Another case of "buddy-ball" eh? First Bulls, now Raptors
Good thing our 7/11 backcourt is so selfless, particularly Mion

Why you hate Serge? He's seems like a really nice guySpoiler:
Resident Ibaka hater checking in
-he gon be expensive
-fit with Hassan is questionable (think I rather have Hassan if it's an either/or thing)
-age is questionable
-we have nothing to trade (nothing worth giving up at least)
and honestly he's just kinda boring to watch, Panda

Re: Around the NBA 24.0 -- Last Day on Earth
Wade was wrong. I think MCW may be the best point guard he's ever played with

Re: Around the NBA 24.0 -- Last Day on Earth
It's not anything personal about 'Baka, just a pricey venture. Especially for us
Capping our team off for 'Baka's a gamble

I agree. There's better options out there. I'd see what we can offer for Aminu in Portland. I like his game alot, and he's not that expensive.

This is what happens when you never give a chit as a team defensively

Re: Around the NBA 24.0 -- Last Day on Earth
I was still young when rose won that MVP and I'm biased towards guards with hops, but was he always overrated as hell? I feel like he isn't back to this perceived level cause he was never actually there in the first place. Like he still looks pretty damn athletic, but his shot selection is awful and he's a crappy creator, which is what I remember from his MVP season anyway. He looks a little more timid about drawing contact now and his d got worst, but has he really fallen off or is he just not the offensive focal point of an extraordinarily defensive team and looks worse?

Short answer is - Yes.
Benefited from coach tibs and good supporting cast, and people getting tired of voting for LBJ.
Rose was never a real MVP, or even a top 5 player, and was never better then Wade or Lebron.

**** GSW.
Hope we can get him back for next year. He's a Heat type of player much more then a GSW one.

I thought Wade "closed the book" on the Heat?

That's only a 10-day deal. Still a chance.

Re: Around the NBA 24.0 -- Last Day on Earth
Very insightful interview regarding our organization. Wade's assessment was pretty honest, fair and very respectful. It also shows that Spoelstra is a very good head coach to have.
