HEAT fan since '88

Your premise from the start was that ALL owners can afford to pay taxes and repeater taxes, and the Warriors have not exhibited any market-wealth...

Analogy: Owner: We're gonna start selling a specialty pizza with 24k gold-dipped pepperoni. Chef: Boss, I think that would be too expensive for...

You're right, we can't draw strong conclusions on an 11 year sample. But I've never presented any false facts nor any opinions as a fact. Fact:...

Not since the new CBA where tax compounding was introduced. That's essentially changed it where 30% of team owners (typically big markets) could...

There's no factual basis for this presumption is what I'm saying. And I'm obviously right in that regard.

Where does the rubber meet the actual road in other teams paying the tax in this many consecutive years though? The Heat did everything they could...

So are you suggesting that the Warriors have been the only team with the motivation to stay in the luxury tax? Because the facts of the matter are...

That's cap. Most markets cannot afford it.

https://youtu.be/TYRq4oqD4z0 He's always ran too hot. He's cooled off a little and has rebuilt his image that he can play within a team construct...

Bamba would be a really good get for the MLE or some sort of S&T. But he's restricted.

No, not bad. But nobody in the rotation is good enough to make a defensive team. And nobody gets to the FT line except Luka. They need to add more....

I think Warriors and Nets should continue to be viewed as the favorites when they're carrying such a steep payroll advantage.

He's had some crazy excessive flagrant fouls as well in his time with Chicago and New York. And it's clear that "passion" that he's known results in...

Contract year should be extra motivation... But my mindset is once a black hole+ headcase, usually always a black hole + headcase. I don't think he...

Umm, the wheels fell off CJ and Dame (on pace to miss playoffs with whole team healthy). They did not fall off of Tatum and Brown. I have no...

I don't think there's any world Davis is better than Jimmy this past season even if 100% healthy. Not now, likely not next year either. But your...

I gotta say you have a knack for suggesting Miami gives up the best player in a trade AND a pick on top consistently. Last year you suggested...

Not surprised. Team underachieved but not by a lot. What difference if you win one extra round of playoffs? This isn't a championship roster.

I see no lies.

Yeah, that's what Miami is going to need. Hopefully someone sees how close Miami was to being able to win a title and they see themself as the player...

Add in LaVine. Miami should go all in on trading for another scorer and the rest will fall into place if you are holding onto Jimmy and Bam. Not...

Sorry for your loss bro. I know he was watching that game with you from afar.

Were there people that actually called him a bad player? I think his knock has always been his consistency from 3 and whether he could be a PG. He's...

Yes, you were clear as day wrong about Miami being frauds. They're clearly a team that belonged in the front row seat of best teams in the NBA this...

So whether Miami won or Boston won, you intended to come in here and troll? Guess you must feel cool.

Lowry was a good regular season player despite the ton of time he missed for personal reasons. But he's played like trash in the playoffs and had...

Nobody trolled and disrespected the Sixers here when they lost. I think you should have shut the **** up around 2 weeks ago once your team once again...

You're a miserable troll supporting a team that tanked for nearly half a decade just to hit a ceiling in the 2nd round. Couldn't even push 7 games...

Good win Boston. At least Miami went down swinging. Sucks we couldn't get a healthy core of players to give us the best shot.
