		<description><![CDATA[You keep on insisting that it is about this season when we trot out those banners. Obviously you have a reading impediment. Explaining it to you is like pulling teeth from a monkey.

Paul, an argument can be based on opinions from both sides for as long as it is rational. Goodness, opinions can be based on facts but not the other way around.

Let me repeat bird brain, and try to counter this argument. Hell, let&#039;s remove those 5 Minneapolis titles and remove your 11 of 13.

You conveniently dodged this one, paul. Remember this?

&quot;Hey doofus, what’s your empirical proof that the majority of the fanbase that you’re dissing is actually what you’re saying. What you got IS JUST YOUR DELUSIONAL PERCEPTION.

Compared to all NBA teams, which team has been the most consistent in winning, titles included?

8 in a row and 11 out of 13 during years when Martin Luther King Jr’s presence and cause were very significant? A time when you got a number of NBA teams the total of probably two divisions in the present league?

No, you shut the hell up.

Get a lobotomy. You need it, gluteswipe.&quot;

Your 11 out of 13 came at a time that there was no equal opportunity for everyone to join the NBA. How many Magics, Jordans, Kobes, LeBrons, and Durants do you think didn&#039;t make it during that era? The likes of Chamberlain and Russell were exceptions and not regular occurrences.

How come the Celtics or any other NBA team for that matter can&#039;t produce championship teams of the same make up given that there is now equal opportunity for everyone?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[spt: Won?! ahahaha!!! Who &quot;wins&quot; an internet argument? An argument based on opinions?! Thanks for the laugh, dope.

Past titles are all well and good, hell the Celtics have 17. It&#039;s just that most logical fans don&#039;t feel the need to trot them out when the going is tough(like being 4games under .500 and in 10th place.)
(Or when a team is 1-8 in its last two season ending playoff series).

Why can&#039;t you just accept that your team stinks? Why must you revert to titles that are going on 3 years old and older? 5 of which were won I&#039;m Minneapolis?

It&#039;s about THIS season. If its not? 17&gt;16.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Um, who are you gonna trade to get Irving?  Earl Clark?  This is why Lakers fans are called delusional.  They are due for a bottoming out.  Haward is no franchise centerpiece but a very good complimentary player.  If he&#039;s your franchise player you are screwed.  Let them go the lottery route.  They may be better in the long run.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I felt the same way.  Before DH and Nash, I thought the Lakers were doomed to a 1-and-done or maybe exiting in the 2nd round (for the 3rd straight year).  With them, I thought they had a chance to contend, but certainly didn&#039;t consider them favorites, even in the Western Conference.  I don&#039;t think that is delusional, I think that is accurate.

The only person who I heard say it was a lock was Ron Metta World Artest Peace.  And his lucidity is extremely questionable.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[exactly, Foul. well said.

do Laker fans know this season is going bad? of course we do. doesn&#039;t mean i stop rooting for my team. the whole delusional talk is ridiculous. Laker fans have a lot to be proud of...a rare bad season does not change that.

 soooo...if we were to take what they say to heart and go by that philosophy...that means at the beginning of the (every) season: to have no expectations, not care about prized FA&#039;s coming to the team, disregard what Vegas put great odds of you winning, disregard past (recent) success, etc????who does that? i am a fan. i support my team. i go to these particular Laker sites because i support my team. now...for the guys who come here to troll or whatever...well, i don&#039;t share that paradigm of living...its wasteful.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You can kiss off any chances for the Lakers to make the playoffs now, best thing that could happen now is to lose every game until Dumbtoni is fired and Trash Nash and Steve Flake get traded away for a real good young point guard like Kyrie Irving.  Pau should opt for surgery and the long term recovery rather than rush back and chance an even worse injury.  So sad that Pau was playing his best this season when he goes down to injury.

This is the karma that that little idiot buss boy has brought down on our beloved Lakers.  I&#039;m glad the little idiot buss boy has to suffer the ignominy of such a horrid season but he needs to have his own hubris rubbed in his nose.  We can only hope that Daddy Buss wakes up and fires his worthless devil spawn so he can reward his faithful daughter Jeanie with the wedding present of running the Lakers with her new husband Phil Jackson.

I&#039;m sure that Dumbtoni is jumping with glee that he now gets to run his worthless losing small ball garbage.  I hope the Celtics wipe the Lakers off the court tonight to begin the run of losses that get Dumbtoni fired.  Total sacrilege to root for the C&#039;s to beat my beloved Lakers but getting rid of Dumbtoni is the most important thing to accomplish the remainder of the season.

Fire Dumbtoni!!!  Get Well Soon Gasol!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spin it any way you like. One only has to type in a name on google, like so-

Read the comments to the articles dated at the time of the trades. 95% of the fanbase was saying the title was the lakers.

I dont care when the Celtics did it, it was still done. Bulls of Jordan years are the closest anyone came. It isn&#039;t easy to do in any era, and for you to scoff at the timeframe only shows your envy and bias.

I didn&#039;t place my Celtics in the finals in preseason. I so did not take joy in Paus injury, I took joy in the fact that he&#039;s a laker, and your detestable fanbase deserves any misery heaped upon them.

.Keep dusting off the trophies, you STILL don&#039;t have as many as Boston.

Lakers will always be the Celtics little brothers, always.

As I stated, the smarmy &quot;we deserve greatness&quot;attitude, the putting down of small market teams, it all adds up.

Your fanbase deserves about 10 years of bad basketball. Just think of all the time you would have to talk about those banners that have zilch to do with the current team!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now D&#039;antoni gets his chance to small ball run and gun. At least Jamison will get a decent run now. I think this injury actually increases the chances of a Gasol trade, not the opposite. He seems to be very injury prone and it may be time to move him on even if it wont be a like for like deal.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Of course it doesn&#039;t. We all know that. It&#039;s stupid people like you who think that we think that way. I don&#039;t recall telling myself that 

When we take pride on the banners this franchise has, we are talking about its collective greatness, compared to your pathetic franchise that hasn&#039;t even gotten any. Won&#039;t you feel good about your franchise if you had our banners instead?

If anything, Lakers fans generally perceive the team to be contenders and not doormats. Can you blame them when the franchise has been CONSISTENT THROUGH THE DECADES? Why blame us when many of us were elated to know that Nash and Howard were going to be wearing purple and gold? I bet other teams and their fanbase would like their chances if they had these two in their roster as well. Its hypocrisy to say otherwise. Doesn&#039;t even matter if Nash won&#039;t be a starter for other teams. He has still something to bring on the table.

Gadz, you haters are really stupid. Really. It&#039;s amazing to know that you can use the internet and make it this far to even make a post.]]></description>

8 in a row and 11 out of 13 during years when Martin Luther King Jr&#039;s presence and cause were very significant? A time when you got a number of NBA teams the total of probably two divisions in the present league?

No, you shut the hell up.

		<description><![CDATA[Helin proving his worthlessness again.  Why should it (drastically) matter if Gasol is out for six weeks when you talk about him being traded?  Bogut was done for the season last year (with career in question) when the Warriors gave away Monta Ellis and Udoh to get him.  Most who would take Gasol either want him for the playoffs this year, or to have a nice piece to rebuild with for next year.  Trading for Pau is still practical on both counts.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Aaaaand there it is mytthor! Let&#039;s trot out the trophies won in years past when the current team is sub .500.The last one was won going on 3 years ago.
This is why your fanbase is detested. You don&#039;t win the title in any given year, the response is &quot; we got 16 in the rafters&quot;

Nobody cares!  Those titles have nothing to do with the current season.

This is exactly why I say it couldn&#039;t happen to a better fanbase, you 70 win predicting, the title is ours before a single game is played, homeristic, over the top, know nothing fanbase.

By the way, if you want to talk old titles, 17&gt;16.  Win 8 in a row and 11 out of 13, then get back to us...until then, shut the hell up.
Your fanbase bought and paid for the abuse being given to you.]]></description>
