**Austin Reaves fans are delusional, he has consistently shown that he isn’t a playoff performer, choking against the Nuggets several times and getting exposed on defense again last year by Anthony Edwards and Donte.**
My Lakers aren’t going anywhere this year unless they trade him. He’s going to get outplayed by the young Spurs players now and in the future, as well as by this Thunder team.
Stans of anything and anyone in general usually take things wayyy too far
When people give stupid takes you get stupid responses.
Fuck around, find out.
Cousins is a very entertaining host. You gotta be a special kind of dumb to issue any death threats regarding basketball opinions.
The Lakers **should** let Bron go, trade AR (not necessarily right now), trade Rui, give up Ayton, and completely retool around Luka. Absolutely.
If they don’t, they’ll keep getting beat by deep teams with young, athletic defenders.
Half-measures won’t be enough.
If you have a big enough platform, you will encounter the mentally unstable no matter what.
I’ve also received the most hostile DMs for daring to criticize Luka, just by participating on this sub. Now imagine a former player with a much bigger platform supported by a gambling company (which attracts gamblers, not the most stable of people too).
It’s the internet, you get death threats posting a picture of a cat. But hey this is the man who threatened to murder his baby mama over the phone so he probably knows more about death threats than us
Last time i heard cousin is an arse on and off the court. What a bum
People are crazy. There is no defending death threats.
I think part of the problem is though that shows like FanDuel TV constantly underrate Austin because he’s undrafted and he’s white. It’s a recipe for bad picks. Basically on TV, all they can ever say is trade X for this to get better. They are never realistic trades. It’s just ways to fill the airwaves.
You make some dumbass suggestions that’s why Boogie. You’re by no means a talent evaluator and one of those who thought Austin’s ceiling was 3 years ago
There’s Stans that are too young to be using the internet lol
