THE OFFICIAL MIAMI HEAT SUMMER of 2010 Thread.

The part where that guy was singing "Didn't we almost have it all" was great, dare I say LeBatardesque.

Great Skolnick blog on the economics of the NBA, and Exhibit "B" in the case of "Bill Simmons is an ignorant, unfunny douche"

 

Anybody have ESPN insider? What's up with the "McGrady may also end up with Heat"??

Guess that makes him officially a Lebron-guy...

 

Anyone ever do that to play with Kobe?

 

All it says is that McGrady has his "eye on south beach". Nothing about us showing any interest.

 

Boik reported Big Z might head to Miami. How bad would THAT piss of Cavs fans? Also Riley forgives...he just doesn;t forget. I can see Mac headed here for a min. contract.

 

Bill Simmons will be on LeBatard at 4:30 with an "announcement."

 

Sorry..lol..been without the internet.

 

Let me guess, based on the Miller/Z/Haslem signings, he now believes the Heat has enough role players to win the title

Or

He has sex with goats

 

I was gonna guess he now thinks we're good enough to make the playoffs. Maybe even win 50 games. Maybe, juuuuuuusst maybe, we're good enough to win 2 games against Boston in the playoffs...at home...with Garnett and Pierce both out with injuries. That is probably wishful thinking on my part though.

 

thank the lord for the 790 iPhone app...

 

I forgot his prediction that we'd struggle to win 50 games. Notice how Daryl Morey has figured he'd ought to keep his fat mouth shut at this point? Perhaps Bill should take the hint and slink away until he football season where he can return to trashing another Miami team, while blowing the Patriots at every turn.

 

Great read here

Simmons has now converted to the Dark Side. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

 

He was in the denial stage of grief last week, he has now moved to acceptance.

Says the Heat doesn't need a PG

 

Only 4 ways this team doesn't win a title, per Simmons:

1. Last shot issue becomes a problem (but he admits LBJ will likely defer)

2. Women (some unfunny comments)

3. Injuries

4. Karma

 

This interview is awesome.... 4 little straws! LMAO

 

I don't think you'll necessarily see LeBron, or anyone, defer.

 

Wow. Thanks for sharing. Probably best article I've read thus far about the situation.

 

I've got slightly more detailed paraphrased transcriptions on Heat Freak, which is where this conversation really should be occurring. Come on, the new site needs some support, guys!

 

We're trying Des, but old habits are hard to rbeak

 

Two interesting blog postings from The Painted Area.....

....and Alone in the Corner.

A little info on Alone in the Corner blogger Bob Voulgaris who's database has the Heat at "70wins+ assuming they try in each game and are healthy."

Smells like a jinx job nonetheless.

 

I don't have ESPN Insider, but someone on Boxden does:

- Chad Ford

 

On ESPN ticker:

MIAMI HEAT GUARD MARIO CHALMER SUFFERS A HIGH ANKLE SPRAIN; WILL BE IN A CAST FOR 2 - 4 WEEKS.

Agreed on my end. Let's hang this thread from the rafters next to SAS' jersey.

 

You know, up until the very last word, I was horrified by that sentence. lol

 

I'm not afraid of Jesse Jackson.
