Wow, can this really be true?

That isn't too surprising to me, depending on how they classify 'gear'. The ones that might look shocking are the places with NBA teams, but Texas, Florida, and NY are all split between 2-3 teams. So Jordan stuff probably still outsells any of their individual teams.

On Westbrook hamstring injury:

Westbrook thinks he got hurt because he came off the bench? I’d just cut bait on that guy so fast if I’m LA. Send him to some tanking team that will let him jack up 20 shots a game and shoot 38%. Charlotte comes to mind…They could literally have 100 million in cap space next summer if they send Hayward/Rozier for Westbrook.

Please stop helping the lakers. It’s unbecoming.

I believe it. But don’t even send any juju their way.

I think they’re beyond the help they need…nothing is going to get them to contention status

I'd still prefer not to think about or hear suggestions on how to "fix" them.

Sounds like the lakers are really in our heads

And yet Pelinka got an extension. You would think LeBron could've made him bring in a shooter or two if he was concerned about it--especially since he had to negotiate an extension himself this summer.

Hey, who are we to take away from your Laker fandom? We let Marty fanboy about the Warriors too.

And I come to the around the league thread to put down the Lakers. But that's just me.

Well maybe you need to read my post again if you think it was a Laker fandom post

Dude, I'm just giving you an old fashioned ribbing. LOL. It's all good.

Ex-Warrior and Villanova guy...undersized hustle big. Always liked his game as a backup, surprising he was on a 2way with Minnesota. I'd pick him up for some depth in the frontcourt.
