I'd rather have Tristan or Whiteside Poll

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I think earlier in the season you guys were a little skeptical of giving him a max contract even though you knew it would likely take that. His play throughout the season certainly warrants one. Will Riles have the cap space to make that happen? It will be interesting to see how this one plays out.

He's said he wants to stay, so if that's the case I'm hopeful they'll work it out.
Maybe the no state tax factor will allow him to sign
here for a bit less?

Certainly could. Regardless, his raise is going to be crazy big.

Na he posted them to give an example of the kind of contract Hassan should expect. He followed that up with this tweet.

Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith has been sued for $2.5 million by a man he got into an encounter with outside a New York City nightclub last November, according to documents obtained by ESPN.com.

Justin Brown, who was 19 at the time, approached Smith at a pizza shop at about 4 a.m. after Smith had left 1Oak, a well-known club in the Chelsea section of Manhattan. In a lawsuit filed Thursday, Brown claims Smith turned down a request for a photo and then choked and struck him in his head and neck area. Brown is suing for physical injuries and emotional distress.

Smith was asked about the lawsuit following the Cavaliers' 107-93 win over the New York Knicks on Saturday night.

"No, I ain't got no comment on that," Smith said. "It is what it is. So, we'll just see what happens."

and @TurnUpTheHeat congrats on winning the bet--- all though- it was just one week and this is the last night.....

your Heat are at 5th place- and a full 2 and a half games out of 9th! bravo


pretty much where- at hte beginning of the season i thought they would be--- lower half of the east standings, on pace for about 45 wins. A toothless veteran team no threat to the conferences Elite.

And you were saying?

Good thing he's not a fuck up like Whiteside.

Smith was not arrested for the incident, and the Manhattan District Attorney declined to file charges in January after a two-month investigation. There is a video of the incident captured on a security camera, sources said.

"If they have the audacity to file a frivolous claim against J.R., we will counterclaim for defamation and defend the suit aggressively," said Alex Spiro, Smith's attorney. "This was a cash grab from the start."

I left that part out on purpose.
Lawyers on both sides always have plenty of spin.
I have no idea what really happened, but point is that something did happen and it's the same person who has had meltdowns in NBA games.
Do I really care? Not at all, but Wiggys comments are comical when it comes to
bashing Whiteside while ignoring what a distraction JR can or has been.


And, you won our bet.
Send me the avi whenever u want.

the fact that the DA declined to file charges "after a two-month investigation" tells you all you need to know. Especially if there is a video of the incident.

I have no idea how the other side could even begin to think they would win if the DA has declined to press charges after consulting a VIDEO of the incident.

Exactly. That's why I posted that part of the article.

Do you still think Thompson is better than Whiteside?

* Ummmm, errrrrrrrrrr, various sounds of hesitation*

 

[bksballer89]

Safe to say @WiggyRuss won't show his face in here until 1 of the 2 things happen.

1) Whiteside gets a flagrant foul

2) The Heat are eliminated from the playoffs.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

He briefly popped in a few posts ago to defend another Cavs scumbag.

But no mention of Thompson or Whiteside
