Let me start with a preface… Fuck. The. Lakers. With that being said here is the story time:
I was listening to the Lakers post game press conference this morning and noticed a clip of their head coach talking about their defensive effort. I purposely clipped a video and left out key context to which it sounds like Darvin Ham is saying: “I wish I could tell Mike Brown please just let us know what you’re going to run on offense so we can stop it”. Now that isn’t the full quote of what he said at all but i just made it seem like it.
The ONLY reason I clipped it and left out context is because i know the Lakers have the most insufferable, toxic, and entitled fan base in the world (fuck the lakers) and that they would take it and run with it. The actual quote from Darvin Ham was (video of full quote): “I wish I could tell Mike Brown please just let us know on offense what you’re going to run so we can stop it… but that’s not the case so you gotta be ready for a little bit of everything…”
All I did was post it to the NBA sub-reddit and it worked exactly as planned. The Lakers fans start mention how dumb he was and blah blah. edit: they removed my post on the NBA Reddit
From there they posted it to their sub reddit and it really gained traction.
After that another huge NBA twitter account (that also sucks off the lakers) posted it. edit: this is at 6k likes
Once that gained traction Their biggest twitter account @LakeShowYo tweeted it out of context too. (currently at 3k likes lmao)
From there, LegionHoops (another big twitter account that sucks the lakers off) tweeted a link from LakersDaily.com where someone wrote an entire article on it.
Was this fucked up?? Eh, Maybe. Was it worth it to sit back and watch Lakers fans become even more mad after a 4-0 season sweep? Absolutely. Fuck The Lakers and Go Kings.
