When I lived in Pensacola, it looked like I had rubbed baby oil all over my face or that I was wet...lol

yup, nothing quite like being drenched in your own sweat without having to move a muscle...

I thought he quit on Cavs in 2010 vs. Celtics. (remember the elbow injury?)

Impossible. I've been told Lebron's indestructible.

You knowingly employ woman beaters and sexual predators.....time to go.

While they're at it, get Ballmers ass out as well.

Because he did it too.

Hired a Dude with restraining orders, r*pe allegations that had to pay 12 mil for sexual harassment.

Yeah, let's get rid of the racist...

But, r*pe apologists are good to go?



Ballmer friend gets NBA job after sex-assault complaint

Agree. I don't put a whole lot of separation between being a racist or a sexual predator. In both cases it's someone with more power using it to be abusive of someone with less power. Both need harsh punishment to both get justice for victims and serve as a warning that shit like that isn't tolerated.

My first summer in Florida...I was pretty sure I was gonna die.

Florida heat makes you feel like you're going to just melt into a puddle.

Arizona heat makes you feel like you're going to turn to dust and blow away.

Man up. But Orlando gets the worst out of any city in Florida. Tampa/Miami respectively at least have the ocean breeze. Orlando is smack dab in the middle of the state.....so fuck that.

Pretty crazy that we're in late Feb & the Rockets are 28-1 when Capela, Harden, & Paul all play

I think it depends on the system. The Lakers system, like the Warriors, is based on sharing the ball and not being overly dependent on 1 player.

From what we've all read and heard, Lebron has been looking to lighten his load since at least year 3 in Miami.

Why wouldn't a system that is designed to lighten everyone's load and is based on sharing the ball (which Lebron prefers to do appeal to him?

Also, as Phil Jackson (who Luke played for and who first mentored him in coaching) used to say, you let a superstar operate outside the system when necessary. So, Lebron would play within the system but have the freedom to play outside of it when necessary.

I agree it makes sense - but it seems he always wants the control in a passive aggressive way - so I would be surprised really if he played within a system for any length of time.

in my time there i hit NYC, Syracuse, Albany, and Watertown. the wind chill factor brought it down to -67 on a couple of days...

Nope. Completely wrong. Whoever says he quit on them either didn’t watch or follow the Cavs and Lebron. Yeah when he put up 45 against the Big 3 by himself lmao

Never put up 45 against the big 3 in 2010. You're confusing it with 2012 when he was in Miami and put up 45 in Boston down 3-2

Scored 15 in a critical game 5 in 2010 vs Boston. He was terrible in the final 3 games of that series.

I know this is unlikely.

But, Is it wrong that I want Cuban to lose his team?

It's no secret that I am NOT a Trump fan.

I dislike many things that he stands for.

But, do you know what else I dislike?

Hypocrisy.

How the fuck you gonna troll somebody about being inappropriate when your bitch ass is allowing the same Shit to happen within your organization?

Fuck that clown.

I don't dislike Trump as much as the common person - but he does some things where I'm just flabbergasted.

But you're spot on - Cuban was plenty self righteous during the time of the election. Then when it came out that some people in his front office were guilty of sexual harassment, he played it off like he actually cared. Then come to find out, he apparently knew about it for awhile but was hoping it'd get swept under the rug.

Say what you want about Trump, the guy's an ass. But he doesn't try to play it off like he's a saint.

You didn't have to follow the Cavs to see the same pattern of him disappearing for stretches against the Celtics in the ECF that followed in similar fashion in the 2011 Finals.

Las Vegas can get pretty darn hot in the summer. But it's a dry heat.
