Live from Southern California. This is the Jim Rome Show.

Do you remember when the Lakers wanted and demanded all that smoke? Remember when AD said,

AD said, quote, we can't wait, end of quote,

to get the nuggets back for all the talking they did after they swept the lake show out the Western Conference

finals.

Do you remember that?

I do.

I think everybody does, except for the Lakers. They don't seem to remember any of that. I mean,

hell, it was only three days ago that Darvin Ham fired off the coolest line that he

has ever dropped as the Lakers head coach.

We with all the smoke and we ain't ducking no fades.

They all seem to agree with him too, right?

Didn't they?

They all seem to agree with him. And I'll say it, that's a great line for the ham. That's his best line since arriving in LA. We want all the smoke and we ain't ducking no fades. Great line.

Gotta hand it to the ham.

Pretty straightforward too.

They want the nuggets.

They want all the smoke. They ain't ducking no fades. They want all that smoke from the defending champs.

Good line dude.

One problem, Ham.

Maybe you should have checked with La Cap before you went with that, because I'm not sure you and

La Cap are on the same page. I'm not sure you and La Cap are ever on the same page about anything at all.
