For starters, I'm not trying to make this a debate about vaccines or a political argument at all...
I'm just curious if anyone knows the vaccination status of our Players.?
We're now hearing reports of Players like Kyrie Irving & Andrew Wiggins that may not be able to play in their Home Arenas due to local mandates.
I'm assuming any non vaccinated Players on other Teams would not be allowed to play in these Arenas either..? Again, I'm not arguing for or against. It is what it is.
I'm just curious if this will be affecting any of our Players...?
The new season is almost upon us and there is lots to look forward to. We have a lot of people who have been members for years but post none or very little. I’d like to invite those members to be more active this year. You don’t have to be a basketball junkie, just somebody who loves the Lakers.
I was a lurker on ClubLakers for years and never joined. When Lakersball started up, I moved my lurking over to this site. I used to have a lot of friends that were Laker fans and we’d go to games or sports bars to watch. People get busy, life happens and I found myself missing out on sharing my fandom with friends. So I finally joined. I love being able to talk to people during the game chat. I’m not a basketball savant and don’t have nearly the knowledge of basketball that people have on this site but I always liked the doom thread and thought that I could help out with that. So that’s my story. What’s yours? What made you or would make you go from ghoster to poster?
Shaq was talking this week about the best to never win a ring (I don't have the link). He made a good case for Allen Iverson. AI was for sure one of the greatest to never win a ring, but I don't think he was the greatest.
Here are some options:
Dominique Wilkins
Charles Barkley
Karl Malone
John Stockton
George Gervin
Tracy McGrady
Reggie Miller
James Harden
Chris Paul
Russell Westbrook (hope he's off this list soon)
Patrick Ewing
Steve Nash
But, my choice is Elgin Baylor.
