Lmao haslem a real one. Like fukk all the media talk if u want to be here u can or else u against us. Justise slimmer should be better for his speed and mobility since he is not an athletic jumper so the extra weight would boggle him down. I know spo wants white to focus on defense but that bruh needs to average at least 20 high % points for
Us to get to the next level with everybody else in low to mid double digits depending on match ups

I don't give a fukk, UD is the GOAT Miami athlete. Born, played and stayed in Dade. And for all the talk about money, UD also took less money in 2010, and has had nowhere near the amount of endorsement money in his career that Dwyane did.

:salute:

And I'm sure we don't know everything that happened behind the scenes last year, but if they want to be petty and retire UD's jersey before Dwyane I'd be fine with it. I can't help feeling like it was always his plan to go to Cle to be with Lebron, but knew that if he went there last year he would've gotten killed for it and they probably didn't have the money he wanted. So he decided that he was gonna go to Chicago for a year, use the hometown shyt to soften the blow and then force his way out at some point and end up in Cleveland.

Ultimately it's better for the future of the franchise that it happened earlier, but it still leaves a bad taste and there are absolutely blame to go on both sides.

Changed the AVI and anyone who knows me knows D Wade was my 2Gawd but dude is a Cav :yeshrug:

Can't rock him no more :camby:
Someone said earlier in this thread they suspect this was his plan going back to last year, and I gotta agree. He left money on the table with that buyout in Chicago which was the difference in why he left the heat in the first place and took maybe the tax payer exception to go to Cleveland.

Nah, I don't think this is some master plan shyt.

I think Wade got buthhurt because he felt like Riley wasn't showing him the respect and love for all he put into the franchise so he left. Chicago offered good money and he thought they'd be a decent playoff squad.

He took for granted how great the Heat organization was for granted and how bad the Chicago organization was ran so he was hating being there. It was so bad plus the fact that they sold him on being a contender but obviously rebuilding so he waived some cash to get bought out. And now he's headed to Cleveland because he knows the Heat ain't gonna go backwards to accommodate his offensive/defensive woes anymore.

:ehh: That makes a lot of sense too. The bulls are a fukking dumpster fire as big as any other in the league and I doubt he stays past this season in Cleveland either. They aren't much better honestly and I don't see LeBron staying there past this season. I was just looking through the rosters in 2k and honestly speaking, most of these organizations suck. Aside from the heat, the only stable and competent front offices that I could find were the Celtics, rockets, spurs, thunder, and warriors. Maybe the pacers too. He clearly wanted out of Chicago by mid season last year when shyt popped off with rondo though. They won't be winning a title this year regardless. They may be worse on defense this year than last year, so he's kinda playing himself. Could've gotten more money down here.
