LeBron cries, the league listens

[Deng Defense Force]

To the contrary...I am not upset at all! This is nothing but banter. And it would be hard to call it sheer hypocrisy since it hasn't happened to Lebron. Your argument is based totally on a fabricated supposition. Makes it kind of silly. Nothing to be upset about.

Exactly...imagine the talk if Lebron was doing to Miami what Rose is doing now with his injury...imagine what would be said.

Could you imagine?

Could you?

But, since it hasn't happened to Lebron, kind of silly indeed.


Since I find it best to sometimes give the baby his bottle, the last word is yours.

No I don't fault some of these kids for cheating. What the fuck is he supposed to do? David Stern is a jackass that doesn't let them turn pro out of high school. If he were to go to Europe, that could have cost him a lot in the long run. Look what happened to Jeremy Tyler. One of the best recruits in the nation and was so dominant in high school he went pro in europe just for a challenge. What happened? He failed miserably and is barely hanging on to an NBA team and a lot of people on here may not even know who he is. I can't fault someone for David Stern's stupidity.

If Jeremy Evans failed miserably in Europe "just for a challenge" and is barely hanging on to an NBA team then I fail to see how that's the result of Stern's stupidity. Players who can't make it in the NBA go to Europe, not the other way around. Look at Brandon Jennings. He didn't want to waste time making colleges money for a year (that's a whole different topic) so he went to Europe for a year and is doing well in the NBA now.

Yes it is silly, because I am on record for criticizing Lebron, I happen to think he is unfairly criticized by people on this forum. So basing such a supposition on my response is indeed silly...if you paid attention...something you should do a lot of concerning my posts.

However, there is a rather large sample size on this forum of people NOT being objective. So here is a little homework for you, since you fancy yourself to be intelligent...pay attention to what is being written on this forum! You most likely would draw the same conclusions...

You are one of the dumbest people I have ever run across on the Internet...ever. My God...you turn every post into a damn wrestling promo. Sad.

Come on Playboi, I'm saying the same shit I've always said about Lebroad. There just all coming true is all. Lebroad got so frustrated he lowered a shoulder into Boozer on a screen........ rookie shit, imo. Did you see his face, and fake smile, when the flagrant went against him?

As far as I'm concerned, Lebroad showed the entire NBA how to play him. Don't think for a minute that other teams didn't take notice. Why do you think Ainge said something, it even got Riley irked. Even lesser teams are going to get physical with him in the playoffs, and I can't wait to see it!!!

Everyone, including you, talks about how big and strong Lebroad is. Except when the game get's physical, he cries like a BITCH!!! It's ok for Lebroad to lower his shoulder and steamroll Kirk, but a little slap over his shoulder, when Taj is really trying to get ball, is a NON BASKETBALL play? Laugh out fuckin loud!!!!!!

Call me dumb if you want Playboi, I'm just the guy that's gonna keep reminding you that Lebroad is a bitch, and your a Lebroad pole smoker!

....Everyone is different and there is always an exception. Some people are more mature than others. So now these guys are "wasting" the colleges money? Lol. So what about all of the Memphis #23 jerseys that sold? Does Derrick get anything from that? How about all of the tickets purchased just to see him play? Did he get anything from that? No. In the end he didn't cost the university anything. They still profited off of him even while paying for his education. Did every high school player that jumped straight to the NBA come in and dominate? No, most didn't. LeBron and Moses Malone are two of the exceptions. Brandon Jennings went to Europe and ended up being successful. He is an exception. Bottom line is, if your good enough to enter the draft out of high school and you want to do that then you should be able to.

Uhhhh.... LEARN TO READ AND COMPREHEND BRUH! I'm guessing you didn't go to college nor go straight to the NBA. I said he didn't want to WASTE ('his' was implied) TIME making COLLEGES MONEY. Meaning, college athletes make money for their schools, not for themselves, while attending school. The majority (who don't go on to become professional athletes) get a "free" degree out of it, which should lead to increased earning potential. The few who do make it to the professional athletic leagues are the ones who make the colleges the majority of the money (for example, the Memphis #23 jerseys you pointed out). But I digress. Like I said, that's a whole other discussion.

LOL...so you think that what the Bulls did was some kind of secret potion that exposed Lebron's game? You don't think over the past decade that other players haven't tried that? You don't think Ron Artest thought of that years prior? You don't think Coach Thibs utilized that philosophy while coaching with the Celtics against Lebron?

May I suggest needlepoint? Stop watching basketball dude. You suck at it...loudly.

This is where we should just be able to lace up the hi tops and settle our difference on the court, right?
Dude, I said a long time ago that the Bulls would have a gameplan for LJ when we face them again in the playoffs. I think we saw a little, but there's more to come. Ya'll keep going on about the series two fuckin years ago. It doesn't mean shit!

I saw LJ get frustrated to the point where he did NOT get the calls! And YES, I'm suggesting that if he doesn't get all the calls in the playoffs, and the refs let them play, they can be beat!

 

[scottiepippen1994]

Be careful what you ask for Pip, you don't want my ass looking for you!

What? Trust me, I don't think you realy want to look for me.
But if you must, ill be on 101st and Wentworth for about 2 hours.
After that time, I will be leaving...................So just PM me when you are rolling up and ill be outside.

You are saying the playoffs 2 years ago against the Heat don't mean shit?
Really...........................Since that time 2 years ago, the Bulls roster got worse, while the Heats roster got better.........And most importantly, Lebron James is a smarter, stronger more experienced leader than he was 2 years ago.........And most importantly, a CHAMPION........NUKKA PLEASE........Just stop it before you break my funny bone.
The only upgrade to the Bulls roster since 2 years ago is Jimmy Butler...Nate Robinson maybe.
You can argue that Boozer is playing much better,
BUT HE HASN'T PROVED THAT HE IMPROVED PLAYING WITH ROSE ON THE FLOOR..

But I must say, I really do love what Jimmy Butler brings to the table........And I know we havnt seen the best of him yet....

 

[nwfisch]

Ok, let me help you...there are times...many times that you post, I don't respond, I disregard it. Doesn't mean I never read the statement. It does mean I "ignore" it...which is SYNONYMOUS with the word "disregard" (notice how I used it in a preceding sentence).

Let that sink in...when it does, we can move on to the word "attention". I will give it about a week.

I've been waiting for two years for him to make a constructive or useful post...still hasn't happened.

I will admit that his fascination with me is creepy :fap:

 

[Axl Rose]

i liked how he called jimmy, deng, boozer, taj, nate etc 'bulls scrubs' lulz

Still don´t see how our bench is worse than last season :shrug:

Hinrich > Watson
Robinson > Lucas
Butler > Brewer
Belinelli = Korver
Mohammed < Asik

Miami got better in three point shooting since that playoff series, but they now have a real weakness: Rebounding! They were not good when we met them in the ECF, but now they just suck under the basket.

It´s really sad our team doesn´t get healthy because we would have a pretty good chance against them.

And no, Lebron did not get any smarter or physically stronger!

Lebron is better now than he ever was. Just look at the stats. If its not smarts than what is it?

 

[Axl Rose]

heat are much much better then they were just from a chemistry stand point...the first year they were trying to figure out how to play with each other and depth wasnt good

now they figured it out and got some good role players...LeBron is playing out of his mind aswell and doesn't freeze up in the big moments like he use too

Hinrich > Watson - No
Robinson > Lucas - Yes
Butler > Brewer - Yes
Belinelli = Korver - No (Korver > Beli...i dont care if he can put the ball on the floor...he cant replace korver this team truly misses what korver brought )
Mohammed < Asik - Yes

we have got worse

i dont think we really got a legit shot at miami in the playoffs...their offense is waaay better and they are great defensively

the reason we won that game the other week was because everybody showed up and we were hitting our shots(even very tough ones) and bosh and wade weren't playing up to par....basically every thing went right for us....we cant count on that for 4 games in the playoffs even with rose and noah

but i guess its gonna take another loss in 5 for ppl to see the truth

Bellinelli is better than Korver dude. Korver does one thing...Bellinelli brings more to the table, he can even create a shot for himself. Korver doesn't have Belli's skills.

 

[Raskolnikov]

Belli sucks. he got hurt and the bulls started winning. The ball stops when it moves through him because he takes forever to decide what he wants to do, all other options run out and he makes a phrenetic bull charge that is as likely to lead to a turnover as 2 points, with a large number of missed shots. He is no Korver from 3(nobody really is), and his defense is just as bad.
I think he messes up chemistry more than he sucks, but he aint right for this team.

 

[Axl Rose]

its always the same excuse

sure korver did one thing but he was damn good at that one thing (and its something we sorely lack right now)...beli isnt really good at anything he has 1 good game then is ghost for the next 15

i'll give him props hes hit a few GW's this year but i dont feel hes better than korver...i feel korvers one thing is better than the things beli can do

Korver sucked............................................period, unless he was shooting a 3 pointer.
Belli can do a little of everything but isn't great at anything.

Neither Belli or Korver are or were that important and both of them are easily replaceable.

 

[Axl Rose]

korver didnt suck at all lol he was a great 3 point specialist and improved on defense under thibs

im not a crazy kyle fan i thought he was overpaid a bit but i enjoyed him while he was here...i still miss posting hot saaaaucce when he hits a 3

ppl keep saying beli can do more things and im saying korvers 3 ball > the "things'' beli can do...(basically he has better handles than korver and thats about it)
