Such an inspiring day this has been

[HurricaneDij39]

Now that LeBron is going home, actual basketball fans like myself can get back to watching real basketball, while all you Miami bandwagoners can now go back full-time to your Carley Rae Jepsen collection.

I now expect bandwagon trolls BOTSLAYER and Doors to never show themselves on an NBA message board ever again. Unless, of course, they take this thread as a call-out thread.

As a Pacers fan, I'm disappointed that we didn't make good on our opportunities to beat the Heat during the Big Three era. Though knowing what this means for the integrity of the game, I couldn't be more excited.

I've said for awhile now that Pat Riley is the biggest asshole in basketball, and especially know that Mr. $tern is no longer commish. For those of you that don't remember, he basically tanked the entire 2007-08 NBA season, and that allowed him to deplete his entire payroll by 2010. In the span four years, Riley's fortune had gone from "luck of the Irish" to "karma to the devil".

BUILT NOT BOUGHT Go Pacers!!! Cavs and Bulls fans, the Central Division is still our until you take it from us.

Yet Riley still got 2 titles out of it. How many did the Pacers get? Complaining about Riley putting the thing together is stupid. It's like making fun of a guy because Kate Upton broke up with him in front of everyone. Yeah, its embarrassing but he still fucked Kate Upton.

Unfortunately this helps the spurs. Now they don't have to worry about a megateam and Pop is gonna continue his resting aging veterans crap.

You hit the nail on the head, Riley is a big idiot asshole that finally got his comeuppance.

Clever metaphor aside, Riley merely opened the door the FA's to sign, he is given way too much credit for what he actually accomplished.

Wildturkey should have used Jennifer Lawrence in his metaphor instead of Kate Upton, and then Sportsman would have liked the metaphor better.

Well, I at least got to watch the Heat beat the Pacers in grand fashion three years in a row. It was fun. But it wasn't your pathetic franchise that sent Lebron back to Cleveland. Hey, at least you guys got the #1 seed last season. When's the banner ceremony? I want to make sure I stream it.

Have fun next year not have Stephenson and overpaying Hilbert. Riley may be an asshole. but at least his team's win which is more than I can say about the Pacers.

:rollseyes: Riley has had more of an impact on the game than your entire organization.

Says the kid who was a Bulls/Jordan fan up until Jordan quit the league for a 2nd time.

Then became a Pacers fan when they made it to the Finals against LA.

I'd still rather be where we are than where the Heat are heading into 2014-15. Don't be like the Laker idiots around here and live for the past. Just look at where it's gotten their team today.

Well gee, we got to the conference finals. I'm sure 26 other teams would love to be in the position we're in, 27 now that LeBron left Miami. It never ceases to amaze me how much hate we've drawn simply because the jealous fan think he/she is taking "the high road" by rooting for the known commodity in Miami and trashing the Pacers.

Assuming we re-sign Stephenson (he CLEARLY wants to be here) and unload some excess big man depth, we're sitting pretty. Favorites in the East as far as I'm concerned.

I was ten then, idiot. If I am indeed considered a bandwagon fan, clearly I didn't jump on the right ones, as the Pacers and Nuggets have a combined zero NBA titles. At least I'm able to distinguish myself from the usual bandwagon fan that roots for the team that has their favorite "name recognition player", which is pussification.

Oh, and does anyone else remember when our buddy and resident 45-year-old virgin Jim Doors claimed, without any linked sources, that Kyle Lowry was on the outs with the Raptors because "David Aldridge said so"? Turns out Lowry got more money from Toronto than I expected. Good for him, he deserves it.

Not at all. This is where troll threads go. Perhaps, in the future, you can just start these types of threads here and save me the trouble.

As for the Lakers past, it has gotten them to the exact same place that the Pacers are at. Sitting home without the 2014 NBA Championship.

Of course, we can console ourselves with the 16 that the Lakers have won.

Meanwhile, Pacers fans can talk about how they finally got HCA vs. the Heat last year.
