Your opinion of the Heat should mean what to me?


Where’s the decade post?
you talk about the Heat with me constantly and do so because you don't care what I think? As mentioned, in addition to comprehension issues, you really lack self control dontcha?

Already answered the decade post Q.

by the way, never new Mayfield was that much of an asshole. I was reading on the NFL boards that he was disrespecting one of this year's rookie QB's for no apparent reason...
Comment was unnecessary, but was blown out of proportion some. I know, big shock. He also said he did not think he would go #1.

LeBron has been gone 5 years, not 6, correct?

In those 5 seasons the Heat has won 209 regular season games and 8 playoff games.
For the Cavs to surpass that, they will have to win an average of 47.5 games the next 4 seasons plus win 9 playoff games.
No fucking way that is happening.

So how about this, we make a 10k vcash bet right now, and let it sit in pending until summer of '23?

Of course you won't actually bet, but you will keep posting the same bullshit!
of course it isn't happening. I think we all know the Cavs are not trying to win so winning early was not a goal at all.

Amusing there are some who "liked" your comment who know this and even acknowledge this is the way a team in this arket needs to do it.

Money earned based on SUCCESS.
That was the point.
You don’t find it odd that @WiggyRuss feels he is more qualified then Pat Riley to run an NBA team?
He said he could have done a better job than Riley the last half decade. If you were told 5 years ago in 6 years you'd be projected to go 43-39 would you have said, "sure sign me up"

FYI - your answer should have nothing to do with the Cavs so try and stay focused.

How many times here, have you seen a poster honestly say they are more qualified for the job?
That’s only thing we’re talking about.

Aren't you one who thinks others can’t comprehend?
If you are saying a guy made a awful pick, signed a bad player, etc are you not implying you have someone better in mind to pick/sign? Wouldn't that mean you'd have done a better job?

More talking to you like a 4-year-old?

Discussing the Heat with you is not me caring if you like the way they do things, is it?

And answered the decade post?
How? There is no post that I recall.
Find it.
You search everything else.

man....i sure hope the Jazz can put it all together this year. Its going to be an interesting team to watch. They have all the ingredients to really put it together

-a true star level player in Donovan Mitchell who i think is going to take the next step this year and really become one of the better players in the league

-the best center in the league in Gobert- whos offense keeps improving while his defense is hands down the best in the league

-a nice couple very nice shooters that arent amazing athletes but play pretty solid team defense in Ingles and Bogdon

-I like their back court bench guys in Exum and Mudiay--- both playmakers-- one more defensive oriented, one more offensive oriented

-and their bench bigs are not bad either---both solid team guys that know how to play the game in Ed Davis and Jeff Green

I really hope this team can play together, get some chemistry and make some noise in the West. They could beat anyone.

As far as the Lakers chances of coming out of the West, I'm actually a little more worried by the Jazz than even the Clips.

Please take that shit somewhere else.
He said that as of today, he is more qualified to run the Heat then Riley.

As far as your nonsensical rambling, he , @WiggyRuss , said Josh Jackson was a franchise changing player for at least 7 years, amongst tons of other missed predictions.

I’ll teach you something today, most people in life have a job to match their qualifications.

Riley is the NBA.
Wiggy is an office boy.

Cavs first 6 years post LeBron will def. be better than the Heats---

You seriously believe that? Through 5 of those 6 seasons for the Heat, they are 209-201 and made the playoffs twice, getting to the second round once. The Cavs in their first season were 19-63, already 18 games behind the Heat in their first non-Lebron season. The Cavs would have to average 47.5 wins for the next 4 years to catch up to the Heat.

NOT A CHANCE IN HELL, lol.

I wouldn't rule them out to at least contend in the West, but do agree once this run is over possible they're no more likely than the cavs to contend again.

Disagree completely. That new court is a money-printing machine and people will always prefer living in the Bay Area over the mistake by the lake. The only lucky occurrence that changed the path for the Cavs was a hometown kid becoming an era-defining star and actually falling into their hands in the draft. Odds against that happening again?

There's a reason, just not a good one - self-confidence issues.

I posted similar and challenged him to bet.
After this year they’ll need to average winning 55+/- per and 9 playoffs games over next 3 seasons.

As usual, he rambled with his dick in his mouth.

Let’s not forget original stint failed.
Needed Riley to get him over the hump.
The 1.7% Wiggins pick is what brought him back.
Worked out, but as you stated, happen again?
I’m not thinking so.

Yeah, the Cavs have some decent talent there but I can't see him having that much success. Certainly not enough to eclipse the post-Lebron Heat.
