HBO stays blessing us

Between being a basketball and HBO fan this shyt is

 

[MikelArteta]

dope so far

the opening scene intense as hell imagine waiting for your hiv result

 

[Luke Cage]

woulda never let Norm do him like that

Mike didn't have any allstars on his team when he was a rookie. although honestly, i can't really picture anybody doing him like that regardless. maybe if he was drafted by the Knicks and was facing prime Bernard King in 1 on 1. would've been close

Norm Nixon getting forgotten because he got exiled to the Clips and Worthy and Byron Scott came up after him to fill in the gaps is fukked up. I hope he gets the love he deserves in this series.

I feel somewhat that way about Jamaal Wilkes, too. He gets forgotten, but he deserves more love. Hope he gets it in this series.

Breh …you know that’s how he was

 

[Edub]

Yeah this is shaping up to be one of the HBO goats. Which means TV goats. Dude corny to beef with his OG friend and business partner over.

It’s betrayal in his eyes….and with his other best friend at that….I don’t think he should beef either, but it’s so personal I don’t think we can really understand

 

[Edub]

whats the story with Will? He was attached to the project, dipped because of “creative differences” + casting issues, went his own way and now the show is about to be a hit so he’s dropping subliminal?

Idk…I just heard he wanted the role of buss and was mad about his biz partner (former) givin the role to someone else (his homie of all people and I think found out from him) … and that that bball movie he did with three stacks made him feel suitable for the role and the logical choice… he feel like McKay shytted on him because he let it be known that was something he wanted to do… an 80’s lakers expose’

I don’t know how accurate his portrayal is, but I’m cracking up at every scene he’s in! Definition of having the “red ass” about everything!

HBGoat with another one

 

[Gus Money]

First episode was cool, maybe it will grow on me as the season progresses. I’m just not sure why this wasn’t a movie or a miniseries.

I’m just not sure why this wasn’t a movie or a miniseries.

No way you could fit the 80's Lakers into a movie, even a miniseries.

Great casting for Magic and Jerry Buss. John C Reilly is my dude.


Angry Jerry West

 

[pickles]

This is amazing!!! I love the way it is filmed.

The thread needs to be way longer!!
Need to merge with the sports one.

I don't know shyt about the Lakers, so I for one love the voiceovers.

at Magic's humble beginnings.


I could not see Will Ferrell as Buss, I will always see Will Ferrell and not the character.

This shyt is going to cleanup at the Emmys.

I remember being maybe 4-5 years old at the airport watching a little Cac jump up and down chasing Kareem Abdul Jabbar for an Autograph… Dude flatly out said no rudely and I was confused .. I get it now though.
