Smitch in the Playoffs by default!
 
Meanwhile in the Southwest division:
1 (2) Mavericks 24-7 Cowboys have, what, one significant W in the Romo Era? The real title contender in town, meanwhile, rolls along with zero hoopla, even at 24-3 since that 0-4 start.

3 (3) Spurs 23-8 If you were waiting for Pop's annual December rant about his team's lack of toughness, you got it at Christmas when he said Spurs have lost ''passion'' for D.

5 (9) Rockets 19-12 In the event T-Mac's back has somehow been cured by that new specialist -- assuming chronic back woes can be cured -- maybe Yao's latest setback isn't a crisis.

How much does it cost to move to the Eastern conference?

I'm guessing Pop must have gotten ejected.

What a day for Miami sports fans...:lol :lol :lol :lol
 
Riley is such a loser. for the 2nd time he runs off with his tail between his legs when the times get tough. He was never like that in LA. I guess its something in Miami that turns you into a coward.
 
I like how he took it right in time for the west coast trip. He KNOWS the heat are gonna get murdered out here

Let me preface this by saying that if his medical condition is truly urgent then I'm sorry for what I'm about to say.

Pat Riley is the biggest bitch in the NBA. He makes Carmelo Anthony look like Captain ****ing America. He comes in and forces Stan Van Gundy out of a job..gets lucky and wins another ring, and now the bitch runs away when things don't come as easy as they did last year.
 
His hip problems may very well be real, but you honestly believe that if the team was 23-7 with a healthy (relatively) Shaq and Wade rather than struggling to even reach .500 Riley would be taking a leave of absence right now? I highly doubt it.

Hey, he like, Shaq got a *ring, without Jerry Buss. What does he care for now?

all these pat riley jokes are great, but some of you guys still sound bitter.

I still think he'd take a leave of absence if they weren't sucking, but it'd be for like 5 games or around the all star break. all I can say to heat fans is where is your god now? Oh wait, I forgot that their god is Dick Bavetta.
 
it was just announced that Heat forwards Antoine Walker and James Posey have been d-activated for not meeting the team's conditioning standards. According to head coach Par Riley, if the two don't shape up by January 15, both will be suspended.

WTF :lol

PS: Rox fans, ISH is reporting a huge story about to break in Houston. Maybe a trade?
 
God damn I hate being a Miami fan on days like these.

First Saban, now Riley.

WTF is ISH?

If your HUGE STORY is the fact that Van Chancellor quit as Comets coach, I will clown you the rest of the month.
 
Well, that was the big news. Comets are sold and Van Chancellor quit.


Konex, your WNBA News Source.
 
The Heat are sending the best roster out there ever tonight vs. LAC:

Earl Barron
Michael Doleac
Udonis Haslem
Robert Hite
Jason Kapono
Alonzo Mourning
Gary Payton
Chris Quinn
1/2 Jason Williams
Dorell Wright




This isn't going to be good.

BTW, Riley picked the best time to miss a few games. Won't have to travel...not hiding from anything...
 
Time for some REAL breaking news!

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2719076

ESPN - Steve Kerr will not be able to broadcast Thursday's game between the Lakers and Kings due to back spasms, so Charles Barkley will provide the color commentary in his place.

He will partner with Marv Albert.

Barkley will be a courtside analyst for the first time in nearly five years and only the fourth time since he began working with the network

Yes!
