Let me rephrase: there is no condition under which I want Lebron. I want to build a team that will whip him and whichever cronies he tries to get on his bandwagon.
4 straight wins. On to Orlando. On another note, Dwight Howard with another 8 point game. It's becoming the norm. Absolute garbage.
Oh set marks for offensive efficiency like only 3 others in nba history. Who else you have to ever average 20ppg/10rpg/4apg/35%from 3 (at least 1 attempt per game)/50% from 2? There's only 3 others and one of which (Dirk) you have to round up for. He's set some standards for offensive efficiency but Blatt is too dumb to understand that. Like I said in the preseason, Chicago will win the east. I have no love for them either but IMO Cleveland is overrated. That's not a team, it's a collection of individuals
Two fugazy punks. I would have loved to see either of them try that bs on some old school Knicks like Oakley or Mason! They'd have gotten punked
It's pathetic, man. I refuse to stick up for Dwight. He is soft as hell. Durant was right when he called him a b**ch a couple of months ago. You know you're soft when you let Kevin Durant get away with calling you a b**ch.
Bosh's numbers have approached that before. Bosh's numbers since joining Miami have been ridiculously efficient. I think Love was a great player on a bad team. Not impressed by it. NOW is when he has to prove himself, playing with some actual pressure. I maintained that Bosh was always better..but was willing to cede that Love "might" be better. I take that back. I'm back with Bosh as being better.
Prior to actually watching him day in, day out, I thought Love was better (not immensely). But that fact that one is a two way player and the other is not (and it is apparently not a function of environment), I can't put Love above Bosh. He is still very good, but not as good. His offense and rebounding can't overcome lack of defense.
I liked Bosh before he came to Miami for his offensive game, but I've really come to appreciate how good of a defender he is since. I love the efficiency we get from Bosh, Wade and Deng. I'm really excited to see if we can add similarly efficient play from Whiteside, Ennis and Shabazz. I really like the potential of this core group. And I like the potential going forward as well. If we can get back a healthy McRoberts next season all the better. I'm not even sure what my wish list would from the 2016 FA crop. I like the balance of that group so much that I'm not really coveting anybody. Obviously guys have to continue to develop this season for that feeling to continue, but I feel optimistic.
Even though Urban screwed the Gators(not a fan of them) like Saban did with the Dolphins, I'm happy Ohio won after the tattoo scandal they went through.
Birdman's like Wade better watch out. He's the kind of dude that before you know it will pull out some 12 inch long rusty fish filleting knife he managed to have hidden in his sock.
Watching the YouTube highlights of the last four games he's played I swear some of these blocks and dunks and stuff I'm just thinking, "Do you guys actually realize that Miami has a center on the floor? Because it looks like you don't." That said, he's certainly made a couple of impressive plays. Love his hook shots.
He is a VERY ..extremely.. rare commodity. The Big guy that falls through the cracks. But it makes perfect sense when you step back from it. . He is drafted 33rd overall after a great freshman year at Marshall. (DeAndre Jordan got drafted 35th) . He is deemed a complete problem child at all the camps he attends, and coaches consider him arrogant and un-coachable. . Injury. . Rookie Season is over. . Rehab in D-League. Goes overseas to get seasoning. . Comes back. Two teams loaded with Bigs fail to protect his rights...back to D-League. . Pat Riley swoops in and gives him an uncharacteristic 2 year deal. (My guess is that he had competition.) . Proceeds to Hall of Fame.
So I'll be at the Heat game tonight. My girlfriend's boss got us tickets in the 3rd row behind the Lakers bench. Pretty stoked about that. Wish they were behind the Heat's bench, but can't look a gift horse in the mouth, right? Really hoping they win, though, because I really don't want to hear it from Lakers fans if we lose.
I like the staple center, cool place. Ennis the Menace walked out the front door after the game with his entourage after they kicked the Clippers *** on Sunday. That was cool, true story, no pic though. My son enjoyed that, And I have to say Whiteside Should be getting more minutes.
Whiteside finishes each dunk so emphatically. Really fun to watch. He looks incredibly comfortable and confident out there for a guy so raw. Always in a good spot to make a play.
Will the Lakers make a basket this quarter? Sheesh, how do you go without scoring a single basket for the first 7 minutes? LOL That some tank I never seen before ever.
See I think Bosh is better but simply because of his position. Its just much harder to find a great C (even if hes soft...see what i did there ) and the position scarcity has to play a role. Love is a great player, hes just being horribly misused on a team that has a collection of really good players but isnt yet a team. Bosh's numbers may have been on the same continent but they never landed in the same zip code as what love did last year. And Love did that in the West which has been a deeper and better conference for much of the last decade.
Whiteside with 21 fantasy points at halftime. $$$$$$$$$$$ I'm taking him again tomorrow. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
