I feel the need to confess: I was a Laker fan during the 80s. Hey, I grew up in Missouri. The Hawks were long gone and we cared about the Kings so much they’re now in Sacramento. So during the 80s, it was either the Lakers or the Celtics. My favorite player was James Worthy.

I dunno. I just think he sucks in general. We should probably release him
