Some people do value their privacy and don't want their words and picture being shared. What if i had used my real picture. Did you think about that. Now you see why people post anonymously with fake names and fake pictures, fake names, and . I am within my rights to contact abby chin and make this a bigger issue. will not do that but best believe i am going to talk about it, because that is not right. I have never shared anything we have said here to media.


This one took my breath away.

Has this just been the longest troll job in the history of trolling?

Can the Heat afford a max? Or do they need to make a ton of moves first?

On a team capped out with marginal pieces, at best. I'm still hoping that this is false. He can't be THAT stupid and self centered, can he?


Why? I hope it's true. Spread the wealth around the NBA. Hope Kawhi goes alone to the Clippers or stays in Toronto and Kyrie alone to Brooklyn. Tired of these dudes joining up.

Let's wipe the thread clean and focus on 3 hours baby.

I'm hoping for something crazy unexpected for us

What an off-season already and we're still 2 hours away from free agency opening! As a lurker I love watching the roller coaster of emotions and opinions that we get to experience on this board. Sometimes I'll miss a few pages on the thread and then happen upon a "dispute" where I can't really understand who's upset about what - e.g. whatever is going on right now. But what I love and see is a rich, active fan base full of crazy, irrational, die hard fans. What more can we ask for than an off-season so exciting that it moves our emotions! The high hopes that came with the possibility of trading for AD and forming a super team. To the betrayal and anger of being slighted by Kyrie. And then Horford. Can it get any worse? But wait...we could get Kemba? I think I like Kemba! What's that, maybe Horford isn't gone? So many twists and turns. And the higher the stakes, the hotter the takes.

Now, here we find ourselves on the brink of free agency starting - all kinds of charged up and ready for action!

To you it looks like piling on. To others it's a well deserved critique.

To each their own but if it bothers you I suggest you block everyone because this **** been going on almost a decade.


I suggest that you re-examine your contention that these comments are just a "well deserved critique." Perhaps you might find that somewhere along the way a line has been crossed. It does bother me, truthfully, but I see no need to block everyone. I realize this is just my opinion, and I hope that a majority feel the same way. It doesn't hurt to take the higher ground, or to be nice to people.


I love a good online fight, and will go 1 on 1 with anyone. Shoot, I'll go 1 on 50 on the GB or some other team's forum. We all know that. What I don't do is go 50 on 1, and yes, this does feel a bit like bullying. This has always felt that that to me, and is part of why I avoid getting into it with him at all. The other part is that he is almost never actually talking about basketball, which is generally why I am here.

I want the best for him, and sure looks to me like the best thing is for him to just stop posting here. Whatever he is dealing with in his life, and we all deal with something, it is obviously not helping his situation to be here. It clearly causes him immense distress, as his 50 ragequits and repeated veiled threats to half the internet display. At the risk of implying that he brings the bullying on himself, you can't just indiscriminately lash out at the entire board all the time and not expect some pushback on that.

So my unsolicited advice to him is to just do something else on this fine Sunday, and to everyone else that he is actually a pretty easy guy to ignore when he isn't taking a massive dump on the biggest thread during the biggest day of the year.

Just my two cents. I'll stop before I get to the dime

Absolutely. We can't all female dog about superteams and then mock a guy for going solo.

Heat still going to be mediocre unless there’s another shoe to drop.

Fine with me. I'd love to see other top FAs make similar moves.

In order to be able to offer Jimmy Butler a max contract (worth $32.7 million in the first year and up to $140 million over four seasons), which he’s likely to seek, and acquire him with their cap space, the Miami Heat would have to cut about $63 million off the books to clear sufficient space.

Almost certainly, the Sixers would require the Miami Heat to send back much of their young core, with some combination of Bam Adebayo, Josh Richardson and Justise Winslow likely being centerpieces, along with perhaps Goran Dragic and multiple picks going back in return.
