, when he hit him in the 12th, he "touched his soul". He knows the bermaine stiverne treatment awaits him in the rematch.

What are the odds a 15 team conference wouldn't have bad teams? I'm telling you your perennial stat padder padded his records against the dross of the division. However playing in a tougher conference means you need to be 10 games over .500 to make it to the dance. Their weak record against the playoff contenders put them at a distinct disadvantage

When he came back they had a soul lifting win vs the Clippers. Why didn't they build on it? Even in the East trades happened and they made noise come playoffs time. If LeNomad was as much a leader as Bronsexuals claim then why couldn't he lead this bunch to the playoffs instead of pouting like a teenager. Kobe led trasher teams to the playoffs

YulisCromwell:

Naah. His shots were mostly to the body. That was where he had his real edge

By the rounds GGG outlanded him 8 times while Canelo made up for it by landing disproportionate shots in the other 4. It's pretty much the same trick Sugar Ray used vs Hagler

Yes I agree. Wilder should be knocking out a guy that was out of the sport for almost 3 years, borderline obese and took warm-up fights with a bunch of pizza delivery guys. Instead he was thoroughly outclassed and his fellow Americans boxers like Mayweather, pundits like Max, Stephen A and legends like Atlas all gave Wilder the L

I was not expecting Wilder to be taught a boxing lesson and almost getting knocked out after scoring a KO. It's a pity Fury punches like a fairy else Wilder would have been knocked out

Wilder is making the usual noise he made for the AJ fight till we found out it was all a ruse. Scoring a controversial draw in your own country is a polite way of telling you you lost the fight. Everyone in boxing knows this except you

That celebration was disgraceful to watch, how the entire Lakers bench did not get a technical for stepping on the court is beyond me. I think that is the highlight of their season sufficient enough for them to bring some sort of closure.

Miles Turner is only 23!!!!! A lot of upside for the kid and with Nate he will get better especially now that he has been paid.

PG3 has to be consistent if the Thunder team hope to go deep in the post season, this is because they lack offensive depth and Brodie is not a volume scorer the team can depend on. They would have to force teams to play under 100 or 105 to get comfortable victories.

LOL So maybe the west isnt as stacked as you claim it is after all. Again, if a team wins against those teams in his conference where you are required to play them in some cases more than twice then loses to the top teams and then clears the eastern teams he should qualify for the playoffs. The funny thing is the lakers have a horrible record against the so called eastern weak conference but you confused lot keep talking about the west just to suit your dumb narrative.

Hagler vs SRL, now that was a robbery.

As a matter of fact, yes they did.

Wilder was never going to outbox fur, what are you smoking. Wilder was only supposed to KO him and anything less than that was why everyone was unimpressed by wilder and so impressed by fury especially after getting up. Wilder won 5 rounds including 2 10 8 rounds, fury won 7. 113-113 like the BRITISH judge saw it was a fair result, everything else was hyperbole by the british fans who cant just shut their mouths, the AJ lovers and the wilder haters like you.

Wilder is making the usual noise he made for the AJ fight till we found out it was all a ruse. Scoring a controversial draw in your own country is a polite way of telling you you lost the fight. Everyone in boxing knows this except you
LOL Fury literally admitted he refused to accept the wilder rematch but wilder was down for it. Fury even said wilder is now so pissed at him hes refusing to pick his phone calls. Fury ran and signed a contract with ESPN and now hes fighting some german tomato can, its embarrassing! One judge was american, one canadian another british, if the brit had scored it for fury then fury would have won, stop speaking out of sentiments!

As for wilder refusing the 100m DAZN offer, heres why hes fully justified. Just a few months ago you lot said 15m was more than he ever made and he should accept it to fight AJ but now theyre offering him 40M? Hes the american with punching power, hes the one with star potential, and why was DAZN hiding what AJ was going to make? Like he said, hes with the people that made mayweather who he is so he should stick by them, very soon 100m will seem too little as well.
