i am watching a dont mean shit preseason atlanta miami
i have a feeling that miami will be able to be broken down defensively
quite easily as well, people are still lebron watching
Their Interior will be mad suspect. Bosh/Anthony/Haslem/Ill-Z is not scaring dudes in the paint.
Unless Orlando changes up that 3 point bullshit, they'll still fall short.
Van Gundy has been experimenting more with different personnel sets, using Gortat or Bass at PF and shifting Lewis to the 3. That way, in the playoffs, they can quickly adapt to a team that's able to handle Dwight 1-on-1 and mitigate the 4 out/1 in approach. (I hope.)
bosh is still mad hesitant, shaq/howard-n-em wont give a fuck
also
these new technicals on intent and air punching will make the league even more pussyfooted than it already is, ive seen this type of freedom of officials interpretation in soccer and its terrible
you cant be politely ironic anymore

Time to return to the 'traditional' style. That West Coast 3 point Don Nelson shit doesnt work in the Playoffs.
It took them 2/3 years to wake the hell up.
Lewis gonna have to put that ball on the floor and not be just a spot up power forward/SF.
This ad makes Kanye's worst moments look kind of humble.
right.
this was such a bitch move. either own up to your decision and advocate for it...or just issue a flat out apology for being a jackass. taking ownership was really the route here...i don't want to buy nike because lebron has thoughts, but because he is a badass on the court.
if i was designing the campaign i'd have lebron dribbling a basketball that was filled with all of the loud naysayers...and then i'd have him dunk the ball with the force of 20 men, causing the ball to bust open into a thousand pieces.
as expected, some last-minute jitters, but the TRUE Big Three showed the NEW Big Three it ain't easy, and it ain't never gonna BE easy. Miami looked like the Cavs redux, with James being looked at to win it all by himself.
this game had a playoff atmosphere - right down to a dramatic Paul Pierce injury exit and return! hahaha
I wonder if Miami gonna be like the Isaiah Thomas Pistons that everyone hated except Detroit. I think maybe. Shaq actually was able to move, that was impressive.
David Stern is the worst. With this technical foul nonsense, you're going to create a league of emotionless dudes playing for a paycheck.....A bad call in a big game may lead to the fans doing God knows what...If the players can't complain, please believe the people in the seats will, and it may get ugly.

Yup. I've said it before. They've really cracked down/cleaned up after the Malace at the Palace. No more doo-rags at post-game conferences.
That technical foul shit is ridiculous though. Seriously, let the players express a little. I can only imagine all that pent-up frustration is gonna lead to an elbow or fore-arm shove ANYWAY!
Two quarters into the regular season, Blake Griffin is a lock for ROY (if he stays healthy).
HATE Baron at the point. Was good as a novelty act with the Hornets....
Every single PG night in and night out is gonna get their way going to the rack.
Dude plays horrific defense. TRADE HIS ASS. or give Eric Gordon or Randy Fowe more
playing time.

U havent see ALL of the draft/rookies play and your just buying into the hype.....AFTER 24 mins of play?
Who is to say another kid might just explode. Were u talmbout Tyreke Evens at all?
No I wasn't even paying attention to Tyreke. He doesn't have the blazing speed of Derick Rose or John Wall (All three from Memphis). Probably why he was not on the radar of most NBA fans. Very good overall talent on the offensive end, but I think his upside is limited...
On the other hand, Blake was dominant in college; as was Rose and Wall. The dude makes Michael Beasley look like a little boy. Lock for ROY (if he stays healthy), nuff said.

Another reason why everyone is praising him is because he's a 6'10" dude that could do it all. And rarely do big guys come along that could really play.
Greg Oden was #1 pick on POTENTIAL. All he did in college was putback dunks.
Demarcus Cousins was #5. I mean he could bang in the paint but his skills were still way raw...He seemed kinda clumsy and on the fat side too. I thought he was chosen VERY high. Goes to show how much value is placed on big men in the league. Out of that Memphis bunch, I liked Eric Bledsoe the best. Dude was like Nate Robinson on steroids. Kinda reminds me of Will Bynum on Detroit.

i am praying that this happens. there is a certain bay area team that could use spoelstra right about now.

Funny, but true.

Stern can't get rid of these though.
hope they go deep in the playoffs
fistpumping has no place in sports of course
Really? You can't say you love a sports figure without throwing a "pause" up in there? Has it come to this?

U mean Duncan,Ginobli,and Parker?
