[The Q]

Didn't your team just do that in 2022?

and do you see me going easy on them?

Kind of weird that Wood, Oubre and Warren are all still unsigned.

They may not be starters but they are rotational players on a good team.

 

[DJ Fieri]

None of the 3 are perfect but they are all players who can be part of an 8-9 man rotation.

Maybe they are asking for too much?

How much is Thanasis paying them to be on the roster?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Lue was on the All the Smoke....and he pushed Bron in a certain game 7 vs the Warriors. Bascially, called him out.

Great fucking story. LOL.

Even though the guy was often called Lebron's puppet he was definitely one of, if not the only coach here, who was willing to call out Lebron in front of the team.

Assuming that story was about him pretty much telling Lebron to get his head out of his ass and play like he's capable?

Did he also convince to refs to ignore goaltending?

 

[The Q]

Ooh.

Don’t believe they would since Wade killed them in 2006.

2011 more than cancels it out

2011 more than cancels it out

You mean when he and LeBron took turns over-deferring to each other before they figured it out?

No, it really doesn’t.

No, just no.

SMH.

They should’ve squashed that team

And bron couldn’t guard that midget who dribbled circles around him

So, because they failed to win one title they should have, that outweighs everything else Wade accomplished in his career?

No. That’s not what I said

It just sets a bad precedent and I hope Portland maintains this stance. These guys are getting crazy money for supposedly sticking with their team. If that is no longer the case the supermax should go away.

Portland is willing to trade him but Miami refuses to give up anything worth his true value. Portland has been talking with Boston now that Jaylen Brown is locked up. Problem again is that the Heat isn't willing to part with picks or pieces in the hope that they can get Dame for pennies on the dollar. Gut feeling is that Portland is going to find a taker with just enough to offer to get Boston involved so they can unload Brogdon and Dame will end up somewhere that he's not going to be very happy about. Just MHO

Well, you did say that it overshadows Wade’s 2006 Finals where he won MVP and averaged 34.7 PPG.

That is a pretty wild opinion even for you.

The heat were the better team in both series

They only didn’t repay cause some dude ran into Shaq’s leg and wade had that random injury

They were supposed to do it

So it means less than blowing one that should’ve been a sweep

Nah.

Of course they were the better team in 2011.

Being by far the best player on a championship team is not something a lot of players in the history of the league can claim

Wade can. And his ring came at the expense of the Mavericks.
