    That was fun. Lebrons dunk at the end was so insane for a 39 year old

  3. Mysterious-Part-8443

    All the nephews hate the IST all of a sudden when they couldn’t stop praising it all week

    Lakers doesn’t need a third star when they have alot of depth. Keep this core and have a run in the playoff

    ā€œKids, we got something to do here.ā€ LOL Adam Silver is a supervillain

    Lakers – 17 championships and 1 NBA cup

    Celtics – 17 championships

    This settles the debate on the best franchise in the history of NBA.

    Congrats, Lakers fans. Surprisingly dominant in the tourney. Made it look easy

    Wow, what an amazing tournament. These November / December games have been phenomenally competitive and intense (for the most partšŸ˜ž). Surely people wonā€™t let their feelings about a certain franchise or player affect their view on this accomplishmentā€™s value. Right?

    That was great! I was mad the Thunder got bounced so early but this is the earliest Iā€™ve watched the NBA season in years so mission accomplished

  12. Lebron leaving Vegas 500k richer? Something Jordan never did

    Undisputed GOAT. How many in season tournaments did MJ win like LeKing? 0

  14. Captain_Lameson

    Clearly the biggest sporting news regarding LA today.

    My favorite part were the announcers talking about how this tournament allows bad teams to have a chance at winning something and it just ends up with the Lakers winning.

    If they can give IST champion playoff incentive such as extra home court game, playoff position advantage, etc, I can see more team try harder to win IST cup.

  17. This whole tournament was a lot of fun in a time in the calendar where nba interest is typically low. Totally great IMO, idk why haters donā€™t like it

    Yeah, that is pretty damn good for the whole concept. A lot of attention especially from potential broadcasters and advertisers.

    The NBA needs this thing to grow. It will probably never become the FA Cup but, if most players love it for the money and compete hard, it will find its place.
