Re: NBA Off Topic

Some good statistically-backed thoughts on why Gentry is really, really stupid a lot of the time, just how badly our bench sucks, and how it's cost us big.

Re: NBA Off Topic

I know a lot of people did, but a lot of people seriously criticized him for being mentally weak and all that bs.

Bosh's mentally weak criticizms didn't come just from that Finals moment now. There was the whole crying after that regular season loss against the Bulls that helped start that talk. Can't forget the 'we just wanna chill' line either. I think that the majority of the critcizing from that Finals moment was in conjuction with Bosh's previous moments and the general fresh Heat venom of last year.

Re: NBA Off Topic

They don't need Nash and they definitely don't need Terry. Chalmers\Cole are fine and then you get LeBron or Wade bringing the ball. What they need is a big, offensive minded one who can play some defence too.

They need a big but they need someone who can shoot, and create without waiting for Lebron and Wade

Spo doesnt play James Jones, and Battier is worthless on offense most of the time since all he does is shoot 3s which he isnt THAT scary with since he's streaky

Re: NBA Off Topic

Nash would be so redundant in Miami... BUT if he goes to Orlando he will have a big effect.. seriously, lebron has never played with someone who can get him easy baskets? whats dwyane wade? lol imagining a Nash/Lebron pick n roll? how often do the heat run Wade/Lebron pick n rolls?

but why is this Heat fan in here so respectable? lol we can't have that


what i really came in here to say is why is the College dunk contest better every year than the NBA dunk contest??????

Re: NBA Off Topic

Besides the obvious trolls who became Heat fans in 2011, most of the Heat fans here are and have always been respectable....

Never really understood the "omg Heat fan" logic...

wade is a scorer, he rarely gets lebron easy baskets in the half court

Makes no sense that they don't run more pick & rolls though....I really don't get that

wasn't Wade averaging like 6 or 7 assists before Lebron? obviously not a playmaker on the level of Nash but are you telling me he can't get Lebron easy baskets???

yes thats what im telling you, nash is 20 times the playmaker that wade is

but what i'm saying is that its redundant putting him on a team that already has Lebron and Wade.

putting him with Dwight, and Ryan Anderson and whoever else on the wings, that is going to make a contender

Nash with those two great finishers would be sick, his numbers would only get better

Re: NBA Off Topic

And it'd still be a redundant move.

I can see if this was a case where Chalmers has been struggling as the starter and Cole wasn't doing any better, then yeah you go ahead and take a look. But if PG isn't an issue(which it isn't)then why go after him? Why replace 2 quality YOUNG PGs(with one of them filling in his role perfectly) with an older PG?

Re: NBA Off Topic

I'm the only true Heat fan I know here in OK. Sad that people who don't know anything about the NBA are Heat "fans" though. When I went to the OKC Heat game I saw about 30 LeBron jerseys and I was wearing my UD one, and I saw 3-5 Wade Jerseys and one Chalmers one. Sad sad deal.

I think the Heat could definitely use Nash but I'd say it's not the biggest need. A quality big man who can rebound is what we need. A post defender besides UD. Also with all the penetration created by Wade and LeBron we need some spot up shooters, Nash is a very good shooter as well as a playmaker. He would help tremendously in the Halfcourt game as well, which is where the Heat struggled last year against Dallas.

[The 24th Letter]

I'm sorry, pretty much no way Nash on the Heat wouldn't help tremendously....no way one of the best assist men ever isn't going to increase easy baskets at rim for two of the best finishers in the game...

Cole and Rio can be as young as they want to be....let Nash get as many open 3's as they get a game and it's gonna be a problem.
