Well he was arguably one of the best for a long time, age catches up with everybody.
I’ve always liked wade.
I feel bad for the non bandwagon heat fans, yall very easily could be a bottom of the barrel team if(when,IMO) all the superstars jump ship.

Thanks for your empathy. Wade's age caught up with him very quickly. That's what happens tho when you play for such a long time with very little regard for your body in order to make amazing plays, but that's what made Wade so good even tho he's undersized for his position. Without LBJ and him, we would probably be a .500 team at best right now.
Besides the big 3 there's not many players on the roster that are gonna improve anymore in their careers. I just wonder when we're going to start utilizing Greg Oden a little bit more. It would've been nice to see him out there against Joakim Noah last night.
I really don't think James is going to leave Miami tho. If he does, the only upside is I'll be able to buy seats in the 100 sections for like 50 bucks again.

The way everyone is talking (obviously that doesn’t mean shit) sounds like he’s going to wind up on the Knicks, and Melo is going to LA.
Now that would be sweet.
Don’t know if LBJ will leave for sure but Im pretty positive Melo is leaving New York, and where else would he go? Seems like Boston or LA are the only options for a douche like him.
Should be an interesting year between the draft class and all the FA’s to say the least.

I agree. That would make the most sense if it happens considering it's LBJ's childhood dream to play for the home team at Madison Square Garden.
I'd just be really fucking pissed if James went up there and 'Melo ended up down here. I used to love the way he played and carried himself early in his career. I have no clue wtf happened to him.
I haven't really checked out next year's draft class (or any NCCAB) this year, all I've heard is that it's going to be one of the best classes in a few years.
Free agency is going to be fucking crazy tho.

What do you mean? He was sick or something last night. Spent the night in his hotel room up in Chicago. They fucking torched us. I haven't seen the Heat Play that badly in a couple years.
As far as wade goes, he's a free agent at the end of this season. They've already talked about how if he re-signs he would have to take a very big pay cut from his 20 million a year. I'm sure he'll take the pay cut if LeBron stays.

Oh right on. Joel Anthony works is ass off on the court. He might be undersized, but he plays harder than 90% of players in the NBA for not a lot of money.
It'd be a shame to let him go, but we already have Haslem, Bosh, LBJ, and Oden that can play at the 4 or 5 spots. ------------------
Too bad there's not any games tonight worth watching for me. Utah vs Portland could be interesting tho...

Man people are going to be regretting passing on Andre Drummond. Dude is averaging 14 PPG & 13 boards a night and can't even buy a beer yet. And the Pistons got him with the 9th pick of that draft.
His last 3 games
@ MIL 17 points, 19 rebounds, 3 blocks @ MIA 10 points, 18 rebounds vs PHI 31 points, 19 rebounds, 6 stls, 2 blks
12 double doubles this season in 19 games

Yea niffla. I was just checking out Drummond's stats. He is balling out so far this season. He's a really versatile player.

Crazy thing is, he's doing so much of it off pure instinct and freakish athleticism and size. They don't draw up any plays for him other than oops because he has no post game right now. If he ever adds a decent post game...I mean jeeezus. Only 20 years old.

There's so much talent in the NBA right now. After football, it's going to be nice to get down to some serious focus on basketball.

Even with a raw post game he's still the league leader in FG% at 64.6%.
Like you said, if he starts working on his post game, he has the potential to become a superstar in a couple years.

Yea, I've been slacking on watching NBA games besides the Heat because of football. This AFC wild card race is getting really interesting and the Dolphins actually have a chance to win it so I'm focused on that.
Oh also, I don't know if anyone has noticed but Michael Carter-Williams is averaging just under 4 steals per game. That little dude has hand reflexes like a fucking feline.

Yup. He also had a triple double or two this year right? And some near miss triple dubs? Looks like he's legit. Tall ass PG too.

He had a triple double when he played Orlando. Oladipo had one too 
The rookie of the year candidates went at it.

It's good to see how they are behind quite often and seem to catch up so effortlessly every time. They must be in the right headspace to get it done this year.

Such a shitty game last night. Not saying that just because the Heat lost, but because both teams were shooting around 35% all the way till about halfway through the 3rd quarter.
I give it up to Indiana for stepping it up and making shots when they needed to, even though they had over 20 turnovers. Neither team impressed me last night as much as they should have except for their defense, and Roy Hibbert.

Don’t be snubbing my boy Trey Burke when your talking about best rookies.
He won’t win it because the jazz are fucking horrible and it will take a lot more than that to fix the Jazz, but that kid is a star.
