The cognitive dissonance it must take to see Goran’s flops but not Kemba’s is truly impressive.

IDK what the **** Spo was doing that game. Solomon Hill and Andre Iguodala were garbage. They played less zone. It was like they decided let's do everything opposite of what worked for us lol

You know, I just rather not be around the moment it does happen.

I remember a garbage truck fell about 100ft off the highway and next to the basketball courts I used to play on. These courts are like Final Destination lol :lol:

You've convinced me to never play basketball in Miami..lol. Crazy the driver survived that, damn.


LOL well I played in Jose Marti (haven't played for like a year cause of some knee problems and COVID-19, and lets just say it attracts an interesting group of people. I prefer playing indoors there, people that play there tend to be more mature (and it's only $100/year).

Standards aren't just about stats. UD embodies everything this franchise wants from its players. He's easily the most beloved Heat player in franchise history.

That is pretty sad if that is the case.

I called it a few days ago. This series is going to 7.
11 titles won in LA in the modern era, while y’all living on “success” from 2 generations ago :lol:

Even more than D Wade?

Don’t get me wrong, even as an outsider I understand UD’s position as a lifetime staple of the heat, but most beloved?

That Iggy trade and contract looks like a big mistake. There were better guys available for less. Not sure if Iggy has brought anything off the court that has made a big difference to the Heat otherwise.
