yea I remember when Wade turned Rondo into Gumby
man if Miami can some how snag an elite player we'd be right back in it. Whiteside will be better this year and the main guy, Bosh I have a feeling is healthy again, and Dragic is really good.. Not to mention to young talents in Winslow and Richardson.. One more guy and we're good.. we trust in riley down here"Time to nut up or shut up"-Tallahassee

Wade is from Chicago. He's said since the Shaq days he would finish his career there. Also, the original LeBron-Wade deal was for both to go Chicago, (Derek Rose killed that talk). Riley did try and make a final run when he picked up Deng and Johnson. If Bosh wasn't finished, they would've beat Toronto and been in the East Finals. That was the best single-Wade exhibition since Shaq left. Wade is not looking for 30+ minutes every night. He needs a deep back court to split time with cause the dude is seriously injury-prone. To me, it looks as if he wanted to go CLE but when they broke down what needed to be done - trade Shump, release JR - it became self-defeating. Wade would have been clocking huge minutes cause the Cavs need to have the best league record at all costs for home court. It also appears a byline for Wade's signing was CLE gets Dunleavy. Competitive inter-conference teams never make moves like that, but LeBron apparently wanted Dunleavy since the Miami days, (and got Mike Miller instead). His salary makes it possible to keep JR and Shump, too. Cavs still need another 4/5 player.Comment

I think you have to factor that into this equation because these guys have been on a deep run in the playoffs and championship for a couple of years now and the wear and tear is beginning to show up with more frequency. Factor in the extra playing time to claim a record number of wins in the regular season and I'm sure players like Curry are doing some heavy R&R right now. You can't blame him and James for skipping the Olympics since both will be tested early and often next season.Comment

I'm interested to see how Silicon Valley Warriors fans deal with Kerr doing the Pop and resting players. The old-school Oakland fans will be fine with it, but IMO the San Fran audience are going to bail when nearly 10 home games are lost and it's only a 60-65 win season.Comment

While the optics might seem similar, Lebron left a one-man team in Cleveland. Nothing was being built around him while Miami was trying to build a championship caliber organization. When Cleveland made the commitment, he came back and now they have a championship. The Durant situation is different because Oklahoma had committed to building a winning team and Durant looks like he's just jumping on a bandwagon. Plus he said he left the Thunder because he didn't get the ball enough even though he led the team with more shot attempts (even besting Westbrook). So seeing him go from that to a complete team environment is going to be a sticky situation. Like I was telling Hector earlier, I think he'll come to regret that move. The Warriors lost as many games in the playoffs as they did the entire season, so teams have them figured out. My feeling is they will have to completely reconfigure their approach and that won't come overnight with new players in the fold and expectations through the roof from fans and the media. Every time they lose, they'll be asked if the championship loss is a factor. I suspect it will get ugly in Golden State before it gets better.It's not a doll it's an action figure.Comment

and another Legend says good bye, Tim Duncan retires...after 19 incredible seasons he's calling it quits..Good for him, an instant Hall of famer and one the the few genuine nice guys of the NBA...took pay cuts and did what he had to to win..and never complained about it and threw a hissy fit when he didn't get his way or the money back that he felt was owed to him for taking those pay cuts.. Greatest power forward of all time."Time to nut up or shut up"-Tallahassee

Duncan is highly intelligent and cultured too...unlike many of his fellow NBA players...lol.
He's a huge car enthusiast...sort of like Jay Leno. He collects a lot of classics...and has a very cool car restoration shop.
I would love to see him in some type of car reality show, like Jay Leno himself has started...I'd watch it.sigpicComment
