The young Lakers team had a lot of promising pieces that he could have developed but ... he decided on Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony and the perpetually injured Anthony Davis. His behavior actually reminds me of late-stage Kobe Bryant, who was perpetually injured but still demanding that players get traded if they looked at him funny. Also MJ on the Wizards, when he was apparently so hated that people didn't even get him a goodbye present when he retired. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/109/#findComment-7354845

Carey March 25, 2022 Share March 25, 2022 Many people will argue or discuss what went into the decision, what the real motive was for, and who made the call overall. It did seem to come outta nowhere, but as mentioned, the plans to ease restrictions were there for sometime. This was being discussed even though it appeared the mayor changed his mind out of nowhere. I don't care for Kyrie's position on the vaccine, but on the court, whenever he plays or played, he's been pretty good this year. It's likely good for business, not just for the owners but for the workers within the sports (Yankees included) for your team to be at the max and probably win and advance (postseason time) as much as possible. The decisions one way or another each have their own pros and cons. The NFL eventually went to a stance on only removing people if they're showing symptoms, and I guess there was an argument that it should apply to Kyrie as well.

It’s a weird term that has kind of been thrown around to just label people. But we grew up with Chinese medicine and naturopathic doctors. With that upbringing, coming into this situation I felt like I had a solid foundation of medical resources that could serve me beyond what this vaccine could do for me. “As things escalated and as this situation has played out, I’ve obviously had to reconsider and look at it differently. To that point, it got to the point last year during the playoffs where I did actually consider getting vaccinated and went through with getting the first shot, the first dose. At that point, I was under the impression that getting vaccinated meant that I could not get the disease and transmit it to other people. And I felt like if I’m going to be a part of society, in the position I’m in, I need to do what’s right for the greater good. That argument of the greater good held a lot of weight for me. As things progressed, as this virus has changed many different ways, it just showed through the science that that wasn’t the case anymore — that even while being vaccinated, you could still spread the disease. “So for me and my reasoning, it felt like getting vaccinated was not something that I needed to do to protect other people. … With that being considered and the holistic background of my upbringing — and just the way I view medicine in general — it felt like I was secure in treating myself … not treating myself, but going to the doctors that I have to treat COVID if I did get it.

That, and getting younger helps Russell Westbrook has 47 Million reasons to stay with the Lakers. And they don't have a draft pick this year in the upcoming NBA Draft. I wonder how the Lakers are even going to try to get rid of Russell Westbrook in the offseason. I'm sure that Magic Johnson is willing to help the Lakers try to get rid of him.

mojoween April 13, 2022 Share April 13, 2022 Magog, are you really Woj in disguise? Woj was giving a Golden State update and he said that Steph will need to scrimmage against “these Warriors” and now I feel like we found Woj’s burner account. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/109/#findComment-7397812
emma675 April 13, 2022 Share April 13, 2022 (edited) Supposedly Luka has a calf strain, but the Mavs are being vague about his return saying there is no set "timetable." He was seen at practice yesterday being treated and watching the team. And I read a story yesterday that claims the Nets are already growing frustrated with Simmons. Several players calling him out in practice and coaches irritated with the way he supposedly struts around the facilities even though he has yet to play. I don't know if I believe the story, but given Simmons' history it wouldn't surprise me.

Yeah, color me not shocked and in total belief of those reports. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/109/#findComment-7397999

As for those Warriors, with or without Steph, they should have absolutely not much of a problem in beating up on the Nuggets. Its not like the Nuggets have much of a chance against those Warriors. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/109/#findComment-7398110
Lady Whistleup April 13, 2022 Share April 13, 2022 Anthony Edwards is like the player everyone thought Zion would be. He's fun to watch. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/109/#findComment-7398121
LexieLily April 14, 2022 Share April 14, 2022 Here's hoping Boston beats the crap out of Brooklyn in four or five games. KD and Kyrie had to play perfect games for them to barely beat Cleveland in the play-in. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/109/#findComment-7400383
