Which book do you work for? Because there's absolutely no way you bet on these picks you write these thesis papers for.

After looking through your previous posts, you win less than 40% of these picks. So no way you actually bet because you'd have no money left.

Your purpose is to draw much needed action away from the side books are massively overexposed to??

I didnt realize Lonzo was this impoetant to their back court and overall rebounding...this slump coinciding with Lonzo being out is only malijg his dad Lamar that more excited to renegotiate their contract with Magic...looks like Lakers are officially in tankmode for the #1 pick (however i dont even know if its tjeirs or if someone else owns it from a previous trade)...what a dumpster fire this team has become...

Dear Magic: consider players with less tatts, more talent...but better still, look to get all around decent human beings. To me, this squad is headed down a very dark road as currently assembled amd only the King LBJ could resurrect them instantly to semi-finalists in tje conference (obviously to lose to the Warriors if they are still together)

Dont worry aboit the haters here Scal for one random pick...your history speaks for itself to all of us know appreciate your time and effort to share your thoughts and write ups.

Just to add, i think the kid Josh Hart is special...whenever he plays good things happen for the Lakers...hes a winning player and always brings energy off the bench, i think he has a little "Allen Iverson" quality to his game...Walton is a nice guy and wants his millenials to like him, so he plays practically the entire bench...which is a mistake in my opinion....he should be playing Randle Kuzma Ball Clarkson Ingram Hart and Nance Jr max minutes, and leave Caldwell Pope, Brewer and Bogut on the bench as cheerleaders.

Obviously none of this season really matters, because its all or bust next summer in the Lebron sweepstakes....if they dont get him though, yikes....what an epic failure in assembling an NBA basketball roster....not even Magic Johnson will be able to spin this disaster favorably.

I want to feel bad for you but this is a regular occurrence on here.

I think your angle was poor, to cap based off a team hitting rock bottom is awful.

I know you like extravagant write-ups and it gathers peoples attention but it didn't take some deep angle to cap this game.

Good luck on the rest of your write-ups, ill keep reading forsure in hopes of some good information - thats what the forum is about, but this one was just awful, and I mean no disrespect from that.

The angle was a good one and should be used conservatively. (Rewinds, if it was such a bad angle why did it hit one game later to a team I said it could. I jumped in the water a game early because of the line.)

The Lakers are crushing tonight as expected. That’s the risk you take.

Trolls no need to bother bashing. It doesn’t concern me anymore.

Obviously Ranger saw the value. Nice play. Bum Aussie

(And Dave, the Zubac joke is a half year old. Find some new material will ya?)

Not old at all...Needed to wait till you had a play on the Fakers to prove my point to you last season that Zubac meant nothing to the Lakers..He is a D league player and will not even be on their roster next season.

Nicely done Johnny. Good that you saw the value and didn’t give up on the angle.

Dave it’s funny that you keep harping on this Zubac issue while you make yourself look bad.

Because last year, your point to prove Zubac meant nothing was to say Tariq Black was of equal value.

So while you wait for Zubac to go to the D league while he’s still ON the Lakers (ie, he’s valued as a roster spot), know that Tariq Black is no longer even ON the team (ie, so which player meant nothing again?).

Nice argumentation there. You really won us all over!
