I figured I'd play a video game instead of watching the Magic play the woeful Kings. And of course the Magic are in another war with them. I dont get it. They just lost to them a couple of weeks ago also. bleh. Those damned Kings.

Christ people, it's a few game span.

DBNYDP · 03-10-2011, 12:11 AM

Greg Monroe is the next great big man.

Yeah yeah highlight reel. I really wish you people would stop making me defend LeBron, since I can't ******* stand him and haven't been able to for years.

But I don't wanna rant about the Celtics. I hate them. They are douchebags. I ate them. I want them to lose every game. When KG is only the 4th biggest douche bag on ur team, u got some douche bags (Rondo, Pierce, and Big Baby). **** them.

You know, I'm pretty sure KG is the biggest douche.

Haha, they are pretty interchangeable IMO.

MetSox17 · 03-10-2011, 01:20 AM

Melo is clutch. Lebrick is not.

Welcome to my world! I've been doing since before he signed with the Heat because people were just stupidly unreasonable when it came to LeBron.

Honestly, I wish I did like him. It would make this much easier.

Although, I will say for comparison, that I like LeBron a million times more than MJ. But that's just because MJ is a giant ******* asshole both on and off the court.

He did not win the series there for it was not a clutch shot.

Shiver · 03-10-2011, 05:32 AM

Here is my plan for Miami: fire Spoelestra after they lose to Boston, sign Samuel Dalembert to a MLE next season and hire Nate McMillan to be your head coach. Then move Dwyane Wade to his original position, point guard, where he was in 2003 and 2004. In free agency target young and unproven players rather than the undead they tried this year: Juwan Howard? Jerry Stackhouse? Jamaal Magloire? Eddie House?

PG - Dwyane Wade
SG - Mike Miller
SF - LeBron James
PF - Chris Bosh
C - Samuel Dalembert

6th man Udonis Haslem

bigbluedefense · 03-10-2011, 06:16 AM

I doubt they can afford Dalembert.

bigbluedefense · 03-10-2011, 06:24 AM

Bosh demands the ball in the paint.

LeBron ultimately replies with "Well stop being a *****, and you'll get it"

Shiver · 03-10-2011, 07:24 AM

Bosh does have a point though: he is forced out to the elbow and his shot breakdown shows he is relying more (too much) on his jump shot; shooting 50% of his shots as jumpers rather than 30% last year. He is very effective in the low post, especially when he is at PF. But then again it took Coach Spo 50+ games to realize that a LeBron-Wade pick and roll would be effective (gasp!) so I don't know if we'll see Bosh used correctly. Coach Spoelestra knows defense, but his offensive imagination is sorely lacking. He is the Anti-D'Antoni.

The Heat need to get rid of James or Wade. I thought it was dumb back in July when James decided to come to the Heat. Now, my point is being proven for me.

They would have been much better off with Wade and Bosh as their #1 and #2 scorers, with Mike Miller as the #3 option. They could've used somebody like Brendan Haywood, but the Mavs (stupidly) are paying him $9 million/year.

Signing all three has been bad for the rest of the team. They score about 80% of the team's points, which is too high a number.

Shiver · 03-10-2011, 08:06 AM

The Heat without LeBron James would be the 6th seed in the East. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade have shown glimpses of absolute brilliance, notably in December, and even when better teams have bested them it was in the 4th quarter and a few plays away from being an entirely different story. So I cannot disagree any more.
