    How is he a snitch, even? He didn't leak the video on purpose.

    He is as much of a snitch if he was talking about the matter with Nick on the phone, and the very moment Iggy would pass him by.
    Unfortunate accident + moron of a person (Nick) + stupid 19 years old (DAR) = current situation

    In today's culture, what D'Angelo did makes him a snitch regardless of how the video saw the light of day. Simply recording the video made him the snitch that everyone sees him as.

    A celebrity/athlete marriage didn't work out?! No way, those are usually rock solid and last a lifetime!

    Basketball-wise, I think Nick can give us some value this year under Luke. I have a feeling we will strikeout in the KD/Deng/Batum sweepstakes. There's some big minutes to be had at the 3 spot while we wait for Ingram to grow into the position.

    i would have agreed with you last year, but young is just someone that i think needs to be kept away from young players. he can play the jr smith role on a team with steady veteran leadership, but he can't be an elder statesman. that's a recipe for disaster.

    I am not denying that, but it doesn't forgive their transgressions. If they're going to sleep around, then be single while they do it.

    Id say their spouses knew that already going into the relationship, maybe im cynical but majority of these spouses wouldn't give these guys time or day if they weren't rich, famous athletes....hell id say most of the wife's purposely put them selves out there only for these type of guys

    That's not really the point. I'm not saying anything positive or negative about their spouses. I'm saying cheating on your spouse is not cool and I don't care how famous or rich you are. I don't care if your spouse is also cheating on you. The right move is to be single.

    You Guys know they weren't married yet right?

    I don't say that to e vise anything, but the way things were worded made me think people thought they were married.

    Still cheating if you are dating or engaged.

    I know they're not married, but my message stays the same. Don't be with someone unless you can be true to that person. If he wants to enjoy the many women he can sleep with as a famous young person, who am I to judge? But if that's the case then don't be in a relationship with someone.

    Depends on your arrangement. Either don't do it or have an understanding. He failed either way.

    ...unless you are Andre Kirilenko who reportedly had a one time pass every year. On topic: I think Young's time as a Laker is over. We already have Williams as a bona fide scoring threat off the pine.

    I suppose there is no hurry to do anything, but if we successfully sign SF's, I don't see a role for him. Last year's numbers were horrible - even if Byron was coach.

    After reading both Iggy's and Nick's "statements" on their breakup, I want the Lakers to trade Nick. The dude is 31 and still acts like he's 15. Anyways, we already have another bench scorer in Lou, plus we'll be drafting Ingram and SFs won't be hard to find in FA

    I did think they had already gotten married for some reason, but to me engaged is pretty much the same as married. You've committed to that person, to spend your life with them, you've chosen to be with them alone. Obviously it's not the same in that you can just call it off if cheating happens or they turn abusive or something, but cheating while engaged is still much closer to cheating while married than cheating while newly dating or something. I think it's wrong in all cases, break up first if you want other women/men.

    Wonder if he saw the Russ commercial
    :Crazyartest:

    How long before he can be stretched or waived or bought out, or traded for a 3rd round pick in 2050?
