    We have zero ideas on offense.
  2. SpongeWorthy
    Yikes
  3. SpongeWorthy
    All those late shot clock baskets are back breakers and now the D is gassed
  4. SpongeWorthy
    Stupid
  5. SpongeWorthy
    Call a [expletive] travel against him for once in your [expletive] life
  6. SpongeWorthy
    These end of shot clock baskets and fouls plus botched transition opportunities are energy killers
  7. SpongeWorthy
    I don't get it. Why do we bring the guy James is guarding to set the screen for Rose? Why do we bring anyone at all? Just let him destroy Bibby 1 on 1.
  8. SpongeWorthy
    Why are we letting Mario [expletive] Chalmers dictate the game
  9. SpongeWorthy
    I've always been a Boozer fan
  10. SpongeWorthy
    That happens when Noah picks up a foul 3 seconds into the game after the refs decide to give the ball back to Miami for no apparent reason
  11. SpongeWorthy
    Ok Boozer yes, set up shop there especially against Haslem
  12. SpongeWorthy
    Durant would've shot approx 18 free throws if he got a tenth of the contact Rose did in the quarter. Ridiculous.
  13. SpongeWorthy
    Time for us to end the fantasy that Boozer will do anything good against their front line. He refuses to battle for position close enough to the rim to finish over length. He wants to shoot that fruity little fall away.
  14. SpongeWorthy
    I'm sensing a fight or two is in the cards
  15. SpongeWorthy
    Refs are letting everything go
  16. SpongeWorthy
    Swing the [expletive] bat what the [expletive]

    John King of CNN was in that Green Monster box where Papi's homer landed. And if his work on the night Bin Laden died is any indication he's on his 43rd beer or so.

    Harden is ridiculously talented.

    How dare you suggest that this fine gentleman isn't anything but a barrel full of laughs: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_R440eNEqeGY/TKDnEGiXJMI/AAAAAAAABO8/NDqwA_lOly4/s1600/brian+windhorst.jpg

    Say Lebron quietly (relative to the spectacle of The Decision) signed with the Clippers. He'd have a couple of legit young studs to play alongside with, they'd wreck [expletive], and he'd only be loathed in Cleveland for the most part. It was The Decision and the fact that he executed a clearly premeditated plan to team up with established stars that created all the vitriol.

    And I'm the one being obtuse?? I'm not following. Whether the player came across awesome teammates from leaving by free agency, or his GM actually being good doesn't make a difference. The whining about Lebron comes from the fact that he can't do it himself, and needs help, well so did everyone, even St. Michael. You honestly think Jordan would have sat around wasting his career with Jamario Moon and Wally Szczerbiak if that's what Krause surrounded him with? Wasting your career with Jamario Moon and Wally World is one thing and going to team up with your natural rival is something else. Would Jordan have stuck around in Chicago if he continued to play with the Brad Sellers' of the world? Maybe not. But he wasn't going to call up Isiah and Magic to team up either. And that's not something that is specific to Jordan either. There's just a level of fraternization between all the stars these days that didn't exist even 10 years ago. They play AAU ball together, text/tweet all offseason, etc. It's all buddy buddy now.

    Dwight Howard is a loser

    I also enjoy this mythical universe we inhabit where all the all time former greats are just lobbing grenades constantly at Lebron for going to Miami to team up with Wade and Bosh. As far as I can tell, it's them saying they wouldn't have done it themselves when they invariably get asked their thoughts on it by the media at various charities and wherever it is that NBA legends go. The horror. Won't someone please think of poor Lebron?
  25. SpongeWorthy
    by sidekick do you mean "guy who averaged more points, rebounds and assists per game than dwyane wade"? also i love the leap of logic here. lebron went from probably being the best player in the league last year, when his surrounding cast sucked, to not being the best player in the league this year because he has another great player on his team. It's still not his team. I know that flies in the face of every metric and stat, etc., but the reality is that the Heat are Wade's team. LeBron's choice to play there was almost universally panned by every former NBA superstar, all saying that they would never have tried to piggyback onto another star's team. So it's Wade's team because Scottie Pippen was drafted to the Bulls. Got it. Are you being intentionally obtuse or do you really not see the difference between a guy (in Scottie's case, something of a project coming from a tiny school that had never, ever produced NBA talent) being drafted to your team where you are unquestionably the alpha dog and going to play with two other guys who were the clear cut #1 options on their own teams?
