Danny Green’s Laker Lovefest…
Hold onto your high-tops, folks, because veteran baller Danny Green has declared the Los Angeles Lakers as ‘America’s Team’—and it’s sending shockwaves through the basketball universe like a slam dunk from outer space! Danny boy, previously causing chaos with the Raptors, found himself in the glitzy gold of the Lakers’ jersey, adding a third championship ring to his bling collection in 2020. From Toronto to Tinseltown, Danny didn’t quite expect the tidal wave of adoration from Lakers Nation when he signed up. Like a ball soaring for a 3-pointer that just can’t miss, Green felt instant love everywhere he went—even from places more remote than Bigfoot’s backyard.
Now picture this: Danny, casually traveling through the universe, is suddenly mobbed by Lakers fans as if he’s a rockstar moonwalking across an intergalactic stage. He describes them as being everywhere, like popcorn at a playoff game—popping up when least expected. Even in a city as random as a snowstorm in summer, he heard fans shout, “Yo! Thanks for joining the Lakers!” It’s no wonder he calls them ‘America’s Team,’ echoing the mighty Dallas Cowboys in team devotion!
Playing with LeBron James comes with its own brand of Hollywood pressure that’s heavier than a basketball packed with bowling balls, Green admits. Yet, like a wizard reading playbooks by moonlight, LeBron makes the magic happen, setting players up for slam-dunk success. The lights shine brighter in the Lakers’ kingdom, but boy, does it make victory taste like victory pie with extra triple-dip sprinkles. As Green’s said, adjusting to that Blinding-By-The-Lights Lakers’ glimmer isn’t easy – even for basketball sorcerers like Luka and Russ!
