Derrick Williams can finish at the rim in 2k... He's also yellow for that matter.

ironically my pet peeve is when people don't give Wes Johnson his respect due for being an absolute monster on 2k

Which is why 2k sucks.

They evidently aren't even bright enough to realize all they are doing is proving everyone's perception of Heat fans correct and making the video even more awesome. Kind of funny really.

heat fans have suffered for too long. for just .50 cents a day, you can help the life of a young miami heat fan. with your help, we can teach them the social skills they need to survive in the world.

Such skills include...
1) not acting like they accomplished something in life because their favorite team won a championship
2) not acting like they are victims because someone doesn't like lebron james

Simmons on 30 least cap appealing contracts. Roy Clocks in at #23

23. Brandon Roy: one year, $5.1 million
I was personally offended by this one. Here's Minnesota trying to build a playoff team despite two-plus decades of bad luck and bad breaks, and here's Brandon Roy saying, I know I had to retire in my mid-20s because my knees are bone-on-bone, but I tried that Kobe/Germany treatment and now I'm feeling pretty good! These two ships should have just passed in the night without ever stopping, right? That didn't keep David Kahn from amnestying Darko Milicic and giving away former top-four pick Wesley Johnson to Phoenix, just so he had enough cap space to sign Nicolas Batum to a restricted offer sheet (Portland quickly matched) and throw a $5.1 million prayer at Roy's knees (which didn't make it to Thanksgiving). The T-Wolves could have practically signed Randy Foye AND Carlos Delfino for what they gave Roy.

To recap: The T-Wolves spent $10.3 million on Darko and Roy so they could give away the fourth pick of the 2010 draft to Phoenix … and this wasn't even one of David Kahn's five worst decisions as Minnesota's GM. Come on, I have to.

Fantasy I don't mind as much but the 2k references drive me crazy.

Well, I'll tell you one thing about 2K. It's the only way to actually see the full lineup play.

Well done. :-)

Brandon Roy still has an overall rating of 80 in 2k! He's way better than that scrub Rubio who is only a 78!

PA just asked Tom Hanneman what he thinks about a deal centered around Kevin Love for Kevin Martin. Seriously.

Post #71 » by **C.lupus** » Mon Mar 18, 2013 4:57 pm

PA is an idiot.

How'd Hanneman respond?

It would be equivalent of:
How about a deal around Adrian Peterson for Michael Crabtree?

it's actually a great trade if kahn is intending on getting a job in okc this summer.

7:00 mark is where they start Wolves talk, 8:15 is the idiotic trade part

thought about listening but then though "why?" so I didn't.

On an unrelated rant. **** this winter!!!! It's freaking mid March and it was -25 yesterday morning and we are getting dumped on yet again. 'Good old fashioned winters' can bite me.

I blame Al Gore

I kinda agree with the sentiment. Well not really but to the extent that I've gotten indifferent to snow by now. It used to be different. Anytime it snowed I was a happy camper. Now it's like "Oh well, it snows again". I'm not bothered by it, neither am I because it likely won't change for another 5-6 weeks, but the joy is gone.

well seeing jonas dominant recently just pisses me off that we didn't take him, knew how good he was and stated several times that it would be a franchise damaging decision not to take him and here we are. we'd also have moe harkless(who is looking like a future nice player) as well if i had my way. f you kahn!!!!
