You've never seen so much baiting and flaming in your life. It culminated when Wade dislocated his shoulder and a lot of RealGM was celebrating.


This isnt my first account unfortunately..

But random thought..

Lets say the Heat take first place in the Eastern Conference this week, does the All-Star coaching situation change? I want Spo in there!

Case in point. I'm telling you guys, a ton of Heat fans got banned at that time. Mostly because of all the BS on the general board.

And All-Star coach is already decided.

EDIT: And DWadeno3, there was some rule at the time that I was unaware of that hotmail accounts weren't accepted. Still don't know why that is, but yeah, that'd be the reason. Its dumb because when you try to sign up, it says waiting for confirmation, even though you'd never get confirmation, and I don't even think you could read the feedback forum without being a member.

Spoelstra shares ties with Super Bowl MVP

Before Sunday's game, Spoelstra predicted the Green Bay Packers would defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl. Spoelstra had good reason to cheer on the Packers.

He and Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers attended the same middle school in Beaverton, Ore. Spoelstra even jokingly said Rodgers broke all of his records at Whitford Middle School.

"So now, everybody in Beaverton is claiming Aaron Rodgers," Spoelstra said.

Four games until the All-Star break, we're half a game behind Boston. Lets finish out strong so we can be relaxed and enjoy the ASG. :)

+10

Lebron and Wade want to pass Boston I dont see them letting any loses through before the ASG. Sundays game will be better than the superbowl.

The worst time on these boards IMO was during the '08-'09 season, even though the summer of '06 after the title was bad too. Every thread on the GB during '09 was either baited or a flame-war about Kobe/LeBron/Wade.

To counter argue, the close games recently probably should not have been close

I know I've said it on this board, but the posters on the GB are so ****ing stupid. Jesus Christ. Somehow they're trying to twist Melo demanding himself to be traded out of Denver and not even trying to finish out a signed contract into something better than Lebron and Bosh playing out their contracts with their respective teams like true men (and actually having career years in their final season as opposed to mailing it in like that worthless son of a ***** Melo is doing), and joining the Heat in free agency. And they talk about making a stacked team, but try to write off Melo joining the 2 time defending ****ing champions. DOUBLE STANDARD.

I'm beginning to wonder why I even browse the General Board anymore. And I think I'm going to get modded for my latest post :rofl:

Yes, Wade. Yes, I'm really mad right now.

Idk Bron, everyone on the GB is a ****ing (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

**** it, We Already Won.
LeBron's NBA Cup MVP is more valuable than either of KD's Finals MVPs. This is the word of the Lord

Speaking of 'riveting discussions' I love how any quote by LeBron riles up the general board. :lol:

The GB is scared of Lebron and Miami that's why. Yesterday some delusional bulls fan said Lebron's level of play dropped this season and then they went crazy over Rose scoring 29 points on 11/26 shooting.

Retards. GB= proof that all humans are not created equal.

Unfortunately, the quality of posting on this board has decreased as well. Sometimes you wonder whether some people have ever touched a basketball or coached a game when you read their posts. The assumptions and accusations some make based on false observations or simple numbers are mind-numbingly stupid.

Pulling from DWadeno3's post above me a little bit...

Did any of you ever actually play basketball? And to what level did you play?

Personally,I started playing in grammar school and continued all the way through college.

I accepted an athletic scholarship from Troy University(formerly Troy State University),and lettered my first 3 years at the off guard position,before tearing my anterior cruciate ligament in practice.This was back in early 1991 and our Athletic Dept. then,especially the Basketball program wasn't very lucrative so we worked with what we had.I wasn't privy to,nor fortunate enough to benefit from some of the state of the art rehab technology today's athletes have.Thankfully,Coach Maestri was able to pull some strings and I was able to go on a Medical scholarship,and finish up my undergrad.

Today I'm reduced to watching my Heat play,and of course Sunday afternoon YMCA B-Ball.
Which isn't a bad thing...

I wasn't going pro anyway,just had Hoop Dreams.

That's my story,what's yours???
