I'd rather have Tristan or Whiteside Poll

[TurnUpTheHeat]

ohh ok i get it hes injured again.

Apparently he is not injured, and even if for some reason he was, so what?
You act like he's injury prone, but then say Kyrie isn't?
It has something to do with this thread or anything discussed?

He could play partially injured, and still be a better, more important player than Tristan.

The Heat got beat yesterday because CP3 got hot down the stretch.
Started with a deep, deep 3, as the shot clock was expiring after a nice defensive possession by the Heat.

It won't be the last time we lose and it won't be the last time he is the reason the Clippers win.


You're ego is injured because of the abuse you've taken here...we get it...

So, why not accept the bet and at least try to save some face?

your damn right i am scared of not being able to post in a potential Heat Cavs series!!!!!!!!

Biggest pussy, cop out excuse of all time. Especially given how unlikely it is that they will see each other in the first round.

Bottom line, you spew more pure bullshit than anyone on here and don't have the balls to back it up.

I addressed it.
I changed proposed bet to first Cavs series that didn't involve Heat..

Wiggy's a bitch. That's all I've gathered from this thread. Well, that and that Whiteside is clearly the better player.

 

[Heatles84]

Thompson's an average player, but elite rebounder. The one thing that Tristan is elite at, and Whiteside does it better.

Tom Haberstroh, ESPN Insider: TheMiami Heat, though you can quibble about whether they qualify as a contender. They beat Charlotte last week with zero 3-pointers made, but that was a mirage. Having Goran Dragic and Dwyane Wade on the same team without a fleet of floor-spacers (translation; with Whiteside on the floor) is like buying a Porsche and filling the gas tank with mud.

 

[WiggyRuss]

if the Lakers will acutally give up assets for Whiteside- get Nance and/or Clarkson...and move on...

The spacing has been an issue this season, but it certainly isn't Whitesides fault.
It falls on Riley's shoulders for not addressing the needs for perimeter shooters.

We know Wade isn't going anywhere.
IMO, it's much easier to find another PG then a dominating force in the middle.

The move might be to try to turn Dragic into another combo 1-2 guard who prefers to stretch the court vs facilitate ( like a Kyrie).


All that being said, it doesn't change anything written on this thread.
Whiteside >>>>>Tristan and your pussy is >>>>>>big for running your mouth for 30 pages and then not have the balls to bet on the words you wrote.

Somehow, some way...it's Whitesides fault.

I saw that and he still hasn't accepted. Hence, the biggest pussy, cop out of all time.

Haberstroh is clearly an idiot and has something against Whiteside. Even with Whiteside on the bench, there are no floor spacers on the team except the hot and cold Gerald Green. As turnup said, how is this Whiteside's fault? It is the front office job to find floor spacers.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I don't think there has been even close to 1 point that Wiggy threw at us that wasn't chopped down like a cherry tree.

And before we get another 1000 word surmon about how Whiteside sucks, and doesn't belong in the conversation with Gasol, Drummond and Cousins how about considering that those 3 teams are a combined 611-743 since they joined them and that includes the Grizzlies being 75 games over .500.

Kings w/Cousins are 152-294.
Pistons w/Drummond are 117-182.

Chris Paul runs four straight pick-and-roll plays to isolate Hassan Whiteside and expose the fact he wouldn't dare step out to defend. Doc Rivers yells "Keep doing it until they stop it, damn it." Spoelstra responds by putting Bosh back in the game. Doc sees Bosh at scorers table and says they're getting a mobile big in the game. Bosh tells Doc, "I ain't a big any more. Though y'all knew that."



Michael WallaceESPN Staff Writer
Doc Rivers just told the referee in advance that the Clippers would be intentionally fouling Hassan Whiteside seconds before it happened. Sort of like he was ordering from a menu. Doc then turns to scorers table and sarcastically jokes, "Y'all like this intentional fouling stuff? Well, me too."
lol....too funny


WHAT YOU GUYS DIDNT QUOTE DOCS quote? just Steve Clifford sucking off Whiteside? LOL...not Doc Rivers just EXPLOITING him OVER AND OVER defensively.....

its just so awesome...through all the noise, i can pretty much get on here every other day or so and see a LEGITIMATE criticism of Whitesides get totally swept under the carpet by homers in rose colored glasses.


So- LET ME GET THIS STRAIHGIT--on one end the Clippers are running an action that just abuses Whiteside defensively- and on the other side they planned on putting him on the line because he sucks ass at shooting. SOUNDS LIKE AN ALL STAR TO ME BOYS!!!!! i cant wait to see the creativity to discount this...lol.

 

[WiggyRuss]

at 24 years old, coming off a double double appearances in the Finals- Tristan Thompson works himself from bench player into the starting lineup as the season goes on for the East leading Cavs- because its just clear the Cavs are a better team with him on the floor.

Hassan Whiteside loses his starting job to AMARE STOUDEMIRE....that might not have been a terribly embarrassing quote half a decade ago. Maybe they are just trying to get used to playing without him since hes gonna be dealt since Riley knows he wont pay a guy that just offends the principals which he builds a team on????

I mean the picture just keeps getting clearer and clearer.



gotta give some major props to Stat- he looked like he was done! Man- I didnt know he would be playing so well that he would displace "possibly the most dominant center in the game" though!.......but ya know- in the grand scheme of things- its probably BETTER to bring the "possibly most dominant center in the game" off the bench? RIGht? cmon you can spin this somehow!

Heat: Whiteside took his first charge of the season

???

I just saw that at the end of the Clippers/Heat recap....is that true???? thats the ONLY charge he has taken all year? HOLY SHIT - maybe this guy really doesnt know what he is doing......that is insane to me. Varejao freaking seems to get 2 a game in 15 minutes!!!!...i mean- i understand he goes for blocks but geez......Honestly---its just ridiculus

the more and more I research this and get more and more info- and the more the season goes along- it just could not be getting clearer and clearer this guy is simply overrated as hell and not someone to gamble on.

are you seriously trying to make some kind of argument that Whiteside is even half as good as Drummond or Cousins or Gasol?

More reason why you should not talk if you did not watch the game.

1) whiteside was never intentionally fouled. Teams stopped using hack a hassan since November

2) if a team is switching the pick and rolls, every team will team going to get match up as a center is obviously big and slow and would have difficulty staying in front of a point guard.

Shot blockers doesn't usually try to draw charges. They try to block shots. This isn't new to the nba. Tell us how many charges deandre or davis has drawn

Wiggy still clinging desperately to his already ruined comments and still without the balls to accept turnups bet. Color me shocked.
