Although we've come to the end of the road, wanted to show some appreciation to one of our popular guests.

When the smoke clears, your favorite player enjoyed his most successful years with this franchise. The GS board is not quite as active so you may not find the discussions as lively but we wish you the best on your future endeavors and thank you for your contributions here

Salute

I'm gonna miss him. Wish he'd stay. That ORTG-DRTG = x was such a wonderful stat that I never thought of until he mentioned it.

One of the absolute best posters we had on the board the last few years. Always respectful and knowledgeable.

Sadly, very much like his Idol Mr. Butler - he couldn't fully commit to the team.

I wish them both luck in their future adventures, and would be happy to see them come visit.

Let's go Heat.

For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

Question for Air P. Would you have stayed if Butler wasn't traded and rode the bench the rest of the season?

It's ok to cheer for other teams... even the Warriors. It's not like we're going to play against them in the Finals. They don't have a chance in the west. /s

I watched, followed and cheered for the Bulls and Cavs while Wade was on them. But I sure as hell wont be watching or cheering for the Warriors.

Jesus, he didn’t die bro :lol:
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

Return to Miami Heat
