Official Offseason News and Rumors

I think Wade mightve been CLOSE to his prime that first year LeBron was in miami- but i mean---- i dont think he was a the height of his powers like he was in 06----

I dont think we ever saw Wade at the absolute height of his powers with Lebron

Have you seen Russ Irving lately ?

Shump and Hardaway are damn good pieces, but how much is Amare really worth?

Damn good? Really? I wouldn't go that far. Shump hasn't looked anything like the promising player since he came off his injury. And Hardaway, it's too early to tell. All he showed last year was that he can at least be a quality role player, which given he had questions going into the 2013 draft is a big plus for him.

They have potential and still young, but that offer pretty much still sucks.

If this really could have been a summer of Love

And was instead a summer of Klay...

We will pay.

Somehow. Someway.

Someday.

And that's really all there is to say.

Personally, I think it will be soon.

There will be no finals for us in June.

We will stay where we are.

Not complete, but not far.

Until our stars are both old and overpaid.

We may have a couple nice playoff runs.

But no banners in the rafters will be hung.

Unless, of course, Steph has his day.

I agree, but Love doesn't have the likes of Wade or James on the Timberwolves roster. IMO, Bosh had much better players surrounding him, then Love has at Minny.

The roster Bosh had in Toronto was comparable to the one Love has in Minny. Bosh got Toronto to the playoffs. Love, not so much with Minny.

That offer was decline apparently

Before or after Flip stopped laughing.

And Love has Pekovic and Martin, two good secondary options.

I really don't care for that argument. It's like saying mike trout isn't good because he didn't get to the playoffs

You have significant control over where your team is in basketball then you do in football or baseball for that matter.

Exactly. In basketball 1 player makes more of a difference than any other team sport.

How about doubles tennis?

People still play that?

If Bosh was still in Toronto, nobody would give a shit about him. Just like before.

Really?

If Bosh would have gave a shit about Cleveland in 2010, James would have never left.

In Florida they sure do.
I sure don't.
Running+1000 degree weather isn't a scenario I find appealing anymore.
