Back off, you tap dancer!

Bahahahahahahaha

I see a certain fraud is fraudulenting again. Anyway I comment my reserve

Roland17:
Once again, I ask Ajala’s disciples, what has Ajala achieved since he joined the Lakers without “Street Clothes AD”?

I mean, the roster has been changed every season by LeGM (oh they thought we have forgotten?), adding HOFs, dashing others draft picks and younger talents for what?

Baba should just collect his All Time scoring title and allow us rest.

Just padding stats as usual.

The thing that grates on my nerves is when the role players ball and get no praise. 3 players scored 20+ points on more efficient shooting. Russ 15 assists

Let them have a bad game it's trade them all. Mind you this is someone they say makes everyone better

Dollar will be 1k5 by 2025 with this Tinubu policy

Eyes have not seen ears have not heard the shege Nigerians will witness if Tinubu wins that elections

Shey people are still crying about the 22 trn Buhari and Meffi have blitzed through

Lmao. Nobody is talking about Thomas Bryant's 29-14 or Schroeder's 27 on 25 shots combined or Russ's 23 and 15

Or the Lakers beating the Heat without Lebron

Let them lose like 2 games in a row now all we will hear from Nick Wright and other Bronsexuals is Trade Everybody!! Fire Pelinka. Lebron's years are being wasted

Zero credit, all the blame. Smh

R.I.P Luca Vialli

Really sad and terrible news

Kilishihunter:
Violence can be found in the unexpected of places my brother. That reply was "hit em up" akin just that it was meant for one nigga this time, Dude's probably been pricing his brand of sniper on jumia since early morn

Come be like say e get am for mind

Roland17:
In it's entirety, Skip's comments were not as bad, the problem is the timing.

He got the timing totally wrong because this is more than just football, we are talking about someone hanging on for his life. It is not the time to talk about scheduling or other issues.

What he said was insensitive and the timing was bad but as far as the core of what he said if we look at it critically it's not wrong.

Do you know how many workplace accidents happen everyday? Imagine a Walmart or Amazon truck crashes and sadly lives are lost and then all the other trucks don't function people will be up in arms. Even the same people attacking Skip now

birdman:
Shaq wey don reach ECF vs Jordan already.

Duhh. He had Penny Hardaway

nateevs:
Hehehe. For real?

Young man, you might never have been told this, but YOU DO NOT possess the intelligence to decipher anything or anyone dumb.

You don't even have the intelligence to understand basic punctuation when writing, yet you want to pass on the understanding of the complexities of FFP and multi-club ownership as your own.

This is why I called it copy and paste. I know this because in all of your 1 million child-like compositions, you have failed to mention the single most-important reason Boehly doesn't mind paying over the odds for Enzo, but wants it NOW. You have never been told, so you are unable to know this your own. I will tell you, so you can copy and paste elsewhere.

ENZO is 21, and still according to the provisions of FFP, considered an Academy player. Therefore all expenditure on the Academy is outside of FFP scrutiny. So Boehly can write off all of the expenditure as development funds. You understand now?

Why does Boehly want it now? Well Enzo turns 22 on the 17th and therefore any deals made afterwards are subject to FFP.

Smart move but he's still overpaid....grossly! And that's why the bone of contention has been about the price paid, not whether Enzo is required or if Boehly is smart.

But you are trying to form intelligentsia when you know nothing. You think it's by posting every second.

I no dey fight on here but if it will happen, at least I will prefer some real G with average understanding of their own position, not some nitwit who doesn't appreciate the proper use of a full stop.

Come at me again, and I will phucking destroy you.

The nateevs I know is a peace loving bloke. When did you start drinking from the fountain of Vawulence

airmark:
Trailer don enter una between? This thread is dead sha, like Boathand's career.

Trailer where? Guy you're in your 40s mehn. Stop behaving like a Gossip girl.

airmark:
Na wa o, Raumdeuter and his boy A40, no fit even greet each other here. Well, happy new year to all Bayern Munich fans.

What a time to be alive without the calamitous Boathand in Munich to y'all.

Grown man oh. See wetin you dey worry about

birdman:
How do you grow up with shaq? LOL!

Kobe literally came into the league at 18. Shaq was 24.

Are you comparing this to the Heatles linking up in their late 20s??

birdman:
Well sha, keep the same energy for Durants rings with the warriors. As well as celtics big 3 ring. Since they were all easy

Kobes #4 and #5 as well. Maybe even #1,2,3. ahan...

Lol you're a funny guy. Everyone already hates on KD'S rings. If a two time MVP can link up with a Finals MVP and another top 5 pick in his draft all in their athletic primes. Why shouldn't KD push the envelope? Na only una guy deserve ring?

Nice try. Kobe never had a big 3. They drafted him and he grew up with Shaq.

Lmaoo you're comparing bringing just Pau Gasol to freaking Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. Have some shame

Khanben:
For parity, to return a lot of stakeholders have to stop this useless narrative that winning is dependent on one player. As long as people keep calling a player who played his best a choker for losing to a clearly better team, then this trend will sadly continue, if the narrative becomes more objective then guys will be more incentivised to stay put and make it work.

The truth is Superteams have always existed. But they were organically formed via the draft. The problem now comes when teams go about it in a cynical way

Where does it start and where does it stop? Everyone is out there trying to win. What counts is for everyone to fight fair. The choking narrative is not going to go away because there are certain players that always underperform in the brightest of lights.

For every Lebron and KD that took shortcuts there would always be a Dirk and Giannis

Roland17:
Man I hope Damar Hamlin makes it..

Prayers up!

This one brings back painful memories. Hope he is able to scale through. The hit didn't look too serious at first glance

rooftops:
Omo koulibally na mad man

Security. OC Guardo

udatso:
Aswearogod I have given up on dembele's shooting. Fati is becoming a direct opposite of what he used to be. Then, whenhe takes a shot, you are expecting a goal or a difficult one for the keeper to handle if shit is not blocked. Sadly he is now like Dembouz.

Lol. Dembouz the useless player

birdman:
Celtics started it, but "The Decision" by Lebron turned it a thing. Shortly after that, Durant would leave for warriors. But ya know, I like this new breed on nba stars. I feel like they have too much pride to be jumping around. Guys like Ja, Luka, Tatum will be on one team for a long time.

There needs to be a return to normalcy and parity.

When one person decides to take shortcut you can't come and dictate to people which shortcut is acceptable and which is not. Oyinbo call am hypocrisy

Anyway let's hope the parity continues and people don't try to take more shortcuts to easy rings moving forward

birdman:
True talk, no lies here.

But then again, lets assume Lebron never left Cavs. They would always get to ECF even with bad teams, and keep missing out on draft picks. At some point Dan Gilbert would have had to make a big FA trade for another superstar, which he did not want to do at the time.
If Lebron had not left Cavs, Cavs would NEVER have spent the money on FA that they did to bring Lebron back.

Anyhow, 4 rings is nothing to sneeze at. Live by the sword, die by the sword they say. I think Lebron's negotiations that brought him 4 rings has now put him in a tight spot. Lakers front office is not very smart, and Buss does not seem inclined to change it.

They tried to get him a support cast. Their focus was on depth. Not his fault no marquee Free Agent was going to leave their city to go to Cleveland.

Remember back then everyone was still fighting fair till the Celtics formed their big 3.

For example who was Dwight's second best player? Who was the second best player on Jason Kidd's Nets. The Heat was good for two seasons but reverted to dust after 06

The East was quite weak back then.

Dirk Nowitzki for instance had it much worse in the more competitive West

I think he squeezed out as much juice as he could out of his team hopping. I still maintain that had Lebron not formed the Heatles, KD would not have needed to join Golden State. He made it fashionable to take the path of least resistance

It's a domino effect. The Celtics were the biggest victims of the shortcut they took forming the big 3. Lebron formed the Heatles and ultimately got his comeuppance in the hand of the Warriors 7 years down the line

One thing about sports is you can't be in win now mode via free agency and still expect to compete every year. That's not how it works. Look at the Rams that mortgaged their future for a Superbowl last season, this season where are they? Out of playoff contention since Week 13.

Bulls, Spurs, Warriors. What do they have in common? Their best players came via the draft

Buss and Pelinka are just being made as scapegoats. When you have 3 max contracts and have traded all your picks till 2025. Where is your wiggle room and leverage going to come from?

Even if the Lakers finish in a lottery position this season the Pelicans can swap picks. That is what happens when you mortgage your future for Anthony Davis. Can't eat your cake and have it

Khanben:
The trade for AD was not a bad trade. The inexcusable one is letting Caruso and co go just to bring in Westbrook who doesn't fit with your best players.

I didn't say it was good or bad. I mean it yielded a Championship that took a pandemic and 4 months rest to facilitate. So make of that what you will

The problem is when you make your bed and are now refusing to lie on it. I screamed myself hoarse on this thread about AD's injury history and have I been vindicated or nahh

Caruso, KCP, in this roster would not have made any difference if AD got frequently hurt.

This insistence on always going for the home run free agent and star name instead of building organically is what is biting LeNomad like so. They say he's old, he can't be on a building team menenemenene, but you can't always cheat the process. At some point the basketball gods will call you on your B.S

I'd hope the tradeoff of 1 title is worth the hassle of not being competitive for 3 seasons straight

Kilishihunter:
This poor Lakers look nothing compared to when they swooped the bubble ring, LeBron should probably ditch his dream of playing with his son and retire
The spirit is truly willing but the body is weak

They traded their future for a bubble ring. Ingram, Hart, Lonzo, Kuzma, KCP, Caruso and draft picks pretty much for AD and Westbrook

That's what happens when you try to always load up and hit the home run on stars and never build organically. Yeah you might fluke a ring or two but the aftermath is always terrible.

I see LeNomad crying for another trade again

This man's entire MO is really to jump to the most loaded team in the league and take the path of least resistance to a chip

He's turned the NBA basically to a glorified AAU circuit. No way any right thinking man considers him the GOAT

Can't even stand ten toes down on his comments 2 months into the season. Shey they said he makes others better

I still do not know how the Mavs managed to win that game. Down 9 with 37 seconds to go. Incredible. And Luka. What can I say mayne

WhoDeyHause:
Andrew rest. The way you are overdoing this celebration it's like you have somehow seen you people will go trophyless again and be disgraced in ulokpa. Even though messi is your legend he will soon sign a new deal with psg meaning he doesn't rate your iron condemn club again. Will you keep on posting picture till season end? Even messi himself has calmed down and is already looking forward to playing for psg.

Not iron condemn

Ibukzy:
Don't be mischievous, 2 goals with how many assists ,and Xavi specifically told him to stay wide so he was purely playing as a Winger

Assist is reliant on the recipient scoring. No?

Why can't he score even 5 goals as a RWF. This useless player that caused your Messi tons of pain in the Champions league due to his non production is who you people are defending now? For what? To prove me wrong? Is it for eba? Garri? Beans or dodo?

andrewbaba44:
Coman better than dembele with his poorer goals and assist than dembele

Your brain suppose tell you the amount of games wey coman don play pass dembele own ,you just open mouth call the G/A without even checking the amount of games

You no even call better players for Bayern

You dissed dembele with goals and I just exposed how coman is poorer you don run to champions league finals because you wan turn amala , as if dembele won’t do well at Bayern ,there is a reason why coman sat on the bench for France for 2 World Cups

Bro I no get power to argue with you and your sentiments because it will be a waste of time

Who praises coman and diss dembele

Na everything dembele take pass coman

Even Mario gotze have decided a world cup final ,I guess that makes him better than Thomas muller

Stop disgracing yourself here and rest

Happy Xmas in advance ogbeni

Keep enjoying your Dembele. Mor0n. We will be here when you lot come to wail about his uselessness when he fvcks up in another crucial Champions League Europa League game

Useless player that has achieved nothing of note in 5 seasons at Barcelona.

Dembele do well at Bayern? Who dash am? What kind of self respecting winger in modern football scores 2 goals in a full season?

Coman has decided the biggest club competition in football by scoring. What has your Dembele ever done?

Small small boys that just came from Brazil Rodrygo and Vinicius have already made impact. Your useless Dembele. Nothing

Dembele that had 11 appearances and started 8 matches at the World Cup not 1 single goal. He contributed as much to France's success as you that's typing this foolishness

Olodo. What concern Mario Gotze in this your ogogoro example. Is Dembele as good as Thomas Muller?

Ibukzy:
Despite his injury, he still score more than 10 goals During the 18/19 season
And apart from Lewandoswki he is still Barca's best attacker with 9 contributions toward goals in the league, last season he was the best assist maker in La Liga

Ok nau. Keep hyping mediocrity. You had to go back 4 seasons to show where he had double digits

How can a RWF go an entire season scoring 2 goals in 32 apps. 2 goals!!

andrewbaba44:
You are dissing dembele while you have Kingsley coman at your club ,I hope you don’t rate him also ,because na there wahala go Dey for me and you

Kingsley coman 246 games for Bayern 50 goals and 61 assists ,this stats no better pass dembele own ,I say make I remind you sha

Remember dembele is always on the hospital bed till mid last season and yet Kingsley coman who plays for a better team than dembele can’t even boast of better stats than him

111 G/A

Vs Dembele's 78 G/A

Coman for all his weaknesses is still better than Dembele. You saw how the game changed after his introduction

Mind you Kingsley Coman has decided a Champions League final. Dembele??

Oldboss:
It also applies to mbappe

But Mbappe has end product unlike Dembele

Btw guess who had the most dribbles at the last world Cup

Clue: It's not Messi

Bimmarlykay:
I dun yan am before the guy is to sentimental towards anything Barca.

Once he loses his speed he is completely finished. He's ass ass

Has he even scored 10 goals in a season since joining Barca?

A wing forward for that matter

andrewbaba44:
Let’s not forget that dembele started all France game and was superb ,he was only bad at the finals

Dembele superb? Dembele with no goal and 1 assist?

Person wey una suppose package for one mugu EPL club to buy. 5 years at Barcelona and he's not improved at anything
