I've never seen someone get so infuriated as much as Mead on an internet forum.
I would be infuriated if I had to argue with people who had obviously no idea what their talking about wither and who have obviously never played the game

Dont think anyone has posted these yet... Site loads badly on phone so forgive repost if it is.


I never thought I'd say it, but I feel depressed for the Lakers and Celtics looking at this.

Metta looks a natural in the Knicks unifom.

Big Al and Millsap both still looking confused that Utah didn't trade them.

If you want to feel better just think of how many championships they managed to buy and I'm sure you can return to the normal state of loathing, or if you prefer think about the Howard saga and fill yourself with schadenfreude instead?

Spot on about Metta, Calderon probably looks the most at home in his new uniform in my opinion, but holy hell Bynum as a Cav just seems and looks weird.

Yeah, just a matter of time till we start seeing knock-ups of Anthony Davis in a Lakers jersey.

Bit like Gareth Bale in a Real Madrid jersey, right nufan ?

Calderon does look pretty happy. If Dallas still had Chandler, I'd actually rate that signing- would compensate nicely for his deficiencies.

Swaggy P looks positively euphoric.

im sick of big city teams getting all the free agents
It's almost like they get the bigger TV rights deals and can afford to go deeper into the luxury tax... Or in the case of a few states, less tax.

Well LA do love their dominant centers, however for the sake of keeping with modern tradition perhaps he should spend at least 1 season at Orlando first so they can do it to them for a third time? However I don't think their free agent pulling potential will be as high with their current situation and lineup, will need to lure in a star player with the promise of building around him.

I actually think it's a decent pickup, Ellis and Calderon as a pairing has potential in my opinion, lets not forget Calderon has come close a few times to reaching the 50-40-90.

I do not like either of these sentences

Chin up.

At the rate things are going, Richmond might be retroactively awarded several premierships by default for being the highest placed non-PED abusing team in seasons past.

Each ninth really represented finishing first among the non-drug assisted.

I really must be a sucker for punishment, supporting Richmond and supporting NBA teams which seem to constantly get screwed by Stern.

And this is why I have great respect for Richmond fans.

Talk about loyalty through adversity, jeez louise.*

Haha well I used to be one of those who half supported two teams in the NBA, being Hornets and Sonics (not going to lie, mostly NBA Jam made these choices), Hornets moved and changed uniform (which matched my junior bball team) so I kind of lost interest and went to being just Sonics, then Sonics got screwed over, so I lost serious interest and became a half assed Lakers supporter. Decided with Davis drafting and in general not caring about the Lakers beyond Kobe to go back to Hornets and then they changed their name to an animal I am freaking terrified of. :( Right now undecided what the hell to do, I got hopes up for the return of the Sonics and that didn't happen, so unsure whether to wait for the buzz to come back or just pick a team while I wait for a new Sonics.

An understandably safe choice if you were suffering from a severe case of post-Sterned-Stress-Disorder.

Sonics will come back one day.

In the meantime, come over to the dark side..

Yeah odds are despite my disliking of the name I will just stick with NOLA, I doubt I can resist the brow and Vasquez was more than amply replaced. As long as there is one jersey with no reference of a Pelican I may still acquire a Davis jersey. :p
