A fresh new basketball season for the Knicks to suck in.

If I have friends in LA, visit there as often as anywhere out of state, have business there, and root for a franchise that has supplied you with your best player – do I have sufficient “minimum contacts” to be a Lakers fan?

Man. Nothing says funny like civil procedure.

Yeah. We suck. Blow. Inhale. Swallow. Have a West Coast road trip! Hopefully all the helpful SDMB posters west of the Ole Miss (we’z them’s bitchz), Big M, Mighty Mouse, whatever, can provide additional accounts and descriptions of how much the Magic are not, eh, good.

If it’s team chemistry, I suspect something involving genetic engineering. Island of Dr. Morose Jump Shot. Let me spot up at about 18 feet. It’s that bad. I, at least, practice shooting – minimum – once a month at the local court. I think the players want Doc out. Look for a big rebound, heh, when he’s gone.

Or more, what was it, sucktitude? I like sucktillating.

“best player,” inter alia, et seq, jus ad bellum, fellatio.

Shaw, Grant – those guys still around? Yes, I’m reaching. I cannot root for a team to get the highest lottery pick. [sub]Hey, wait, that used to work.[/sub] Did I ever mention that I’m a better judge of low post talent than the guy that actually does that for the Magic? Not a good sign, long-term. I do RULE the HS and middle school kids I play against. You know, hard fouls, intimidation. :wink:
