Speak for yourself for the first statement, I will not be watching their games thank you. I will be loving to hear about them losing on Sportscenter though.

I think it is exactly what LeBron deserves. I hope he watched one of the videos of his Jersey being burned. I hope they take his damn Jersey down.

The NBA just got 1000 times more boring. And the Lakers and Celtics will be in the finals again.

LOL, they are supporting someone, but I'll let you figure out who that is. Here's a hint, he and Durant will form the next REAL rivalry in the next 5-10 years.

Good question. It isn't like they're particularly highly regarded by people when you're discussing the greatest players of all-time or anything. He certainly won't be BETTER than them now. He won't even come close.

If LBJ being talked about as one of the greatest players ever is coming as news to you, I'll just leave it alone then.

I didn't say anything about the Cavs. He could have gone to any number of teams and let them build around him, and it'll still be his team. But he went to the one team with another perennial MVP candidate who has a championship ring. He went and joined Wade, didn't go the the Bulls, Knicks, Nets, or Clippers who all have a little more wiggle room and flexibility than the Miami Heat who now have something like $400,000 in cap space. Why? D-Wade is there. If Bosh was willing to follow LBJ to the Nets and LBJ didn't want that, then it looks like D-Wade was the deciding factor, no?

Yes, we'll all be watching because we'll have no choice.

Well i'm done with this thread tonight.

In closing I think part of my signature applies to the next few years in the NBA.

"may you live in interesting times"

Indeed, indeed.
