Series Thread: 6) Miami Heat vs. 3) Philadelphia 76ers

[DJ]

Are you making accusations of bandwagoning? Kinda sad to do that after your team got spanked.

Most of us joined from a now-defunct sports forum and had been posting there since the mid 2000s.

He's actually right. Not saying you but others coming out of the woodwork, sort of like the Raps fans.

Down by a few points in the 2nd quarter? I was driving home from the shore. Wasn’t concerned then. Still not concerned. Any 76ers fan worried about the matchup against Kelly Olynyk probably worries a little too much.

Driving home?

Let me guess, from studying for the bar exam?

Cause we've heard that one before....lol

Did you know your screen name appears at the bottom of the screen when you are viewing a thread?

I'm just asking for a friend...lol

I did concede that. He has a nice game here and there. He is far from a 76ers killer.

Here and there? Yeah you clearly haven't paid attention to Kelly much this year which I wouldn't expect..... Stick to talking about your team

 

[Black Adam]

Makes no sense.
Why pay him if you wont play him?
If your mindset is trading him, you’re killing your asking price.
Whatever the case, im ok with seeing it blow up in Spoelstras face tonight.
He allowed Brown to coach both teams.

^^^this right here^^^...

A lot can change between game 1 and 2.

This series is far from over.

*Waves the Heat are #1 foam finger*

Well you're one of the few who posted on this board all season long. I can think of 3 who's been here since september/october. The other posters just showed up on here 2 weeks ago.

Yeah, I don’t know where all the 76ers fans came from. I’d appreciate it if they posted in the general NBA forum more often. There are a lot of great NBA fans on here, they’re missing out.

 

[DJ]

he's supposed to be "the next LeClown"...
































...which, incidentally, is a fair enough reason to dislike ANY player...

Personally, I don't think he's close to James or Magic. He's more Pippen to me, minus the defense.

Not a killer.

Just a unique skill set.

 

[bksballer89]

Having no expectations for your team in the playoffs is fun

Are there more?

Yeah, they should come...especially for the playoffs.

I don't think you are a bandwagon fan.

You, Sparhawk, and flyerhawk are regulars.

But, I have seen a few new ones....

It's all good to me.

He's much bigger than Pippen.

He might be faster than LeBron.

He's more athletic than Magic.

If Simmons ever develops an outside shot, he could be truly great.

Rondo never developed one and he was just another good player and major headcase.

 

[bksballer89]

How did teams in the East allow Philly to get both Ilyasova and Belinelli when they were bough out?

is what it is...

I can't wait for all the Kings bandwagon fans to show up when their process is finally completed.

So we're looking at 2031?

Yeah. I actually like him a lot. He’s frustrating to play against. He’s a good player. My 5 or 6 comment was probably an exaggeration. They could put Covington, Simmons, or Embiid on him though and he’d have trouble.

 

[knowyourenemy]

Driving home?

If I post from my phone and leave safari open, will it show me as lurking? Because I definitely was driving home from the shore.

No doubt.

Rondo never developed one and he was just another good player and major headcase.

Rondo is a winning player, though... can lift a whole offense on his back.

And if we're comparing the two, Ben is like Rondo on steroids... higher floor and ceiling. He's gonna be a handful and then some even if he never shoots a lick.

Yeah, hella great pickups off the buyout market.
