Nah that's just him grieving over the Wizards making D12 their big splash lmao

Looks like he just ate through a wall, only the wall was made out of of weed.

John Wall Gets Roasted For His Rough USA Basketball Portrait

The close-up is better.

Man, I know DeMar DeRozan is hurt by what took place, but he's going to have to get over this eventually. There are worse things in the world than being traded to San Antonio to play for Greg Popovich in the prime of your career and getting to live in a state with no income tax and great weather.

He did the ESPN interview the other day where Chris Haynes kept throwing lobs to him so he could trash Masai and the situation. Now tonight he says he’s done with Masai and won’t be attending his annual charity camps.

He certainly has a right to be upset and wanting nothing to do with a former executive isn’t unusual but man, he’s taking it hard. It was his first time in front of the media since the trade though so maybe he’s gotten it all out and will move on publicly.

There are all these quotes from Demar because he's got ESPN and TSN hounding him for a juicy soundbyte.

Once they get enough whiteboard material, it'll stop and we can move on.

Great weather and Texas. What?

I think he needs to realize loyalty does not exist in the sports world. & to admit that if he was Masai he would have made that same exact trade -- i.e acquiring a top 5 player in his prime.

I'm not a fan of the trade either but time for Demar to move on, accept the trade and the fact he's a Spur now, I'd happily go there if given the chance.

Love the new jerseys.

 

[Terry Yake]

it looks like they're going back to the showtime gold. but other pics make it look like its the same bright yellow they've worn since 99

hopefully its the gold. the showtime look would not look good with the bright yellow but either way, i like that they're going back to the old look

 

[tony d]

Uniform looks good to me. Got to wonder if the Lakers are truly back. IE: Is picking up James enough for them to reclaim their old glory?

 

[Avs_19]

I think the gold and white jerseys look great but the purple ones are terrible because of the black down the side.

 

[dahrougem2]

That purple has to be one of the ugliest jerseys I've ever seen solely due to the black. Get rid of that garbage.

 

[Terry Yake]

yeah that's just awful

way to ruin a beautiful jersey. but considering the way nike has handled being in charge of the jerseys i'm not surprised

i really hope they realize no one likes that BS and go back to the old showtime away jersey

Blake Griffin reportedly ordered to pay $258K a month in child support

Agreed. For more than a quarter mil a month I'll carry his next child!

 

[Vamos Rafa]

What does Teriyaki's post have to do with Blake Griffin paying massive child support, Wrigley?

 

[dahrougem2]

Man, 258k a month... I don't even make 1% of that per month at my current job after taxes.

 

[Terry Yake]

yeah i'm confused too bruh

I mean, how do you screw up Purple and Gold? The Lakers have had many changes on their jerseys over the years, but it's always been the same general design. This almost looks like a third jersey.

the only drastic change since they went to the purp and gold was in 99 when they went to the modern look with bright yellow and then this year when they went back to the old look

aside from that, the only change was pretty much just the color of the numbers

isn't it the same colour scheme from the 80's?

 

[dahrougem2]

I honestly wonder if the Lakers are planning on wearing the whites more often at home and the gold more often on the road. That purple is disastrous
