Hearing news that some retired folks want to join the Heats too... Everyone is trying to jump on the bandwagon now, so pathetic...
penny hardaway! one the reasons why i watched ball when i was a child.-inlove it's funny in his iview it says he likes to join but why the hell would heat want him he's like 40 now...
all of this big 3 thing went down while i was down in van! time to get back on this thread. i'm with you when it comes to the heat. i like the celtics more and that's coming from a lakers fan. LBJ was a respectable player to me back in CLE, but now i just hate him. he called all the shots and played into being the king in all his years as a cavalier and now he will play second fiddle to dwade. his legacy will never be what it could have been. on another note, it's nice having CLE and LBJ fans now rooting for KB24 and the lake show.
WTF? I have always hated LBJ from the get go. I did not need the media to sell me his antics. I could see it w/ my own fking eyes. Yes, he is spoiled, has won nothing, and is literally an empty brained player. His time is aging and it's coming. D WADE is pathetic too, he acts like he is some spokesperson now, complaining, and comparing everything to the greats about a need for team-mates. If ANYBODY has really watched WADE, he is anything but a leader/facilitator. He loves to shoot, he won't pass, and he cries about his team-mates, just like LBJ. BOSH is a nobody, a guy who couldn't do squat in Toronto, so he is the least of them all. Like I said, I hope the Heats implode and I expect them to. It's great seeing this though, cuz I hate that type of mentality.
^ yeah i'm also hoping for their failure. it could go down as the biggest disappointment ever in the nba and there are no more excuses for them this time around.
why all the hate? im sexcited to see the new big 3 take down the lakers -bigclap its gonne be fun and awesome to watch
Yeah, Why the hate? I think that Lebron deserves a title, he worked so hard for it in Cleveland. I think these guys will bring high energy levels everymatch and absolotely CRUSH the lakers and the celtics. Hey Espresso, It doesnt matter how they act or if you like them or not, the truth is that these 3 guys are the top players of the league, you shouldnt be speaking poorly of them. Lebron is an empty brained player ahah, Id like to see you down there on the court, Do you realize how much pressure is put on him? If you have ever player any sport, you would know that you rarely think, you react... Dwade, 26.6 Ppg, 6.6 Apg last year, He does pass and he puts up numbers, dont know what your complaining about. CB4 24 PPG and 10.8 RPG doesnt seem like squat to me.
^ it doesn't matter if he deserves it or not. i don't think he will go down as one of the greatest to ever play the game like jordan and bryant. LBJ's mental toughness doesn't match what he brings to the court. and the crushing part is a little over the top. they're a great team, no doubt about that, but there's still the rest of the roster to fill out and chemistry/ego issues to work with. one if not all three of the big 3 will see their numbers drop. i've always had a hard time envisioning LBJ and dwade playing together. nonetheless, when it's all said and done, i do see this group winning a title or two. EDIT: thought some of you would find this entertaining.
@Da_Ace If Lebron deserves anything, it is not a title. The dude gave up in the semi-finals against the Celtics. He wasn't even trying to win or trying to help his teammates win. His egotistical behavior just ruined his reputation, no one will really wanna root for him except for Miami Fans.
i would rather have Lebron go to Chicago, he would have won a title there without being called Wade's sidekick now
I think a lot of fans outside of the Heats will really enjoy watching them lose if it happens. It's one of those things, root for the underdogs. It's going to be so much drama this coming season...Drama is what we all love.
that was already known for a longer time... But still i'm now that much more excited about this season because again before the season has even started the unexpected is done... Meaning that the top 3 teams that could get LBJ didn't got him (chi, cle and nyk) So that is why i love the nba... I mean now it is even better i hate the lakers and now i can see them to go down... (i hope it will go down). But the season has not started and i'm already excited... not only because of the heat, but also about some other teams like SAC, GSW, LAC, OKC and the chicago bulls. especially SAC because they got a new super rookie and some awesome sophomors. As for the LAC i hope to see more of griffin. love to see his dominating game
i agree cousins + evans gonna be solid...cous putting up a great summer league...kings getting him at 5th was a damn gift.
