Are they mad at [you] and the Lakers?

“I’ve heard that they are. We haven’t had those conversations. We had a little game to think about tonight.”

-Kobe Bryant

[sagr32]

I really don't care.
-Kevin Durant
:kobe:

-Kevin Durant
:kobe:

Come on man. If ever there was a time to use this :durantunimpressed: it's now.

[B-Low]

"Wait...what?"

- Iggy

[Kappy]

I don't see why they'd be mad at Kobe. It was totally out of his control. STUPID!!

[SpecialQue]

:biggums:

--Iggy

[Kappy]

At least Kobe didn't collude with Howard to bring him here ..... unlike others that we know!

[EnoughSaid]

What do you expect Durant to say though? "OMG dey gon b so good! I'm scared!" ?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

"Wait...what?"

- Iggy

[KG215]

I don't really care
-Kevin Durant

Like a boss.

I'm sure they had talked about it, but that wasn't the main cause of him going to Miami. Riley's pitch of winning multiple titles in Miami was the biggest reason.

And I don't care how many titles you have. It doesn't add anything to your argument. It just makes you look more like a bandwagon Lakers fan.

No, the puddle at his feet said it for him :roll: :roll: :roll:

In no way, shape, or form is Kobe involved in any howarddom

:durantunimpressed:

"I mean they're good. They don't impress me though, Shaq's lakers were better. We're still the team to beat"

[dajadeed]

most telling quote:


"We joked around a little bit about it during the summer. The consensus was that there is no way we can get Dwight and still keep Pau, and they all love Pau for us. It was like, 'No way you're going to let Pau go, so therefore you can't get Dwight.' I was like, 'Well, I think we can make that happen.' "

Even the players on team USA know what's up. :applause:

Only a tard could sit here and deride a group of players forming a superteam while claiming that one being formed by players forcing trades to a specific team and screwing their former teams into accepting pennies on a dollar is somehow more admirable.

[no pun intended]

"It makes the NBA that much more exciting," Knicks forward and U.S. Olympian Carmelo Anthony said.

Durant will still drop 40 in his sleep against the lakers shoddy perimeter d

Durant will still drop 40 in his sleep against the lakers shoddy perimeter dGreat. We at least want some competition on our way to #17

[RRR3]

Great. We at least want some competition on our way to #17
I wouldn't get too cocky. Okc is a good matchup against Lakers and Miami had the best player in the world by far on their team.

I wouldn't get too cocky. Okc is a good matchup against Lakers and Miami had the best player in the world by far on their team.LOL I was joking. We're in for two great series next year in OKC/LA and Heat/LA. Yes the Lakers will beat both of them. :D

:facepalm

A couple Laker losses against the Thunder were REAL close, and that was with a vastly shittier team. Let's not pretend that every game the Lakers lost against the Thunder was a double-digit blowout.

[Rubio2Gasol]

Artest and Kobe are old but Shoddy D?

:biggums:

[amfirst]

LOL going to be fun going against OKC and the Heats. OKC and the Heats are still the team to beat. Let see how this Lakers team looks on court before we rush to judgement.

"What do you think of Dwight Howard going to the Lakers?," Fallon asked Durant and Harden in a giddy and excited tone many would hear from Lakers fans.

Durant shrugged his shoulders. Harden turned and slightly laughed. Awkward silence ensued. Crickets chirped.

"So you don't care?" Fallon asked, incredulously. "Come on! That's major. The Lakers are getting a crazy team."

"Good for them," Harden simply said.
