its almost riley's destiny to be honest.

before he retires he needs to leave the team in as bad of shape as he possibly can and mortgage as much as he can for his own selfish motives -desperately trying to have one last moment in the sun. But unfortunately for him its winter in Alaska. lol


If that was the case, we’d have Wedtbrook

Wiggy's marry go round of logic continues. Bashes the Heat for putting themselves in a position of mediocrity where we had to trade "assets" to acquire a star player, which we could've signed outright had it not been for contracts. Then suggests we take on a well past his prime star player who's contract would eliminate us from having a change at a 2021 free agent.

Ladies and gentlemen, you can't make this up.

Unless you guys draft another superstar in Wade that walks through the door from the draft you guys aren't getting any big name free agents anyways. You should have gone after RW when you had the chance. What are you going to use to convince big names to come? An overpaid for Jimmy Butthole and Justice Winslow?

This was my post from Monday



This was Wiggy’s reply to me



And his reasoning to @dtgold88

Which was wrong, but at least reasonably worded.

You know @WiggyRuss,

As long as you keep up the vendettas against against individuals and team fans you don’t like, you will continue to be the laughing stock of these boards.

And that is a shame because you actually do have quality input when you are not trolling or talking about 1 of the things you are biased for or against (which is now gotten to be quite a lot).

For the record, I believe I had this right.

because your pot commited now...there is no turning back after you sign a 30 year old Jimmy Butler to a 4 year deal. This is your window. You gotta take advnatage of Butlers good years before he starts losing it.

I dont care who you are - you start losing athleticism in your early 30's and you become more injury prone. Defense and athleticism are always the first to go and its not like butlers a good 3 pt shooter. lol.

you gotta make the push and at least TRY while Durant is recovering from an achilees, Giannis is still not in his prime, Boston just turned over half their team, and the Sixers Embiid and Simmons still arent in their primes.

The amount has nothing to do with it, it was the player they got in Irving, just like what Miami got in Wade. That gave them the ability to get lebron and love just as having Wade gave the heat the ability to get Lebron and Bosh. It's exactly the same. They could have drafted slightly better, but the situation is the same.

No it is not.

You cannot recruit big names through free agency bike Miami can. It literally isn’t possible.

And if LeBron has grown up in say... California, you weren’t getting him back with or without Kyrie. And you know this.

So Jimmy Butler doesn't count as an all-star?

And like I said, get off your computer and play in traffic, bitch.

Westbrook’s jersey will be retired in pretty short order now.

lol, thats great...Jimmy Buthole....lol...so perfect for that guy.

I mean, Butler relies on his athleticism and defense for his value. Hes not a good shooter. - career 34% from 3.

Plus i mean, Butler played 65 games last year and 59 the year before- hes had his share of injuries the last couple years missing like a 1/4 of his games.

Thats what those Thib's Miles will do to a guy- and no one has more Thibs miles than Jimmy Buthole. lol

guys typically dont get healthier as they get older, and their defense and athleticsm dont typcially get better.....well unless you got Ponce over there leading them to the Fountain of Youth below AAA. lolololol

Yet you wanted us to sign Russ (well actually you said it would be a disaster, I'm confused because of the flip flopping you do), but he's .....30.

And if Wade didn't get drafted to Miami what big free agent have they signed before wade? How much success did they have before wade? How many Championships?

Major recruiting still comes down to the star player you draft for the majority of teams including Miami

because he matches up with Butholes prime. Did you suck down some duster this evening or something? cmon man keep up.

Buthole and Westbrook, both at 30, would at least have their primes matchup with eachother.

and like i said- once Durant gets back its not gonna be easy. At least this year Durant is out, Giannis is great but not in his prime, Boston just re-tooled and will likely take some time to put it together and the Sixers have a bunch of head cases an a bunch of injury prone guys even if they have the best talent.

Alonzo Mourning was good for a little while before his kidneys gave out.

I mean, not as good as the Cavs teams with Price and Daughterty, but decent.
