Official NBA Off-Season Thread. New 2012-2013 Thread Has Been Made. Please Post In There

[ohmygosher]

Ya'll letting the names get in the way of the actual skill set they brought to the game. 

 

[knightngale]

No one is comparing Chandler & Terry to them, but to the bolded part
Ditto to Retro's post, can't be compared at all

yeah dirk was murdering teams by himself until terry and barea hit those 3s over lebron :x

 

[knightlovesqueen]

you mad you can't back up anything you type?
@ this dude posting Lebron's game 6 as if it is the greatest game anyone has played in playoff history

I just recognized your ur SN from yuku.

The ultimate Laker Stan.

What do you want me to back up pleighboi?

Lebron is the champ. nothing more nothing less:

 

[darthska]

Ok, Dirk won by himself... but he gets a *

If the Heat had prime-Tbug, Wade, Lebron, Bosh, & prime-Zo, no way Dirk is a champion.

 

[xtapolapacetl]

wasn't mo williams a substitute since chris bosh was injured that all star game?

No. He was a substitute because Chris Bosh AND Jameer Nelson were injured that all-star game. Really impressive.

 

[flyerthandelta]

How does Dirk get a * tho...He killed the Heat in 5gms and Bosh looked like he was in Lazerus

 

[onetrust]

That 07-10 Cavs supporting cast was A LOT better than the pathetic supporting cast that Kobe got from 04-07
Lebron was lucky he played on the weak Eastern Conference. If Lebron was playing on the Western Conference he wouldn't even past second round. Phoenix, Spurs, Mavs etc was 50+ wins teams
Outside of Odom(He sucked btw). Let's have a look at Kobe supporting cast.
:x
Smushcalade Parker
Chucky Atkin
Chris Mihm
Kwame Brown
Brian Cook
Laron Profit
Tierre Brown
Ronny Turiaf
Sasha Vujacic
Luke Walton
Aaron Mckie
Maurice Evans
Radmanovic
:x

And you forgot bum *** Adam Morrison

I LOVE how these two Kobe fans CONVENIENTLY leave out CARON BUTLER but definitely remembered to bring up all the less talented people Kobe has played with. Let me guess, Caron was wack anyway right? But that boy Larry Hughes was hall of fame talent!

 

[quik1987]

Bosh IS NOT known as a 3 point specialist and much less as a defensive specialist
***** with "what he is supposed to" do

What? Big reason why they made it to the finals the year before was Bosh's post denfense against Boston and Chicago.

He also been had mid to long distance 2s and hit game winner 3s in Toronto.

 

[T0INE]

Rick Barry had no help. He would be the GOAT if he didn't create Jon Barry.

Thanks for this.

Sifting through this cesspool of nonsense was making my head hurt.

 

[ohmygosher]

So we gonna compare Tyson chandler and Jason terry to Dwayne freaking wade now?

Nobody does it alone. But dirk did it with no true secondary star IMO.

This.

Dirk did it with a team that was built the same way Lebrons Cavs were.

One star, surrounded by roles players. 

thats not possible

Jason Terry

Tyson Chandler

Peja Stojackovic

Shawn Marion

Jason Kidd

DeShawn Stevenson

Caron Butler

can NOT be compared to that abysmal cast LeBron had.

And Bron had:

Daniel Gibson

JJ Hickson

Zydrunas Ilgauskas

Antawn Jamison

Jamario Moon

Shaq

Anthony Parker

Leon Powe

Varejao

D West

Mo Williams

Those Cavs teams had more talent than that Dallas team.

 

[fudgemoney24]

Warned.

 

[flyerthandelta]

@OneTrust Larry Hughes was HOF talent.... leave the rocks alone homie

 

[solarius49]

larry "legend" bird is the 2nd greatest player of all time.


Dead serious.


I'm not white.

Bird isn't even the 2nd best at his damn position  . Ya'll kill me but whatever.

Jordan leaves his team, they have 50 wins and make the playoffs. LeBron leaves his team and all them ****** collapse. Who REALLY needed help?

List all the other players the Cavs lost too, dont worry, I'll wait.

 

[ag 47]

So we gonna compare Tyson chandler and Jason terry to Dwayne freaking wade now?
Nobody does it alone. But dirk did it with no true secondary star IMO.

But he had a solid supporting cast. How ya'll gone ignore that and attempt to make Dirk the sole NBA star in history to win a title by himself?

Barea killed the Lakers. The Jet had his clutch moments against the Heat. Chandler was solid the entire playoffs. Deshawn's defense.

Obviously it started with the defense's inability to stop Dirk, but that Dallas team was lights out from the perimeter.

 

[Bert.]

some of you Kobe haters are so annoying. wow

 

[knightngale]

I just recognized your ur SN from yuku.
The ultimate Laker Stan.
What do you want me to back up pleighboi?
Lebron is the champ. nothing more nothing less:

who the hell is saying Lebron is not the champ?

you brought kobe into the convo as if dude had never done a 45+ 10+ rebound game in his life in a playoff game
I assume you did not know and that is why you brought it up...either way it is pure ignorance

Kobe has had big playoff games before and NO, Laker/Kobe fans are not going to get their knee pads ready over a 40 point game. That's what Lebron fans do.
Even MJ stans are not as obnoxious with his 63 point game. No one gives a damn about 40 point games unless you are already got those kneepads on.

 

[ag 47]

I LOVE how these two Kobe fans CONVENIENTLY leave out CARON BUTLER but definitely remembered to bring up all the less talented people Kobe has played with. Let me guess, Caron was wack anyway right? But that boy Larry Hughes was hall of fame talent!

So Kobe, Caron, and Lamar Odom was supposed to win a title together? Those 05-07 Laker teams were absolutely terrible. Arguably the worse supporting cast a "superstar" player has ever had. All you have to do is ask yourself how many of those people from those rosters are still in the NBA.

Oh.

You are pathetic. Caron Butler did not even play in 2011 playoffs. The other dudes were washed up. Peja could barely walk. Dude had less mobility than this year's Mike Miller.

What makes it worse is that those washed up player drilled a couple treys on Lebron, the best defender humanity will ever produce.

@OneTrust Larry Hughes was HOF talent.... leave the rocks alone homie

at YOU TOTALLY missing the joke. I'm saying kobe fans such as yourself think Larrry Hughes, Big Z and Mo Williams are "hall of fame/superstar" talent.

So Kobe, Caron, and Lamar Odom was supposed to win a title together? Those 05-07 Laker teams were absolutely terrible. Arguably the worse supporting cast a "superstar" player has ever had. All you have to do is ask yourself how many of those people from those rosters are still in the NBA.

Wow, really? Tell me you're not being serious. So Lebron, Tmac, AI, Pierce(until the Big 3) didn't have it worse? Y'all talking as if Kobe has been playing with less talent his whole career. Oooh I'm soooo sorry Kobe had to play with lesser talent for two out of his 15 year career.

 

[Pathos]

larry "legend" bird is the 2nd greatest player of all time.


Dead serious.


I'm not white.

Bird isn't even the 2nd best at his damn position  . Ya'll kill me but whatever.

Jordan leaves his team, they have 50 wins and make the playoffs. LeBron leaves his team and all them ****** collapse. Who REALLY needed help?

List all the other players the Cavs lost too, dont worry, I'll wait.

?

I don't understand the question srs

You're saying they collapsed after they lost Lebron, but they also lost SEVERAL other contributors that led to that terrible record. Oh yeah, the Heat are 1-5 in games without Lebron, how terrible is their supporting cast?
