Laimbeer made me hate them all even those that didn't deserve it.I hated him, especially when he had that cocky little smile
New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season
- Thread starter Ron Party
- Start date
Laimbeer is one of a kind. His take downs and body slams were intentional. The earliest dirty player I can recall. Too bad, his only positive side was he was the first big to shoot 3s.
During that era, in the playoffs, few had nerves to shoot 3s (all star 3s are no pressure - Bird won 3 straight times), one of the few 3 shooters was Michael Cooper, himself a nemesis of Bird. He was the Dennis Johnson of the Lakers. Lol.

Date of unveiling the bronze is 02/8/24 signifying the 2 numbers ( 8 and 24) that he wore as a player.
The Lakers said in another post that the statue will be unveiled Feb. 8, 2024. The date honors the two jersey numbers he wore for the franchise, 8 and 24. It also is a tribute to Gianna, who wore No. 2 when she played youth basketball

I hope this guy proves me wrong and that this isn't just another pre-season thing of his. So much potential. Sigh.
On another note, , Tyrese Halliburton is really impressing me at the FIBA Worlds. There may be hope for my Pacers yet Hahahaha

Not, Steve. Our team is winless. Home fans very disappointed. My son and friends want to see the USA championship game, if they go that far, but tickets are horribly expensive.
38,000 home fans went home disappointed after the Philippine team lost of Karl Anthony Towns and the Dominican Republic.
