2017 NBA Offseason Thread

If Lopez was so good then why did you have to exaggerate his points per game average by 20%?

I accidentally posted his 36mpg scoring numbers.

Riley is garbage.....this guy is "on fire".....

 

[Black Adam]

Remember a couple of years ago when the Suns were looking to have an all point guard starting 5?

The Nuggets figure the problem with the Suns idea is that they just didn't have enough size.

So they are going with the all power forward starting 5.

and as all of us know, size IS important...

oh, i mean for baketball, too...

 

[Black Adam]

He's gonna have some struggles, like most rookies do.

His Dad's big mouth will have guys going at him the first few months.

That's why this is a good move, if it happens.

I would much rather have Hill than Rondo, if I'm the Lakers.

CL stamp of approval...

???who said that...???

is wiggy around and i missed it...?

What has he done?

Tell me.

"Sign LeBron James"


Holy shit, thats crazy that the rest of the GMs in the league were too stupid to think of that.

Wade fell into his lap and LrBron chose to play with Wade.

Riley out a shit team around them and instead of winning 4 straight, they were lucky to scrape off 2.

And then when LeBron left, Riley butchered the remains.

I ask again. What has he done?

so the '06 title shouldn't be on his resume...?

just asking...

 

[Black Adam]

i mean i'm sorry. but Pat Slick imo is anything BUT "garbage"...

Hey if you want to credit any of those titles to him doing anything special other than getting lucky then be my guest.

I never gave the Celtics GM any credit for the fact that Paul Pierce fell to them attempt overall either. I'm not going to give Pat Riley credit for the Pistons being stupid and drafting Darko Milicic and letting Dwyane Wade fall straight into Riley's lap.


Are we supposed to give him credit for the fact that Miami was wretched the year before and they had the fourth overall pick in the draft? I don't know that doesn't to me scream out great GM work. That screams out to me as right place right time.


And he put together a dogshit supporting cast for that Big 3 in Miami when they chose to come play together.


Dog


Shit


I think Pat Riley is an atrocious GM

ok, guess the only thing i'm not understanding here is why SHOULDN'T he get any credit? if he get's "credit" for putting "dogshit" together, but "lucky" when the Heat succeed imo that's a little hypocritical...


just trying to understand where you're coming from here...

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Has Wiggy got an alt or something?

 

[Black Adam]

Has Wiggy got an alt or something?

honestly i was late on this debate. does the guy just not like Pat Slick, is it a comparison between him and Ainge...?

that's what i was trying to figure out...

What has he done. Thats my question.

I'll say again. I give him zero credit for Dwyane Wade falling into his lap due to the Piston stupidity and for LeBron James choosing to come here and play with him.

Pat Riley had nothing to do with LeBron James decision to come to Miami.

 

[AlpacaWine]

Again other than the fact that Bosh, James and Wade all decided to play together regardless of who the general manager in Miami was. What did Riley do? Look at The supporting cast that he surrounded them with.


James Jones. Mike Miller. Juwan Howard. Udonis Haslem. Chris Anderson. Joel Anthony. Mike Bibby. Norris Cole.

Ray Allen and Mario Chalmers were the only worthy teammates those three ever had.

What has Riley really done in Miami?

 

[DJ]

[DJ]

Riley hasn't done shit with the Lakers, Knicks, or Heat......


TOTAL FREAKING BUM,

 

[AlpacaWine]

Hey if you can't answer the question then you might as well put words into the other person's mouth right?
TOTAL FREAKING BUM,

 

[Hambombs]

Not sure why the Bucks, Knicks, Magic aren't chasing him.

Especially the bucks, george hill is the perfect fit right next to Giannis

 

[Hambombs]

Warriors might get swaggy p lol

By your standards all GMs are terrible. They all ride great players to championships.
