****The Official 2013-14 NBA Thread****

Screw tanking...I like being hated by Cleveland. Just go sign Kyrie.

 

Haven't you heard Lebron is going to Cleveland to play with Kyrie and Bynum. He will also clone himself and play with Carmelo in LA.

 

If by some freak chance Lebron does leave I pray Carmelo leaves too so that we won't be laughed at by Knick fans. If he stays...you can keep Melo.

 

As much as I hate the Knicks I'd love to see a 7 game ECF Heat-Knicks matchup.

 

Tune into ESPN...

espys on.....

MOE RINGZZZZZZZZ.

 

Heat murdering Knicks in playoffs of vegas summer league. Up 41 now.

 

I am not saying Bron specifically....there are players who could get more money....and honestly would it surprise you guys if say they win again and that puts them at 3 rings and he opts out and asks Miami for a max? I mean he deserves it and going forward it is obviously his team which he will bare most of the load with.

It is just business.

 

Miami winning a fourth consecutive title would be worth more than $5m extra for that season IMO.

Heat beat Knicks 113-66. Choke margin of victory record giving up 7-0 run to close game.

 

Yes. It would be stunning because Lebron's whole existence right now is to make an argument that he's the GOAT and being the only person to ever spearhead a fourpeat would be a powerful item on that resume. If they win again this year it's pretty much foregone he'll be a Heat again next.

 

Something Boik has been saying:

I don't doubt he'd rather be somewhere else, but to my earlier points, due to RFA, etc, I have doubts in his willingness to give up what is necessary to leave.

 

This is one rumor I've been hearing incessantly for the last couple of years, but I have to admit I have no firsthand knowledge. Does Kyrie hate Cleveland that much?

 

And now Mike Miller is considering back surgery to ward Cleveland off. I feel for you guys.

Particularly now that we (Heat fans) are going through the ESPN LeBron Leaveapalooza. The fact that BOTH Brian Windhorst and Ramona Shelbourne were interviewed today on Mike and Mike for a speculative article 50 weeks before any decisions can be amde was just ludicrous

 

This is the next iteration of media hate. They can't say the team is a failure, so now they can just ignore what happens on the court because LEBRON IS LEAVING YOU GUYS!!!!11twelvty

 

I think it's funny that Its being taken as a given that Kyrie wants out, but Lebron is just dying to get back.

Huh????

 

Its been a ****ty year so far for Boston sports, I guess dey mad.

After all things are going to get alot worse for them.



Because **** you Boston.

 

Yeah Cleveland dealt with "LeBron to NY rumors for like 4 years, then went through the Decision, now Kyrie rumors, and when LeBron stays in Miami, ESPN will pretend it was another "Decision" type let down for Cleveland - even though they have no shot of getting him in the first place.

 

There was a pic that got pulled on twitter...

A certain journalist cracked a joke to Mike Miller (at his charity function) about "see you in Cleveland" next year...and Mike then gave a middle finger along with his wife...they snapped the pic..put it on twitter...it got deleted 15 minutes later.

 

I saw it lmao, it was hilarious.

For the record, it was the journalist's wife he was taking the picture with, not his own wife.

[edit]

Nope, the picture is still up lol

 

I have it on as good a source as you can get......

Mike Miller's top choices are Memphis and OKC..in that order.

 

Damn he could help OKC. They're a team that can give him rest and could use the extra scoring in the playoffs.

 

lol

Ethan did well for himself there...

 

Soooo...

Heat and Marcus Camby?

(discuss)

 

Not sure he can play anymore. Knicks could have used minutes from him, and Woody saw fit to bury him on the bench.

he would need to work out for the Heat before making a decision on him, IMO.

 

Think his tank is on E and a big isn't worth anything to us if he can't run the floor

This is kind of funny.

Video game developers can't figure out what to do with Lebron James.

The article kind of flits around here and there, and the feeling you get is that Lebron probably shouldn't have been a 98 as far back as 2006, but at the same time I think the main point is a valid one. The methods NBA teams are using to beat Lebron James aren't easily translated into a video game, because they're very mental and strategy based...and obviously not all video game players are Gregg Popovich, and even if they were the video game doesn't necessarily have the full coachability and mental presence that you'd be able to show if you were really building a game plan against Lebron.

Just dissecting the raw skills and putting them on paper results in having a player that is unstoppable in a video game environment. I particularly liked the end when they said that perhaps there just has to be a gentlemens' agreement between video game players that they just can't pick Lebron James and the Heat, sort of like in Bo Jackson's heyday in Tecmo Super Bowl (although I would note that QB Eagles was tougher to play against, IMO).

 

As an avid sports video game player, **** playing Lebron in 2k. My friends and I don't play with Miami or OKC.

 

AS I reported....

Wojo is saying that OKC is the front runner to sign Mike Miller.

 

And as Ethan skolnick states, congratulate Mike Miller on the fastest healing back injury that may have required surgery of all time.

Sorry, Cleveland.

 

I wasn't interested (perhaps I should have been) personally. So no big deal to me.

 

The problem here is the rating system. There shouldn't be an overall rating. You should just have to compare players' individual category ratings, not their overall rating. The rating scale also needs to become truly 1 through 100. 75 is deplorable, 85 is okay, 90 is acceptable if you can't get anyone else. The ratings are the problem.

 

Told Mo Williams is a very real possibility to sign with Miami.

Spo desperately wants another guard and especially a ball handler. Mo Williams had a decent season last year...so he could work out. Would be a coup if they signed him.

 

Mo Williams wears #3 for the Heat.....am-I-right

 

He wore #5 last year.

 

I think I got unreasonably angry in a meeting today.

Dude asked me the WRONG question..."How much do you think your work is worth to this project?"

I answered immediately with: "About 2 to 3 million dollars an hour."

 

What project and what exactly is your role??

If I'm getting too personal just tell me to f--- off.

 

Cocaine smuggling. JK
