Force

The red rocket...always liked him as a player. Will never forget when he stood up to KG lol. Happy he got resigned.

El Mago...what was the name Chuck used to call him? I miss his commentary lol. Bargnani is too smooth

Davis, Foye, Thornton, Blake, Kaman..pretty nice starting five, though I'm guessing that's not it lol. Clippers already had a good core of young shining players and these two players add on to the list.

Well yeah..we're the defending champs. Miami has a bigger target on their back right now though...I think every team in the NBA wants to take them down first.

Nothing to really refute here lol. Still, if he woulda gone the other route, and did what you said..the story will woulda concluded the same. Cavs fans would still hate him, and be burning his jersey. In the end, he got the attention he wanted, and is getting a hell load of hate right now because people are scared of how good Miami can be. He wants to win..period. Miami was the best scenario to fulfill that desire...even if it means not being the man.

Throwing your team under the bus is what Bosh is doing...Lebron hasn't said one negative thing about Cleveland. Yeah, he went over the top having a one hour special and everything, but the guy loves attention, and he def. got it. Just check the activity OTR got today, and how people are reacting. idk...I'm the opposite from people. Most people hate him more now, but I actually like him lol. Obviously I wouldnt be saying this if I was a Cleveland, New York...etc fan, and I feel for them, but whatever. The NBA is a business, and they gotta understand that.

I actually like the Heat with all this hate filling up. It's funny how people are going ape-[expletive] because of Lebron's signing. Not Lebron's fault he'd rather player with some of his best friends and win rings, instead of staying in Cleveland, and busting his [expletive] to come close to one.

lol thats my new avatar.

LOL at Gilbert if thats actually him.

lol Stephen A Smith is a homo..he tried to cover up his prediction after he heard all the rumors of Lebron to the Bulls/Knicks then referred back to his original thought at the last second.

? 1 person is considered Laker fans? It's funny cuz if it was anybody else you wouldnt have said nuttn Can't wait to watch the trio play..as much as its gunna suck for the rest of the league.

and I'm gunna state the what is seems like obvious, and say he's going to Miami. Calling it now.

2-0 Spain victory. I want Sunday to arrive after Lebron's special lol.

Real good to hear this though.

lol, obv. he cares which is more of a team sport since thats what both of you...at least, he's arguing. He's not saying that baseball is not a team sport..he's just saying that basketball is more of a team game than it..which I agree with.

[expletive] the Heat, but I cant wait to watch them play if this happens lol.

I'll switch up the topic title and make this the official 3rd place game thread.

Vamos Españaaa Matt, who you rooting for?

x2 If they call that..they shoulda called the penalty when Ramos was taken down by Schweinsteiger. <3 Puyol..what hangtime and definition. Xabi Alonso, and Pedro both played reaaal well today...sucks Pedro [expletive]ed it up with that stupid decision he made on that breakaway.

Gunna have to agree. In soccer, one player doesn't impact the game as much as it does in basketball. Even if Suarez was playing, Holand woulda still won and displayed they were by far the better team.

Uruguay got me hopes up after that goal..damn. Real happy for Uruguay for getting this far. Holand was easily the better team, but their heart, will, and force almost got them the tie, and got them this far.

I guess...but did you see the curve on the shot? It was crazy, and the reason he didnt save it.

Van Brounkhorst or w.e his name is..his goal was [expletive]ing amazing. After their goal, Holand played to passively though, setting up that sexy shot by Forlan. Really hoping Uruguay can win this one.

That span of 2 mins where all those penaltys happened was crazy. Questionable for both sides, offsides on Uruguay, penalty on Fabregas after Xabi missed but I think the ref did a good job overall. What a play by Iniesta to create that chance for Pedro, where I almost had a heart attack when it hit the post..but then Villa happened lol. Props to Casillas, really showed why he's a world class goalkeeper.

20 more minutes.
