lol, its just too funny to me--- for these guys to just come after me personally for days- and each day- more news keeps coming out CONFIRMING the EXACT FREAKING things i was saying. It just cracks me up to no end...its so freaking funny.

i wonde when turnup comes out of his hidey hole today and what kind of fantasies he is goingto spin. in the immortal words of Bart Scott- CANT WAIT!, lol :dhd:


i have hbo in my apartment- and caught some of the TERRIBLE entourage movie a couple days ago---- the only funny part was Drama at the end accepting the Golden Globe...and sharing a sentiment that i feel right now

"VICTORY!!!!!""" LOL :yes:

And despite his behaviour he's STILL better than Thompson.

Which is what this thread is all about.

shit dude- if just PURE TALENT was the only consideration- Whiteside would be WAAAY up there. If he was a model citizen and a hard worker and a guy you could rely on- id probably take him over Thompson. But thats just not the case

we have two guys that are POLAR OPPOSITES on that spectrum

One guy- GREAT teammate, amazing work ethic, no ego, is the current NBA leader in consecutive games played with over 330- is NEVER hurt-----

One guy- been blackballed from the league for a term of years, comes back- takes a cheap shot at Kelly Olnyk and is TOSSED and suspended during a playoff race....All the Heat apologist say it wont happen again. LESS THAN A YEAR later---- gets ejected and suspended during a playoff race.....in between? Swearing at a reporter on twitter because he got his wittle feelings hurt, being called out by his teammates for babying his injuries ETC ETC>

if JUST PLAIN 100% talent dictated the effect you have on your team and the effect you have on WINNING in the NBA---- it would be VERY difficult not to pick whiteside---however- when you have a historical shithead on Whitesides level---- and an absolutely 1st rate teammate, worker, egoless guy like Thompson- that has to be given SUBSTANTIAL effect

Turnup did a classical mistake...his ego MADE him support a guy that deep down KNEW didnt deserve support...

personally I didnt think he would blow up until he was getting thrashed in the playoffs Olnyk style on Love last year......I didnt realize it would take a backup Euro on the Spurs for him to lose his mind and ONCE AGAIN embarass himself and his organization AND the blind HEat fans that were backing him.

It was a stupid play, no doubt.
Who ever said he wasn't a head case?
Like I posted on the Heat board, hopefully teams get scared off and we get him for a price that makes sense.
He's still >>>>Tristan.

And as far as the stupidity, which it was, watch the video then watch the one of JR vs Celts.
JR's was worse, yet you're on his balls like white on rice, and his stupidity came in a playoff series when Cavs were already short.

Tristans are a dime a dozen, not a knock on him, but at his cost you need to be above average at something other then rebounding.
You can get the same production from Taj Gibson if he was on the Cavs.

Wait.... did wiggy ever take that bet?

Unless the league takes away the Flagrant 2.... that's a 1-game suspension, right?

I don't see anyone changing their vote.
Whiteside>>>>>>>Tristan despite anything that has ever happened throughout his career.

What is the value of a max player body with a high schooler head?
We will soon find out.
We know the value of Tristan league wide. 8-10M, at best, unless you have James negotiating your contract.

He didn't, cause he's a pussy.
I'm not positive, but I think its just ejection from game though.
I don't think he's suspended unless the league further penalizes which they wouldn't IMO for that play.

did you see the play?


and no- like i said- i didnt think he was going to lose his mind until he was getting mercilessly destroyed i nthe playoffs like Olnyk- something i said earlier on here....that- and THERE WAS NO WAY im not posting during the Cavs playoff run -especially against the Heat--- well that AND i already have a bet that was made at the beginning of the season (albiet i probably won that one already and was told it was ok to move on)


but man...just too funny....



no matter what- like i have said on here MANY MANY TIMES BEFORE


time is a GREAT vindicator.

LOL you want to bet on that?

ILL bet you he gets suspended by the league. Repeat offender? DID you watch it? ITs obviously a purposeful elbow- your OWN COACH said it was not a basketbal lplay- of COURSE hes getting suspended.

This thread wasn't about supporting anyone,
It was who is the better player.
Nothing has changed.
Ive said ALL ALONG that I don't think Whiteside will be here next year, but I hope he is at the right price.

NOW you want to bet?
You're such a pussy.

Heat don't play now for 12 days.
Who even knows if he'll still be here then, although my guess is he is.

Still doesn't change anything here.
He's >>>>>>Tristan.

And why the crickets on the JR comparison?

like i just said above--- if all else is equal- and JUST 100% talent was the only consideration - it would be very difficult not to take Whiteside...

but just like when he was blackballed from the league after failing with the Kings- he didnt fail because he didnt have the athleticism/talent etc. He failed because he has the mental capacity of a petulant child.


When you have 2 guys- that are TOTAL opposite ends of the spectrum-

one guy-
egoless
never gets hurt- always plays- BEST IN THE LEAGUE at it in fact
Extremely hard worker
great teammate
will NEVEr complain about not getting the ball, about not starting etc.


and the other guy
babys his injuries
takes cheap shots at other players
get suspended during playoff races and lets his teammates down
acts like a little baby when he gets criticized by the media

well that- and the fact that his team plays better defense when he is on the pine...

to me its a VERY VERY easy decision. You cant build a championship organization when you constantly have a shithead like Whiteside undermining the team.
