I think trading LBJ would put them in a better place to win a chip as it would allow them to get a lot of very good complimentary pieces. You could probably fleece Detroit for e.g.
 
There is literally not a player on Detroit that would help the Heat win a title next year. I cannot think of a single one. Only Greg Monroe could even come close to helping and he's too raw right now to do so.

Monroe Prince Stuckey wouldn't be a bad 3 to put around bosh/wade.

But there are better, particularly if the Pacers are ready to give up on Grainger as a 1A player.

Or the nuggets, Dre or ty / nene / Gallo?

Lol, you could only dream that the nuggest were foolish enough to do that trade. Thats an instant win+ trade for you guys. Particularly if the PG is dre.

Starting 5 of Andre Miller, Wade, Gallinari, Bosh, NeNe is much more to be feared than the current line up.

Shaq, sticking it to Kome lol

I got out of that that Kobe was pissed Shaq didn't stand up for him, that a dude (Kobe) who plays with severely sprained ankles, dislocated shoulders, and fractured fingers called Shaq out for being out of shape, and milking an injury he should have resolved over the summer (all true) and that Kobe's a gotdamn PROPHET lol

"I'm going to be the number one scorer for the Lakers, I'm going to win five or six championships, and I'm going to be the best player in the game."

I also got out of it that Shaq's a well intentioned but overly sensitive Goof Ball that's as immature as Kobe, but not nearly as driven.

Why, whats the huge thing that would hold it back?

Whats the reason you wouldn't do that trade. It's a much better put together team.

Lol yes very much so.


But everyone already knows Kobe can be a jackass. The great ones usually are. Dude also had an isolationist childhood and kept moving from place to place...I know people like that in real life, they are guarded and don't let people in. All that stuff is common knowledge about Kobe, so I didn't learn anything new about him I didn't already know.


He's less of a jackass than MJ though, and that's enough for me lol.

on paper it sounds nice since you wouldn't suck at any position. but I would rather have a 3 big-time players than 2 greats and 3 decent ones. unless gallinari turns into the next larry bird as hunter described him, that is. he's good but we still haven't seen a full season of all-star caliber play from him or even nene

now, this is all on one condition: bosh has to rebound better than last year. which i think he will do.

Yes, because i like constructing teams that have a chance at winning. But AB > rose, right? and Kevin Martin is a legit player!

lol.
 
Where is the best place to get basketball shoes?

I don't want anything more than 50 bucks and I don't care about anything special. But I also don't want an asshole on my foot that isn't comfortable or looks like shit. Any recommendations?

I read it, I own it, and I knew that was Jeffrey. I didn't think he would go back to 1992 though lol so I figured he read some new article with Mynum responding to Pau's recent comments:


Pau Gasol said:
He [Drew] sees that he can be a force in the post, which I’m sure we will use and utilize and take advantage of. But we do have to look at all the team pieces, and what works for the team.

Pau: Get back in line boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeee!! lol

It was the substance of the tweet. Arison basically said some owners are holding everyone back...you know Stern ain't gonna take that

Mark Cuban needs to man up and go for a $1M fine.

Oh, and Shaq is still full of shit.

Dre sucks... He is two years away from being worse than Bibby.

Galli is much worse than LBJ, and Nene has the same fouth quarter afliction that LBJ has..

Really the Heat will find a ring chaser PG soon and Nene isn't the future answer at the 5..

If the Heat don't win a title in the next two years, they're never winning one. However, I do think they will end up with two or three.

I don't think that is the case.. I could see it happening once they get some sort of unseen rookie.. kind of like the Celtics with Rondo..
 
ryutaro's mama said:
Yeah, Ace.

Anyone who thinks the Heat aren't chipping up soon (within the next 2-3 at most) is smoking.

Puddles, I'm looking at you.
Click to expand...

Well, nobody is winning this year. 2013 is the Heat's next legitimate chance. LeBronze better win it soon because after the true MVP of the team joins Kobe in retirement he'll never win. Well, until the Heat sign another leader, that is.
 
ryutaro's mama said:
Rondo was a trade and he was a fluke.
Click to expand...

Yeah, but it happens all the time with the "good" teams..

The Heat were a really good defensive team.. if they get a piece that could really grow in that kind of system and chip in a bit on O.. then bingo..

They did just trade away their next four draft picks. I think that if it doesn't happen in the next two years, the tension about LeBron, Bosh, and Wade all being at the end of their contracts without a chip will cause implosion in the team and LeBron and Bosh will leave.

No offense man but im glad you don't run the FO.
 
Agree with giri.

God forbid the heat actually get a real rotation and borderline allstars who know what an offensive set is.
 
If you want supporting players since Wade and LeBron can't play together or something, Wade should be traded since he's LeBron - shooting - defense - passing + injuries and is even less clutch and more of a bitch.

Except that in the finals he's historically been amazing and LeChoke can't shoot either but hey who cares about that

He only watches draftexpress, YouTube mixes, and jazz games. He has no idea what he's talking about 85% of the time. We just don't notice it because kad and clover post here too.
