2015-16 NBA Eastern Conference OFFICIAL THREAD

[WiggyRuss]

Whiteside just played his 82nd career game so calm the fuck down.. His stats are pretty damn good for a rookie season.
No question building a team moving forward you take Whiteside over Wade.
Bosh vs Whiteside long term? IDK, prob Whiteside, BUT Bosh is a VERY skilled player also who is already under contract, so as much as Riley might like to or not like to make a different choice, his hands might be tied.

And, Wade will never lead another team to a championship. He's way past being that season long, numero uno.
Dragics role should and will grow if the Heat want to improve, and if it doesn't they made a 90M mistake.

As far as James, still glad he's gone cause we'd still have as many rings as when he was here.
He's going to do another 1 year deal next year and then the super max in 2 years when he's what..going on 33 with another 100000 miles on his body.
By the end of that contract he will prob look worse then Kobe has the last couple in L.A. and thats just figuring age, wear and tear without considering injury.

it sure looks like from all those quotes that YOU needed to calm the fuck the down- and now that reality is biting you in the ass you are not so happy about it and as defensive as you could possibly be.

He's

better than Horford, better than Love, Aldridge, Bosh.

give me a fucking break.

I am so glad this is all happening. It freaking cracks me up.

He's a better shot blocker/rebounder then any of the 4, easily.
I never said he was a better all around skilled basketball player then any of them, he's not.
He's what? 7'2"? He does exactly what he should do, and has plenty of time to grow the rest of his game.

Hell, it took James 7 years and and ass whipping in the Finals by Dallas for him to decide he needed to use his size/strength to develop a post game.

Again, Whiteside has played 82 NBA games.

Reality is that you can't read and comprehend because Whiteside has done everything I expected he would do so far

you said you would rather have Whiteside for the long haul over all those guys at one point or time- i would BE GLAD to quote the posts

just face it

you got WAAAY to excited about this guy- and tried to coronate him as one of the best in the league- in the same group as multi time all stars and guys that have been doing it for years- guys with great work ethics that have been entrusted franchises.

hes SIMPLY NOT THAT TYPE OF GUY- and never will be.

 

[ChrisGar15]

Holy crap, the Celtics tv guys make the cavs tv guys look like unbiased professionals. Hands down the most biased, obnoxious, unentertaining color commentary for a game I've ever heard.

Minus 2 Tommy Points for you.

"hes SIMPLY NOT THAT TYPE OF GUY- and never will be."

THAT quote should be directed at K.Love... lol


I still rather would have Whiteside, but my vision of the what I thought Dragic and the offense would look like, hasn't materialized, BUT that isn't Whitesides fault except for his FT shooting.
The Heat offense has been all over the road, BUT, it appears they are coming closer and closer to figuring things out.
Bottom line, it's been 1/4 of a season with a roster which never played together.
Jury is still out, and Cavs are still without a banner....so maybe you should focus more on that.
Heat has been, and will always be fine..

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

@WiggyRuss

Answer these 2 questions please.

1. How much will Whiteside be paid next year?

2. Who would you rather have on the Cavs roster: Whiteside, Tristan, or Mozgov?

Been that way since Johnny Most. Everything about that organization is revolting.

 

[bksballer89]

Lopez is the best offensive center in basketball. Not even close

 

[bksballer89]

He's dominating Whiteside even though Whiteside has challenged just about every shot.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Took the Bulls -3.5. After the Lakers broke my heart by winning I have no faith in the Bulls. I was sure the Bucks -2.5 was as close to a lock as you can get.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Gonna get my prostate checked in a few years. It's the leading killer of men.....more so than heart attack.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Comparing Love to Whiteside is pretty stupid. Love before he came to Cleveland was easily considered a top 10 player and best PF in basketball. Comparing the 2 is pretty stupid. Whiteside is a solid player but he isn't a star or superstar.

And usually the reason why Whiteside doesn't play in the 4th is because the opponent downsize and the heat are forced to match up. Last week for example, Washington went extremely small and had Dudley at C.

What is Love excuse?

On point.

 

[SilverFalco8]

Let's Go Bulls. 43-37.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Great message to send the Celtics? Seriously?

One team is loaded with All-Stars and expected to make it out of the ECF.....the other team is a very young team and a 6-8 seed at best.

 

[bksballer89]

Nice bounce back by Miami to win 3 in a row this week after losing all 3 games last week.

2 road wins is nice as well

 

[bksballer89]

Whiteside went for 20 and 13 while Lopez finished with 25 and 6. Good battle.

 

[trojanfan12]

I'm sorry but isn't running your mouth the reason behind that hideous avi? Goodness, just have several seats.

@Wiggy calling out anyone for running their mouth.

Uh, hate to break it to you, but those posts you quoted, proved you wrong, not turnup. They said exactly what he said they did, not what you tried to turn them into.

Was just about to post something to that effect myself before I saw your post. All home team commentators are homers to some extent. But starting with Johnny Most, Celtics commentators are hands down the worst.

It's why Celtics fans think that refs are responsible for every loss the Celtics have suffered in their history.
