I'm not concerned about the Lakers. Sure, they looked rusty, a little bit slow, and somewhat lost, but they need time to gel. The Heat started out 9-8 when the Big 3 got together and the rest is history. If everything goes according to plan then the Lakers will be all right. Dwight needs to get back into game shape, Nash needs to handle the ball more + learn which spots his teammates will be at, and the team needs to gel. If the Lakers aren't pretty darn good in a month or so then I will start to worry a little bit.

How LeBron and the Heat last nite?

Lakers fans where are you? Yall looked and slow last nite. Jim Buss has turned the Lake Show into a rest home. Beat handily by a Dirkless Mavs at home? Sheeesh. Heat will blow this no bench having squad out!

Well considering this is Miami's third year together, we should expect that right?

& We're still posting? It's not like we'll stop being fans or something.. If I do recall Miami lost there opening game there first year to Boston, correct? Then proceeded to start the season 6-10. But in the end they were 58-24 leaving them at the #2 seed in the East? It takes TIME with all these superstars together. Everyone is learning an entire new system.

Come on bro you're better than this! SMH

Anybodyhome if there where more white americans playing id bet youd love the NBA like you did in the 80s when there were plenty. How ignorant to stereotype an entire league because theres not alot of white guys for you to identify with. Just stick with the amateurs in college, thats more your speed.

Nice. Ignorant ass racist comment considering you have no idea what color I am.

You assume all black people watch the NBA, who's doing the stereotyping when I mentioned nothing about race?

Just stick with discussing something about which you may be the slightest bit educated...but, then again, now I'm assuming you're educated.

This new "Princeton-style" offense for the Lakers doesn't suit Nash. They need to be playing a quicker pace, that's something Nash feeds off of.

Yeah leave the princeton-style offense to the 2nd unit imo. It'd work well enough with Blake, Meeks, Ebanks/Jamison, Gasol/Jamison, Howard out there, or Blake, Meeks, Ebanks/Jamison, Hill, Gasol/Howard. The Princeton was designed for lesser talented / less athletic players to get easier shots. I'm pretty sure that Nash, Kobe, Metta, Gasol, Howard doesn't fit that criteria.

Cousins is such an underrated player. He is one of the most skilled centers in the league.

That sequence right there were he stole the ball and needled the pass to Evans was impressive and you won't see that from many bigs.

Oh yeah Cousins is crazy good. He's a 20/12 guy right now that can get you steals and blocks. He needs to score inside better and stop shooting so many outside jumpers, but he's going to be a stud.

      CMC makes the cover of Madden

      Fug Em!   Lil bastard was milking injuries most of his time here. The moment he leaves he's all of a sudden a workhorse RB and a MVP candidate.   *Poo me up I'm a big boy I can handle it.

      Panthers to work out UFL OPOY Hakeem Butler

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      Another source: NFL Rumors: Hakeem Butler to Visit Panthers After UFL Success, Wade Phillips' Praise ZACH BACHAR JUNE 10, 2024 The Carolina Panthers are expected to conduct a workout with UFL wide receiver Hakeem Butler, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Butler recorded a league-leading 652 receiving yards as a member of the St. Louis Battlehawks. He was previously a fourth-round draft pick by the Arizona Cardinals in 2019. After the Battlehawks were defeated by the San Antonio Brahmas in the XFL Conference title game, Brahmas head coach and longtime NFL coach Wade Phillips told the receiver that "I'm going to tell everybody in the NFL that I talk to that you need to be playing," via Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. Despite the loss by St. Louis, Butler still hauled in six receptions for a team-high 59 receiving yards. The 28-year-old was named the 2024 UFL Offensive Player of the Year, as he was one of only two wideouts to have multiple games with at least 100 receiving yards. While the Panthers added Diontae Johnson and first-round rookie Xavier Legette to their wide receiver room in the offseason, they could still use some depth in the form of Butler. Carolina isn't opposed to picking up former UFL players, as Rapoport revealed on Thursday that the team is also "expected" to sign All-UFL receiver Daewood Davis. Although Butler was selected by the Cardinals in the 2019 draft, he did not play as a rookie due to a hand injury and only appeared in two regular-season games as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020. He did not record a catch. Butler signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2023 offseason, although he ultimately didn't make the team's regular-season roster. At 6'5", he has the frame to potentially make an impact in training camp and earn a shot at making Carolina's 53-man roster. If his workout goes well with the Panthers, Butler could give himself another chance to possibly return to the NFL.
