Lmao. Never seen anyone act the way he has, from the playoffs until now

eh, there were plenty of super arrogant, cocky brash dubs fans last year (which made the victory that much sweeter), so this is nothing new. It's amusing, really. ;p

So future 1st, Sully and Johnson for Love?
(Frees up the Wade money)
Or
2 future 1st, Sully and Johnson and a guard for Boogy?
C'mon Danny..

Bam is great entertainment (and he rides with the Dubs so he's cool with me). Y'all need to stop taking sports so seriously.
They could have fixed with it cap smoothing, but I think the players were strongly against it.

As a Heat fan, part of me hopes Wade leaves so we can start the rebuilding process around Whiteside, Richardson and Winslow and not do the whole Kobe thing.

You guys still want Love?
It's an upgrade and good pairing with Horford. We'll just be doing CLE a favor again

LeGM would have done Sully X #3 X Johnson for Love in a heartbeat had they lost

Y'all think the mavs can get to 50 wins this year? Is bogut, Barnes and Seth enough to make them win 8 more games? Or are they gonna be about the same

yeah i'm sure lebron would have killed to have 2 bigs who can't shoot and the 3rd pick in a 2 man draft
Nah. Less than last season. Parsons and Pachulia are gone, Dirk and Williams are a year older.

Oh shit yeah I didnt know about that
Yup, and from the players perspective fighting it seems like the right call
Thank you. I don't get why I can't get it to work.

How do you have such good internet access under your bridge?
I'd say this is a significantly better roster (or is that the point). I'm also crazy and think that CP3 is still the best PG in the league though.
I'll be sad to see Sully go. He was always fun to watch.

I wish the Heat would just say, "Ya know what...I'm good bruh"
This is ridiculous.
This is ridiculous.
Jeez, sounding like Wade could actually leave??
I'm usually of the belief that players should make every cent they can at every opportunity, but I'm surprised Wade would be willing to end his career on some random team like Denver or Milwaukee.
edit: Minnesota signed Brandon Rush. Sad to see him go, but nice pickup for Minny. He can still play solid D and has an incredible stroke from 3.
That dude could have been Danny Green on steroids if he hadn't gotten injured. I was at the game against Memphis a few years ago when Zbo fucked up his knee. Just a shitty turn of fate that robbed him of a lot of athleticism.

I love Wade, but I don't want to give him the Kobe contact and handcuff the franchise from even being able to start to improve for another 3 years.

So the Celts are still working on trades for Okafor and/or Butler? Interesting..

Man we are some sad motherfuckers.
C's gonna rebuild and probably reach finals a good 3-4 years before the Lakers huh
Probably the most revisionist take Ive ever heard but whatever.

Could still get Okafor on the cheap (ish). Butlet would still cost half the team and the next couple years of draft picks.

I haven't seen anything that seems like news, just that all three teams may still be interested in deals at some point.
Nice, I like the pick up by Thibs.
Im not that big of a fan of the Okafor Horford pairing, Noel would be a much better option now

I missed the reporter they were referencing, but Holley was talking about it on WEEI.
Exactly... we have a scoring forward now..

Heat aren't going to budge on a 3rd year for Wade. In the bow down to LeBron era, I kind of admire a franchise that won't be bullied by player demands.

As much as I like Noel I don't really want to pair Horford with another center.
Horford at 4, Noel at 5
Cornbread78

Exactly, Horford wants to play the 4. Noel would be a perfect pairing for him in Boston.

Horford wants to play the 4 but he's more valuable as a 5.
Its that people still think this goes on. Lebron and Gilbert barely even looked at each other during the championship festivities. Lol if you really think this billionare is bowing down to Lebron.
No he is a gimmick account that tries to rile people up.

I'm honestly not disappointed with the Lakers in the off season. Im excited to see the young guys develop more than expecting top free agents to sign.

Just give me more shooters. Horford at 5 and Olynyk at 4.

You're pretty much the only person who thinks he doesn't.
