    Oh, I was trying to remember what the score was when he got hurt. Was about to look it up.

    I thought the Raiders were up by a lot in a meaningless game when he got hurt. If I am remember that incorrectly my bad.

    There were no meaningless games for the Raiders. It's why we didn't win the division after be got hurt.

    Weren't you guys up by a lot? I remember thinking he didn't need to be out there any longer when he was hurt. Again if I am wrong my bad.

    We were up like 17 points or something at the beginning of the 4th. Nfl qbs don't get pulled during stuff like that. That doesn't happen

    "The Raiders held a 33-14 lead at the time of Carr's injury."

    There was 10 min left in the 4th you guys were up almost 20 Carr shouldn't have been in the game. You guys were trying to run up the score and he got hurt.

    Somehow Lavar Ball talk turned into NFL. He's in all our heads. FML

    It is the norm for nfl qbs to not leave the game with that much time left. Can you cite me different?

    Not really. Just Arkadin refusing to let a point go with his Pit bull posting mentality.

    You guys have a great D. There was no reason for him to be out there. Dropping back to pass up 20 on a 2nd and 22 with 10 to go was also stupid.

    I remember thinking he shouldn't have been out there and iirc commentators also said that and that is why I brought it up in here. You disagree and that is fine I am not going to continue.

    I'm definitely not blaming you, but it's hard to argue that your presence, at times, sends things sideways.

    No one pulls their starting QB up 20 with 10 minutes left in the game unless its a meaningless game going into the playoffs or something. You'd be insane to do that.

    Probably a better way to do it, but read somewhere that the team was specifically built this way and scheduled against tougher teams for Limelo to get abused on the court and learn how to handle getting blasted by social media (handling adversity).

    But who knows. Dad is still an idiot.

    Team was built this way because none of the top players want to play with LiMelo.

    "Built?" More like a bunch of division 2,3 kids decided to enter a tourney with another division 2 type talent, name LiMelo, cause they didn't have anything better to do this weekend.

    in the SI article about the family, apparently lavar made it a point to always have lonzo play with the worst players in pick up games, so it may be dumb but it's not that far fetched

    In the end this entire family is going to be a laughing stock and Lavar has no one but himself to blame. His wife doesn't mouth off, from what i've read his kids don't mouth off but Lavar is systematically setting his two younger kids up for epic failure. Lavar insists the one heading to UCLA next season is a definite one and done. From what i've watched and read he won't get drafted. Mistake 100 in the Lavar era. The youngest one is a straight up gun, and a turnover machine. When he plays against kids of equal talent he gets obliterated and still fires up 30+ shots a game at an awful clip. Showboats with fancy passes that end up in the stands, and arrogant as fuck. This entire saga is destined to crash and burn. Oh and Lavar predicted his kid in the 2017 ucla class will average 28+ a game, easy. No, lavar you aren't setting your kids up for failure. You are setting them up for an epic fall from grace.
