Congrats to Mark Cuban, my favorite owner in pro sports.

No, that was team of destiny stuff.

And the CBA will probably gut that team. 90ishMM payroll.

Was he the one falling down in the tunnel doing histronics?

by **YahooFanChicago** » Sun Jun 12, 2011 11:52 pm

didn't see a single game since I am out of the country but on paper did Bosh have a relatively better series than LBJ or DWade? I mean he is supposed to be their 3rd best player and not a real superstar but as annoying as he is he seemed to have a more consistent series?

CDT is weaping tears of joy right now.

by **furls** » Sun Jun 12, 2011 11:56 pm

You are right, they are a 90M team. They are not going to be able to resign all these guys under the new CBA with 61M already committed for 2011/12 and as a result they lose Chandler, Stevenson, Butler and Barea.

They got him open looks and he made them. Had a solid series, but wasn't creating his own shots or anything like that.

Biggest thing they need is the amnesty clause and to dump Haywood and his stupid deal for Chandler.

No, CDT is still sitting in front of Tressel's house screaming to coach that he still loves him. Next week is TPeezy's turn.

Wish he would have stopped with the Mavs congratulations and left out the bit about no shortcuts. The congratulations alone would have made this a class statement and hacks like us can post the stuff about no shortcuts and other rips on the Heat and Lebron.

by **e0y2e3** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:09 am

Yep, standard TMLP.

At least he speaks from experience on that shortcut thing, as he tried it repeatedly.

by **furls** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:09 am

Van Gundy said the Heat will have to take a look at their roster and potentially make a play for Howard with either James or Wade. Dumb comment, no way it happens, but man what a bitch it would be for LBJ if he ditched Cleveland and his rep as a good guy to end up stuck on an Orlando team without Howard! That would be fucking Karma.

Agree. That's what brought all the bad press last year.

What font was used?

Yep. Although all 3 of the fucks built in opt out clauses. After year 3 I think (may be four, not looking right now).

Give him another 6 years and maybe he will mature. Kinda like how Cuban has been all playoffs. Anyway back to ripping James, Wade (disappeared too), Bosh Eddie House, Chalmaers, Spo, Big Dumb Z, and last but not least Miami Heat fan. Fuck all you, karam is a bitch, and just wait till Enes Kanter punks you bitches.

by **e0y2e3** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:14 am

Last summer w/ all of the backlash had to be brutal for LBJ. Now he gets to sit through the lock-out w/ everyone having nothing to talk about but his disappearance and choke job.

Now that's karma.

After this, one of the greatest NBA seasons and finals ever, it is a damned shame we get a lock-out, but at least we get to relish in his misery.

by **e0y2e3** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:14 am

Cuban maturing and getting the fuck out of the way this playoffs has been a very under-reported story. Even Dirk has spoken on it more than once.

All 3 can opt out after 2013/14 season, so if this karmic fuck you were to happen James would be stuck on the Magic for 3 more years and would finally get paroled after his 11th season in the league.

by **Orenthal** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:16 am

I forgot big fat ass windbag who just asked Spo is the rest for James at the 4th was planned. Yes it was decided pre-game. Couple minutes. Spo looks old. All the questions are about James. Media built "The King", now they are ripping it apart! LMAO

Very classy having the trophy handed to the founding owner, kept his responses team centric and deferred when Scott started asking typical media self serving bs questions.

I think Gilbert's statement was fine. I just hope he believes it.

by **e0y2e3** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:20 am

Holy shit - I just remembered that Chandler was traded to Toronto before Dallas this year (not even mentioning the OKC trade) and Jordan backed out at the last second.

BAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

So true...a full year lock-out would be really painful but knowing that "the King" was sitting there stewing over his choke job for 2 years would go a long way to easing that pain.

If he has any common sense or perspective at all I would think he won't spend much time in N.E. Ohio or anywhere outside of S.E. Florida in the coming months due to public ridicule. Then again, he has proven to be pretty obtuse in the past.

by **googleeph2** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:23 am

Too pumped to relax.

Can't believe how the Heat settled for outside shots, missed out on rebounds, committed unforced errors, didn't take the ball to the hole and go to the line late in the game. Jaw dropping how their will was sapped in an elimination game of the NBA finals, at home.

by **Orenthal** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:24 am

Wasn't it because he failed a physical? Ya, I don't even remember the Toronto deal...

by **e0y2e3** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:25 am

OKC was a physical. Toronto was supposed to be for Calderone and MJ just changed his mind at the last possible second.

by **Orenthal** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:27 am

Has to be noted that Dallas went zone during the biggest moment of this series. Took away the drives to the lane, begs for jumpers, and made the entire team pretty passive. No one wants to take those jump shots when the asses are clenched.

by **FUDU** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:27 am

It's rare that I am happy for an athlete, even Cleveland athletes, but I feel good for Dirk and Kidd, and Carlyle.

Can't help but wonder why Dirk disappeared so quickly when the game ended, strange.

As far as the Heat go, with some uncertain changes coming with a new CBA they can't sit back too long in adding pieces b/c to be honest they are going to have the oldest 29 year old players in the history of the game before you know it.

Remembering how the pre-hype started with this Heat team, and how the end of season & playoffs unfolded for them, this has to go down as one of the most epic failures in history.

Reports are that Dirk was about to bust into tears of joy and wanted to go gather himself.

What's great is Wade looks like he's had waaaay more than enough of his 2 BFFs after this. One can't stop stepping on his own dick and one can't stop crying like Nathan Lane in the fucking 'Bird Cage'.

Wade was the last one to quit for Miami, no doubt.

Had there been five more minutes to play he may have killed one of his BFFs.

Chris Bosh thank you for reciting every sports cliche. I think you just sent a lil barb LBJ's way saying you want to play your best basketball when it means it most.
