Battier x game 5 Miller was a huge reason Miami the series back in 2012
lol Brooks having Ibaka guarding Battier made so much open 3's it was funny, also i remember he left both KD and westbrook on the bench with a awful line up on the floor, for 5+ minutes 0_O
I have seen this brought up in other threads but its basically the same match up, Harden gone is basically ghost Harden from the finals, just Miami is older now.
if i were LeBron i would force Wade to take a huge pay cut or i leave, Bosh too or all 3 since they make $2332443232 from endorsements.

Endorsement money has never influenced any contract. And it never will.
Their job is an NBA player. That's where the most money will be made.

That's not accurate whatsoever.

what NBA player has taken less because of 'Endorsement Money'?
Lebron?
I dunno, probably plenty? I'm not a on a friendship basis with any NBA players.

not true in the slightest.
He Wade and Bosh make a million or so less to make it fit under the cap. So they can play together.

The correct answer is zero.
If you want to keep telling yourself that, sure.

If Kobe didn't take less. Why would anybody else.
You don't think Bean has enough money to not resign 2 years 48m?
But believe what you want.
I believe in reality.
Agents usually put in the work and show their clients some sort of breakdown on what free agents are going to make from salary, cities with varying taxes, endorsements, lifestyle, cost of living, etc etc.
To say endorsements don't mean anything is very shallow.

It doesn't. Only the top tier have any meaningful deals outside of hoops.
There is no proof, on the internet, of any player ever saying I took less money because of xyz marketing deal.
So there is no need to believe it.

Every dollar is guaranteed in the NBA. No need to take less money unless you are clearly trying to be in a perceived winning situation.
500k from Nike to wear their sneakers isn't preventing a role player from going to a city who is offering the most money.

You can't show me any player ever taking less money on his NBA contract due to outside business deals.
Its because it has never happened and never will.
You've got Steve Nash admitting he won't retire to ensure he gets his 9 million. He has movie production dealings on the side.
Nobody is taking less.

Frisky said they should take less due to outside contracts.
Nobody does that. And they never will.
The NBA is their job. They will take the most that is offered to them. However they did take a weeee bit less to play together. Not because of their Nike and Li Ning deals. Or any other contract for that matter.
Only people taking less are those on the back end of their careers tryna to win rings or keep NBA checks coming in for as long as possible.
The whole point of being a free agent is to see your MAX value. Not to do any GM a favor for your services.

Both the ESPN halftime crew and the TNT crew agree they are not the same team. I don't know about Mike Tirico.

They seem to have spurs number but i think spurs can win as well. They are playing some really good ball lately.

OKC doing work on the Clippers.
I'd rather not see the Spurs choke in the finals again. OKC plays SA tight so I'm hoping for that matchup.

I rather see the spurs,close series and they have the best chance. Heat might be gassed after multiple finals appearances. okc are frauds and will get eviscerated by miami.

After a great first round this second round has been awful.
True but this year could be different.
Hopefully
I had so much hope for the blazers this round.
not really

Like i said before,okc is worse than the 2012 team. If they somehow won it was because of gassed heat.Although i am not sure if the gassed theory will work.
YNB has gotten better each game this series while CP3 has gotten worse as his teammates overall have been having worse and worse games. Shows the downside to being a true PG. You can't get your team going if they can't make their shots.
CP3 needs to dig back into his early years and take over otherwise this season is over for them.
