I am disgusted yet pleased we aren't losing that badly.

And peter sorry but this team is not well coached. Its been two years of this crap. This team has enough talent to win championships with almost no coaching, that is what happened last year. When stuff go bad, this team has always looked lost.

Spo has done well getting these guys to play defense, that is about it.
I just don't buy into the myth of coaching.
 
Somehow I find a way to not post on a message board constantly. Silly me.

That's not really the point. We're fine with you posting here. Just don't come right now, suddenly appearing a hell of a lot more, and make sarcastic "I told you so posts" or "Nobody knows about us small-market teams" posts when things are riding high.
 
Really? I don't see Spo being fired unless Riley is the coach. Lakers IMHO would need to be blown out for Mike Brown to get canned IMHO, though he's on the precipice.
Heat fans.
You mean Quad L's. There are plenty of legit Heat fans who will still be around.
That's not really the point. We're fine with you posting here. Just don't come right now, suddenly appearing a hell of a lot more, and make "WE ALREADY WON" or "HEAT BEST TEAM OF ALL TIME" or "ISN'T THERE A TEAM THAT'LL GIVE THE HEAT COMPETITION?" posts when things are riding high.
See what I just did?

or that kobe is a 4th quarter choker

Just curious, do u think the same of Dirk? The Thunder have won multiple close games against Dirk and Kobe...that should tell you the Thunder have arrived because the last complaint about them (their end game asstastic offense) has been resolved.


But of course, it's just Kobe sucks lol

If freezing out pau and Bynum all quarter while jacking up bad shots and then crying about it isn't sucking I'm not sure what could count as sucking.
 
INDY bench is ass

Can't coach a team that doesn't want to be coached.

I just don't buy into the myth of coaching.

So, is Spo planning to play Lebron and Wade for 45mins+? They'll be gassed come the fourth quarter.

That's one way to get back into this.

I would like for Heat bench to get more shots though.

Lebron might have to play 48 minutes today.

NBA coaching is a joke.

Wade and Lebron chose to keep Spoelstra because he isn't a hard ass who they have to take shit from. If you really think Pat Riley was the complete voice of reason for his extension your stupid.

Carmelo Anthony forced D'Antoni to resign. Jason Kidd forced Byron Scott out of Jersey. Lebron got Mike Brown fired. Piston players forced their guy out of town. And now Stan VanGundy is next. NBA players powers rise over coaches. These guys dont listen to shit.

So... no comment?

Beautiful game?

Word.


Funny

Sad

True

But, but, but a team that hits 3's plays defense, rebounds and sits back to let Lebron do is thing isn't built for Lebron to win.

I've revised the roster that Lebron needs to win.

1. Batman. Great strategist. He would run the team to perfection.
2. Flash. No one would be able to stay in front of him and he could play forever.
3. Lebron. wouldn't have to do much, just score.
4. Hulk. Enforcer. Would fuck shit up.
5. Superman. With him and Hulk no one would get position on the block.

Bench:

It doesn't matter, we already won. We gonna win not 7 or 8 or 9 championships, but 12!

I know you listen to everything Dan Lebatard has said but coaching does have some importance, there are certain guys where you can see their influence come out. I still rather have players though of course.

I really do agree with Dan on this- I'm not saying coaching doesn't have an impact, but there is a "mythos" built around certain coaches, which I don't buy. Put Riley as coach here, nothing would change. People say say Wade doesn't "respect" Spo because he got in his face? Repeatedly, Zo would get in Riley's face and put a finger up to him, to the point that players were fearful he would physically strike him. Its overblown man.

Mike brown got himself fired for being one of the two worst coaches on the league, lakers age deserves better.

Do you watch the games? Pau and Bynum get the ball and just pass...this has been particularly Pau's problem all year. He doesn't get the ball and look to attack unless he's within a few feet. The turnover play was a perfect example of this. You're too obsessed with Kobe's shot attempts and your faux narrative of Kobe freezing out the bigs to see the bigs touch the ball on most the plays and don't do anything with it.

The funny thing is, there isn't a player on the Knicks who could win with this roster.
