No Dame or Nurk and they go into New Orleans on the 2nd night b2b and get the w

Such a horrible win by Miami

I did cry that day. Not gonna lie.

I was also 8.

Sissy.

 

[trojanfan12]

Not really because the Pelicans weren’t going to win one with AD.

lol

There are times you should just not hit "post reply"

This was one of them.

 

[trojanfan12]

You don’t think if they get a lottery pick this year that they have a much better chance than they did with just AD? Zion, Ingram and a high lottery pick sounds pretty damn good to me for a guy that can’t stay on the floor.

This was another one of those times.

 

[WiggyRuss]

No, that’s basically what he is saying by wanting to let Kyrie not be held accountable. Lebron has spoke out, wrongly at times, on racial matters and had to cover his tracks. I don’t recall on any of those instances where he ever left the door open for anyone to maybe not be guilty of what he was jumping to his own conclusions about. I don’t like stuff like this on this board, but I’ve had my fn fill of the double standards.

if Dan Gilbert did what Kyrie did- do you think LeBron would be saying the punishment was too harsh - or do you think he would be saying he has to sell the team and their is no place in the NBA for hate- just like he did with Sarver?

I think we all know the answer to that question.

Kyrie should get to play again when Meyers Leonard does.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Yep...thought it might come a little later but we'll see how we handle a losing streak....Garland making a shot would help.

they were always going to have an adjustment period on defense when Garland and Mitchell are sharing a back court. Early on they had some adrenaline and were rolling.....day in day out- they need to figure it out- the defense has not been good in first halves the last couple games. Garland had not played a back to back and obviously got tired vs. the Clips.

They have the talent to make it work- but its going to take some time to adjust.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Again, they didn't want that. They wanted to throw out ridiculous offers so they'd keep him. If they wanted to actually trade him they would have asked for realistic returns.

totally agree---- it was actually pretty smart---- especially since it sated Durant's ego as well---- they could be like "dude- you are amazing- you are signed for 4 years- we looked but just nothing close to value- so we are gonna keep you".

Gives Durant and out from his demand- gives the Nets an out. They actually played that well.

just not good for them that Simmons is a mental midget and Kyrie is crazy.

It's too bad because Marks is a good GM...but they rolled the dice and it feels like they lost.

Royce O Neal, bringing back Patty Mills- and eventually getting Warren were good moves. Especially Royce


Royce, Mills, Warren, Claxton, Harris, Curry, Morris are actually a pretty decent collection of role players.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Royce O Neale is underrated- very good defensively. Can do a little of everything.

Makes sense to me, but I have a very high iq so,,,

You are 0-2

If Kyrie were a role player, his career would be done.

That is how the world works.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Josh Hart is a really good role player.....guy hustles and plays hard.

Putting up almost 9ppg, 9rpg and 5apg.

Lakers don’t need him.

Isnt that what you told me a week or so ago?

I’m actually horrified with how lightly some players and fans are taking this situation.

How is what Kyrie did different?

Fucking Holocaust denier.

But, just like with Watson, outrage and punishment is based on talent level.

Agree and it’s sad.

We shouldn’t have selective outrage.

But, I’m not naive enough to believe it doesn’t exist.

Lots of people believe some untoward shit happened in that Denver hotel room with Kobe.

But, it’s easier to turn a blind eye because we didn’t hear it or see it.

*…..and her undies were a Petri dish of multiple samples *

Kyrie has about 21 million social media followers.

He put that disgusting shit out there for the world to see.

She could have opened a sperm bank.

LOL.
