birdman: Other than htown rockets, I have never really been a fan of any team. I follow players rather than teams. That said, if Lebron plays for Dan Gilbert again, he will lose my respect. My main reason for championing this dude was how he stood up to the billionaire, in a way Kobe or MJ never did. In other words, understanding the game outside the game,. If he goes back to the "owner" who has already made his racist views on Lebron known in the past, I will have been mistaken in thinking Lebron became a man by leaving the Cavs. We go see by the end of this week 1 Like |

This puts the final nail on the coffin of who the greatest is? ESPN analyst giving all the crazy excuses they can phantom and am sitting here laughing my butt off for real.. Granger, Birdman and Napier are the big three in Miami now..Chris Bosh is getting paid and am sure is the happiest from all this crap.. The Eastern conference would be worse next season, it's a huge shame.. What would be Miami's record next season? Bandwagon follow follow Heat fans where una dey ooo, una Queen don leave una oo |

SIRcumalot: exactly. dude is so stuck on hating one player he loses all objectivity. dont bother trying to convince him. he will believe 1+1 is 3 before he comes around. |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 2:09am On Jul 12, 2014 |
i was going to rail on LBJ for this move, primarily because of the racist ish Dan Gilbert the owner pulled the last time. After reading the SI article, I grudgingly accept his reasons, even though I think he was being partially truthful. This is also a very good move for him, as it revamps his image, meaning more advertising dollars plus not having to take a significant pay cut. Btw I think players taking a paycut just to win is a stupid thing to do. The owner wont take a paycut to keep you. Why should the player? I'll still be rooting for LBJ, albeit not nearly as much (I have always been a Bosh and Wade fan too), but at this point, its obvious LBJ is more interested in business than balling. I guess he is wising up faster than I would like |

Roland17: This puts the final nail on the coffin of who the greatest is? i know! $118mill for 5years for Bosh? Lmao. Im still a heat fan tho. Always liked Bosh, always liked Ray and always liked Dwade. And Ill be rooting for Birdman like I have always done wherever he goes. |

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 10:05pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
SIRcumalot:Don't be naïve I can't even believe you are buying that eye-service homecoming bullcrap he obviously saw younger and budding talents with Wiggins and Kyrie and left knowing fully well Wade and possibly Bosh are past their peak. The Cavs might not win next season but the Championship window is waaaaaaay wider than for the Heat which was a calculated gamble Lebron took. I call BS 2 Likes |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 11:47pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
birdman:I'm hardly suprised since you can't see past your Lebron tinted shades I have friends who are Lebron fanboys like you who have been honest enough to at least admit Lebron phucked up They say he left because the Heat didn't bring in enough backup but I ask how many players in their career had the luxury of playing with a Wade and Bosh in their prime on the same team? How much help does this diva possibly need? Its easy to join the Cavs knowing he can compete for at least half a decade with younger talent than Wade and Bosh |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 12:19am On Jul 13, 2014 |
A40: So he left a team that got to the finals 4 straight years, won 2 out of 4 championships, and just added granger and mcroberts to a team boasting wade, bosh and and a playoff tested coach for a team with one good point guard, a high draft pick and a rookie coach plus 10 other no name guys on the team which has sucked consistently since he left. As usual, logic is not your strong suite when it comes to LeBron. Enjoy your ignorance. |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:59am On Jul 13, 2014 |
I heard Ray Allen also wants to join Lebron in Cleveland. Loool how pathetic! You 9 years older than him do you have a mancrush or something? Hahahaha birdman:You clearly cannot see beyond your nose when the subject matter is Lebron! When last was Granger relevant in this league? Who da phunk is McRoberts? Wade and Bosh have no upside! Bosh is already 30 Wade would be 33 in a few months so the only way for them is down! now compare that with Andrew Wiggins (a player touted as the next big thing in this draft) Kyrie Irving (one of the best PGs in the league) and a young flexible team that can only get better, the incentive is there to join the Cavs knowing fully well there would be numerous opportunities to win Championships even when he is past this prime because guys like Wiggins and Irving would have fully evolved 1 Like |

A40: I heard Ray Allen also wants to join Lebron in Cleveland. Loool how pathetic! You 9 years older than him do you have a mancrush or something? Hahahaha You are the same dude that claimed Rashard Lewis was a star player, because you wanted to prove Lebron had too much help. Now you are trying to prove Wade is over the hill, Bosh is old, Granger and McRoberts are nobodies. You went from hailing Rashard Lewis to dissing 2 all stars and 2 solid players. See yourself for ground? As I said, logic is not your strong suite. 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by SIRcumalot: 4:23am On Jul 13, 2014 |
A40:it makes for a good story especially if it ends in at least one NBA championship. Still as a fan you have to enjoy how this move levels out the playing field in the east. If he still remain with the heats I don't see how they won't reach 2 more finals or at least get one more ring |

A40: Point |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:41pm On Jul 13, 2014 |
birdman:Stop being silly! You said Rashard Lewis was more or less a dud and I only tried to explain to you that it was not the case. Its obvious Lebron means so much to you you are willing to sound dumb just to prove a point! Wade and Bosh are stars but even a ret@rd knows that they are slowly moving past their prime if that is your interpretation of dissing then you are much dimmer than I thought |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 6:24pm On Jul 13, 2014 |
A40: One moment Rashard is good enough. The next moment, Wade and Bosh are not good enough. The longer you argue, the more you ramble, because like I said, when it comes to James, you lose logical thinking. Even you have realized it, and have reverted to name calling in lieu of facts. All the names you can call me in this world doesn't change the plain simple facts |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 2:29am On Jul 14, 2014 |
birdman:Wade and Bosh not good enough? When did I say that you ret@rd! So a player slowly edging past their prime means they are not good enough? Is that what it means in Simpletonia where you obviously come from? You are just a big eediot and arguing with you is simply a waste of time |
