LOL at you saying no one is a Laker hater...there's plenty of you who have proven otherwise...it's fine to hate a team it's what sports is about. Just don't make asinine comments because of said hate...

Seriously? Get over yourself, the only reason you're sticking up for Bynum is because its 'your' team.

I'm not condoning what Bynum did

Learn to read....I don't agree with what he did and don't like how he represented the franchise but a year long suspension is asinine and people suggesting it just look like haters who want to punish the Lakers because they're jealous of their recent success....should he get suspended, absolutely. Will he get suspended? Of course, whether it's 5, 10, 15 whatever he will be suspended for a certain number of games and will have to pay a pretty large fine. I really don't get where people are saying he should be suspended for the season. If Bynum should be suspended for the entire season then you're saying that what he did was WORSE then Artest's actions in Detroit....you're not really trying to suggest that are you???

First, no one is a 'Laker Hater' secondly, that was an intentional hit out of frustration just because the little b*tch wasn't winning? He wouldn't dare hit Lebron or someone his own size like that.

He hit Shaq.

First, I'm not a Laker hater, go find a post by me where I said such, you will fail trying to find it.

Second, Artest should have been gone longer, but that event was quite different, they were provoked, things were being THROWN at them, it's Detroit fans, come on, different situation. However, I still think they should have been disciplined more.

And yes, Bynum should have been out a year, at least half a year, 5 games is nothing, NOTHING.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
