Spencer Dinwiddie has provided an interesting explanation as to why he chose to sign with the Lakers over the Mavs. Dinwiddie compared the two teams to being parents, with Dallas being the mother and Los Angeles being the father. “I’ll give y’all something funny that I told my people because I’m fairly candid,” Dinwiddie said. “The two situations kinda felt like this, right? Let’s say you were a kid, and you got your ass whooped by the bully. Dallas would’ve been like your momma being like, ‘It’s OK, baby. Don’t worry about it.’ “Lakers are like your dad: ‘Nah, you…
