There's never a guarantee of a championship - the Lakers have almost as many heartbreaking playoff losses as they do rings.
After 6 years of utter futility, however, I'm celebrating the fact that the teams that clowned us in recent years are now looking up at us!
I will not apologize for being glad about it!

| One might argue that 25 (after tonight) of 82 games into the season isn't "still early". |

Good point. That’s why I said Relatively early. It’s a decent sample size, no question. But a 10 game stretch of a team getting hot can change a team’s numbers pretty quick. That was the point I was making, in the end |

When we clinch the championship, I'm taking the Mrs. to my favorite restaurant (it's open), have a $110.00 steak and a $200.00 shot of scotch.

I miss restaurant food. So tired of my grilled chicken. |

Damn, I love whisky, but not sure there's any shot worth $200. Is this like a 30 year old Macallan or something. |

A real Lakers-fan doesn't boast and certainly doesn't celebrate anything else than a 'chip, buddy. Just keep your cool and smirk arrogantly whenever one of those doofus friends of yours wants to talk b-ball with you. They're not worth your time, they're not on your level intellectually. If they were, they would be Lakers-fans, too, right?
The moment we sweep Giannis in the finals is when I will rise from my couch, tip my hat to the team, light a cigar, take a sip of some good ol' whiskey, and enjoy the moment for a couple of minutes. And once the glass is empty it's back to smirking arrogantly and ignoring people until we win the next one. That is the Laker way, baby. |
Heh heh heh. |

Actually, the chanting is a compliment!  |
I used to hate hearing other fans chant Beat LA until I heard Chick explain that we are the only team in the league that has a chant like that. It is a compliment. |

Mostly I’m not a big fan of digging up old posts just to say “told you so” but this guy was just so condescending that I’m cool with it. |

He was obviously a Lakers hater. I think he got banned. |

First choice is Bourbon Steak in Glendale, but the wife thinks the seating is too close during COVID-19.
At this point, Nick & Stef's or STK.
