Re: Random Thoughts XI
So many new threads going up right now. I don't blame anyone, I was on the verge of making several myself.
But do you think we could sort of cut down on the clutter a bit and make some "Official" topics for say:
Off-season (FA, moves to make, draft, etc)
Coaching options
Thoughts on Game 6
Thoughts on the Season as a whole
Lockout Discussion

Re: Random Thoughts XI
These next few months are going to sting even more if we have to endure a lockout.

This is why I was saying, we need to stick together.
Nonetheless, I'm sort of happy this run has come to an end. I needed a break from all of it, it was really exhausting. Nonetheless, those months until the new season is supposed to begin are enough time to rest. A lockout would truly suck.

The only place I want to even hear or talk about the Heat is on this website, on this particular forum. I haven't been on the GB since the loss, and don't plan on it.
I made that Rally Thread, but had a feeling that we were toast after Game 5 so it's been a bit easier for me to take.
GT3 - agreed. Venting for a couple days is cool...I'm doing it myself.

Yo bro, once you finish getting over this whole thing, would you mind making a banner that reads "HEAT 2012" with the following pic:

I'm ready for next season, Lockout be damned.

Re: Random Thoughts XI

The whole image won't fit, that's about the best I can get in. Let me know if you want any changes/don't feel obligated to use it lol. The stuff I make is very basic only takes 10 minutes tops.

You know what would be great, if you guys can't delete the troll threads how about just merging them onto one

Re: Random Thoughts XI
I know losing sucks, but with the team you guys have it can only go up. That 08' loss stung bad, and coming back in 10' to win. It felt sweeter. Shoutouts to the Heat fans. I got respect for you all.

Re: Random Thoughts XI
Man that sucked
. I'll definitely do this for real this time: no Twitter, NBA-related TV/radio/website/blog, and any other non-Heat forum for me til maybe Christmas again or so. In fact I just unsubscribed my NBATV membership. I told that to myself last week but couldn't resist. But now that we're really done then I guess I would be not tempted anymore. Ah well.

Much appreciated. You're probably my favorite non-Heat poster.
Also, very classy move by the Mavs to part at Liv. I hope it'll be all over ESPN as well about how classless they are. At least we kept it in the locker room and on the plane in '06. Unfortuantely, I'll probably never know whether it will be because the only basketball place I'm going to visit is this one.

Re: Random Thoughts XI
I think LeBron and Wade need to learn how to score in different ways rather than having the ball in their hands most of the time.
Teams can stop you if you decide to drive... it isn't hard. Need more ball movement. It always ends up as a bad shot.
I don't want to say ball hogs because that's more of an insult, but need more off the ball action from them. They'd be more dangerous like that.
It's tough when your best players have to run the offense, anchor the defense, get rebounds, show up in the 4th. It takes a toll on you.

Don't really see a problem with it really. It's a hot club. They spent a lot of money there I'm sure the staff benefited. Of course it does say what appeal our city has that the Mavs would like to stick around to celebrate here rather than fly back to their cheering fans. Partying at Club Liv is a special thing for them. If FA sign here, it can happen any day of the week
