The Linsanity continues!

Wow, Lebron James is such a fuckin' idiot. Doesn't he realize that Miami is the only fan base that embraces him, but still has the nerve to say this....

If Miami fans have any sense, they will boo Lebron during his introduction when the Heat return from their road trip.

In other words, "Cleveland is racking up a bunch of 1st round picks that could be great players by the time my contract is up. Of course I wouldn't mind leaving a probably old Miami team to play with them.

I don't think Lin should be a late add like he is to the game. Publicity whores the NBA and Stern are.

It's a shame Lin didn't blow up like this at this time last year so he could have been on the USA team.

A fucking 3.1 GPA in economics at Harvard isn't too damn shabby at all. Not at all.

But I wonder, how long before EVERYONE here jumps ALL over him once he starts to pronounce his Christianity more than he has? Hmmmmm, that will be interesting.

Imagine that, the two most hyped athletes in recent North American major sports are both devout Christians. Love it! :1orglaugh:stir:

Most hyped. Biggest. Same thing. They are the biggest stories in sports, I guess is another way of saying it.

True enough. At least Lin is actually good at his position.

I must say the Celtics do put up a good fight against good teams, with the loss to Chicago last night.

Timberwolves going hard for Pau Gasol. They're dangling Derrick Williams as trade bait. LOL. And since salaries have to match, L.A would have to take garbage back with the rookie, all this while downgrading at PF, C and not improving at PG.

I do like Williams though.

And the small-market wolves dish out 19M/per to Gasol for the next couple. Ain't gonna happen in 1 million years, although Kahn said in the paper today a Spanish duo of Rubio/Gasol would be nice. The only way this would happen is if we parted with Love and we're not getting rid of The Franchise (Love).

Nice one there Plasma, handing the Bobcats W #4. :clap:

 

[STDiva]

Lol Toronto. Tank this season, draft Harrison Barnes, get healthy, resign Barbosa and give it a go with

C Jonas
PF Bargnani
SF Kleiza
SG Derozan
PG Calderon

Amir
Barnes
Barbosa
Bayless
Davis
Johnson

They could also draft Jeremy Lamb and eventually move Derozan to 6th man. Lamb is going to be a killer.

NY Knickerbockers catch an "L" tonight.

 

[PlasmaTwa2]

Lin had the highest amount of turnovers in a game this whole season. I noticed he had a pretty. Large amount in the game against the Raptors too. Seems to be his biggest problem.

Lol we suck.

Good god, who the fuck needs Gasol. We got the "Godfather," Pekovic. Puts up career high 30 + 17b's tonight, he was a wrecking ball. If he gets consistent we will be alright. He is one big muthufucka. God damn, we're only one win away from tying the entire last season W total already. Still in contention to make post season although WAY too early for a statement.

 

[hotrod808]

exactly what im thinking. REALLY you want to go back to the crappy fans that burned your jersey on the street and the owner that degrated you in public.
shut the fuck up lebron. or you lose fans that have not already given up on you.
ahh his comment made me sick

Anybody see Nash K.O Grant Hill last night? Funny stuff.

 

[STDiva]

Lolbron. Get use to it Miami. It's what he does.

 

[YumiYumi_1988]

True enough. At least Lin is actually good at his position.

Correction, he's good at his sport, not his position. If he was a good point guard, he wouldn't be flirting with double digit turnovers every night and would be able to at least get an assist to turnover rate of at least 1 for God's sake.
