"Hypnotized"

"Yeah bruh I know, I'm in waaaay over my head!"

Every now and then a boy will completely make a fool out of himself. He’s got a new girlfriend that he’s been with for just about a year and they’re still working the kinks out like most relationships in the early stages. All of a sudden he goes to the club and see’s the ex-girlfriend looking like a straight up dime. So he spends the rest of the night dancing and flirting with her. She’s got him gassed up so bad that he runs home and breaks up with his girl on a might be. Only to find out that the ex wasn’t really interested in the first place. She was just out on the town and enjoying all of the attention.

Well that’s what the Lakers did over the weekend bruh!  They fired Mike Brown thinking that they could get back with Phil only to play themselves and end up having to move in with Mike D’Antoni that wasn’t any better than Mike Brown. I guess the name Mike was good enough. At least that way they don't screw up and call the new woman the wrong name. D’Antoni was the chick at the club that he bumped into a couple of times but never really saw, even though she was trying to get his attention all along. They ended up like ole boy in Harlem Nights when he called the crib after hooking up with Sunshine, "Put ya momma on the phone! Hey baby I ain't never comin' home again!"

They ran into Phil at the club and his resume was looking so good to them that they started flirting. You know how the ex always looks better to you when you aren’t with her anymore. When she moves on the dance floor you get hypnotized primarily because you remember how things used to be. Phil started giving them some rhythm and even sat down and had a few drinks. They started reminiscing about old times and all of the fun they had and ole Jerry & Jim Buss started thinking, “Man I could get back with that and it’s on and poppin’! It’ll be just like old times.”

That’s how boyz think because they’re only looking at how fine she is. They forget all about why they broke up with her in the first place. She became way too demanding because she had options. All you started hearing was that Beyonce’ “To the left” joint playing when she would pull up. Phil was the same way bruh! The Lakers broke up with him in the first place because he wanted too much bread and knew he had the resume to ask for it!

That dun was so cocky about it that he answered the door butt naked with a Merlot in one hand and a Black & Mild in the other and broke down his demands! "For starters, if you want me to even get dressed it's gonna cost you homeboy!"

He was looking for $12 million when they parted ways at the end of the 2011 season. So is it surprising that he was essentially asking for the whole joint to come back? He wanted anywhere from $10-$15 million per year, significant say on all personnel decisions as well as his eventual replacement along with the ability to skip selected road games. In other words he wanted the barn on his terms and he was going to tell them if he was going to travel or not to certain games. Who does that bruh? Sounds like Beyonce‘s been singing in his ear to me! He's been bumpin' the whole album coming at them with that foolishness but that's what cosmetic 10's do! That's why nobody marries them but the rich and famous because they can afford to! You just hang out with them for as long as you can until their next option comes along. Always keep this in mind, dimes are always looking for a better deal bruh! So don't play yourself chasing her and that's what the Lakers did because Phil doesn't NEED the bread but he'll ask for it anyway! That's real talk!!

Now these boyz are stuck with the chick that they’ve walked past every night at the club and never paid attention to. D’Antoni is 388-339 with a .533 winning percentage and is the same dun that quit on the Knicks last year after going 18-24. Now let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! He had a difficult time trying to manage the egos of Mello and Amar’e. If he couldn’t handle those cats how in the world is he going to handle the egos of Kobe, Dwight,  a clown named Metta World Peace and the fact that they aren't even the best team in LA? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Outside of the Yankees, the Lakers are the best run franchise in professional sports and they usually make solid decisions but they completely dropped the ball on this one bruh! I guess that can happen when you run into a beast with 11 titles under his belt and you’re sitting here at 1-4 when you pull the trigger on Mike Brown.

It would have made sense to holla at Brian Shaw in the first place! He already knows the triangle, LA, all of the players and he's a Laker!

However, boyz got greedy and went after the 10 instead of the 8.5 standing next to her cuz the baddest chick is always gonna come at you sideways unless you've got the bread to deal with her!

All they heard was that Biggie coming from Phil’s truck when he pulled up, “I’m going, going back, back to Cali, Cali’ and they thought he was talking about them. Yeah! Good luck with that pimpin' and stop me when I start lyin' bruh!

Holla At Ya Boy!
