Tanking is like taking a Greyhound bus cross-country. Sure, it may eventually get you where you want to go, but it’s messy and unpleasant and uncomfortable, it stinks, the entire time you’ll be wishing you weren’t there, and not everybody along for the ride is going to make it to the end. - Quote stolen from Deadspin

More power to the people, I say. Let the high schoolers in! Let the players dictate where they want to play! I don't care. This offseason has been crazy and fun. Even the AD drama was entertaining, with him being such a dope.

GARDENHEADSupporterBoogie tore his ACL.
I feel bad for Boogie (even though he turned down 2 years $40 million from New Orleans and then told everyone he signed with Golden State because he had no offers), but happy that the Lakers lost a key starter from an already thin roster.

Vertical LimitForum VeteranHis injuries have costed him about 150 million easily... yikes ..
Vertical LimitForum VeteranThis guy had a torn quad and came back early for the finals.. torn achilles... and now torn acl... KD better make sure he is truly 150% before he bounces back on the court. You cant jump in there at 80% after a major injury, youre not moving the same and you start to use one leg more dominantly than the other and you put yourself at risk.

Derrick Rose needed more than 1 year to completely heal.

"Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves – from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person – neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are, but a Saviour, with the power to forgive... It is my prayer that on this Christmas day we might all find room in our lives for the message of the angels and for the love of God through Christ our Lord." (Christmas message, 2011)

I no longer feel bad for Boogie. You don't threaten to kill the mother of your child. Ever. Ever.

Vertical LimitForum VeteranThere is no defense to what he said on the video and his personality that we all know of him as a public figure doesnt help his case at all.... this should humble his dumbass...
Mcduffie81SupporterI feel bad for me. The Heat haven’t signed anyone cool.

Tanking just isn’t gonna happen with Riley. I’ll just enjoy watching Jimmy and Tyler Buckets be competitive and Tyler and Justise develop.
With the level of tanking we have ahead of us in the dolphins, I’m happy we don’t have to endure that with the heat tbh.
Vertical LimitForum VeteranI love the Heat but Riley sometimes is a little out there.. he loves blowing smoke up players ass.. jimmy is NOT a top 10 player.. come on dude..

Like when he called Luol Deng the biggest free agent signing in Heat history
Vertical LimitForum VeteranOr Shawn Marion being Wade’s Pippen...
anyways heres some Heat news, Erik Spoelstra just signed a LONG term extension with the Heat. I know there arent many spo fans but too bad hes here for a long time
Not So FastForum VeteranI think most Heat fans know Spo is a great coach although he has some weird quirks with his lineups at times which can cause people to question him.
phinswolverinesrocketsForum VeteranRockets preseason starts tonight. I don't care if it is against a Chinese team. I'm just glad basketball is back because my college and pro football teams have been straight trash.
Welcome back, Rockets.

Riley doesn’t give him enough shooting, which will be a major issue this season.
phinswolverinesrocketsForum VeteranIf Daryl Morey is fired over a damn tweet about China, Rockets' fans and players will protest. The team's owner better not cave in to the Chinese threats...smh
