of course he did, lebron makes the players spread the floor so he can have drive and pitch lane. bosh offensive rebounds are double of what they was last year. this is actually a terrible arguement if u look at the stats barely in the season and its from 1.2 to 2.4
Your End of the Season Reference ISN'T Applicable Since we're Discussing a Situation BARELY 5 Fucking Games In, Homey.... Gregg Popovich has Cultivated a "Magical, Mystical POP" Image for Himself, to the Point NOBODY Questions What he Does Anymore...It's Soooo Bad, he Goes OUT of his Way to Be a DICK to Interviewers, & They Almost Feel PRIVILEDGED to Have Been Belittled by Him, Afterwards... DNP'ing your Stars for an EARLY Season T.V. Game, Against an Undefeated Foe, is just Another Example of Pop Perpetuating & Buying Into his OWN Brand of Bullshit...He's Living Vicariously Through HIMSELF...He's Become the ART Imitating the Life of Gregg Popovich, Throwing Out these Instances of Surliness & Defiance, as Media Sorts Convince THEMSELVES it's all Part of Some Grand Overall Scheme... Granted, Dude Can Coach his Ass Off, but All this Exterior Bullshit is Merely SCHTICK.... REED:shit #2:
If ANY Argument is "Terrible", it's CLEARLY Yours, Mass.... You REALLY Think LeBron James Made Chris Bosh a WORSE Player???...The Cavs DIDN'T Come within Smelling Distance of the Playoffs when Bron Left Them...Miami HADN'T Been a Championship Contender for Several Years PRIOR to Bron Joining Them...How Many Times had Bosh Made the Playoffs w/Toronto???... To Suggest LeBron James NEGATIVELY Impacts Players/Teams is Ridiculous...If that Team has Another Small Forward, Sure, but Otherwise, it's Bullshit... w/Miami, Bron Spent MORE Time in the Paint than Bosh Did, on BOTH Ends of the Floor...Why, Because Bosh is a FINESSE Post Player Who'd Rather Shoot Ill Advised 3's than BANG Down Low...Hell, just Last Year, Bron had to Guard David West in the Heat-Pacer Series, Because Bosh Didn't Have the STOMACH for the Fight... Bosh (& Mario Chalmers Sorry Ass) Used Bron as a Convenient EXCUSE for Underperforming, & Quite Naturally, he's MOTIVATED to Hit the Boards Harder, Since he Put that Statement Out There...But Don't Worry, he'll Revert to Form in Due Time...& Again, it's NOT Like Bron has Negatively Impacted Kevin Love's Game... If You Actually WATCH the Games, Bosh Ain't Doing Anything Different, Other than Showing More EFFORT on the Boards...But Bosh's Effort has NATHAN to Do w/LeBron James... REED:nono:
I don't think anybody is claiming that Lebron makes "Teams" worse. Just that he can impact the statistics of various players around him in a negative way. Other players take a back seat to Lebron, because he is better then them. They accept it while he's there, because they are team players. Bosh got his rings with Lebron, but is probably somewhat excited that he will get to do some of the things he was able to do, before he started playing with Lebron, once again. Statisically good for Bosh, probably not so much for the Miami Heat as a whole.

popovich played all his guys in golden state tonight, on a back to back road game that was televised. happy now? meanwhile bryant now has the distinction of having laid the most bricks in NBA history.
That display tonight was Turrible. He had such a bad game. Still, it made me happy. Im sure if they get another 4 days off they might win another game. How long before scott is fired?
i didnt watch the game. once randle got hurt there really is no reason to watch that lottery team. scott will get shitcanned after the end of next season when bryant walks
BTW here you guys can watch the games with minimal advertisement and decent quality. http://www.hot.ee/strompl/?channel=strompl5
If bryant stays healthe the rest of his contract his brick laying record may become the most unbreakable in sports
Even Though Bron's in Cleveland Now, Undoubtedly it's HIS Fault Chris Bosh was 3-11 for 9pts, 2boards, in Miami's Home LOSS to Indy (Sans Paul George, George Hill & Lance Stephenson), Last Night.. Whenever You SUCK, Blame it on Bron!!!... REED:mut:
Nice game by Bron tonight. Rondo with 16 assists. He's so fucking good. I'd hate to see him waste his healthy years in Boston.
I don't know if you've got a personal thing against LBJ or not, but what obviously hurt Bosh's game was the fact he was the third banana. In actuality LBJ and Wade were the main focus of the offense and Bosh was used more in a way to open up their games rather than expanding his own. His skills were minimized and he was being underutilized. If anything they probably should have traded him long ago and found a cheaper stretch four that would have allowed them to have a much stronger bench. He was never the player they thought they were getting or even the one they were paying for (at that price) but that wasn't his fault. There wasn't enough room for him to be Bosh in that offense since it was so iso heavy and none of those guys was willing to take the ego punch of coming off the bench, which would have been really effective IMO.
Well I've been catching nearly every Thunder game and I find all the injuries a blessing in disguise. I think in the long run this could lead to a championship. It gets those other guys a chance to learn how to play together instead of being Durant and Westbrook's ball boys all the time. It also gives Brooks a chance to really do some coaching. These guys are developing more confidence and more trust and Reggie Jackson is balling like he always has. Once the team is whole again I think the starters should be Westbrook, Lamb, Durant, Ibaka, and Stevenson; with a bench mob of Telfair, Jackson, Perry Jones, Collison, and Perkins we should be able to handle any team in the league. Especially with how good Jackson is and if Jones' little 2 or 3 game scoring output he showed before he got hurt is an indication of what he can do. We also have Robberson and shooting specialist Morrow in the wings. The main thing is that when Durant and Westbrook come back, Brooks can't let those 2 dominate the offense so much anymore. Even with a gutted team these guys aren't getting blown out and are even getting the occasional win. They deserve a chance to play and contribute.
This: is why I think this: will never happen. Presti has been too tolerant with Brooks. He should've been fired already and replaced with someone who could make the Durant/Westbrook duo work while involving and developing their young players.
For those Paying Attention, Cleveland (5-3) has VERY QUIETLY Pieced Together a 4-Game Winning Streak...Simultaneously, Miami (5-5) has LOST 3 Straight... Both Play Tonight... REEDance1:
Forgot to Mention, Chris Bosh has FAILED to Get 10 Rebounds in 3 Straight Games, 4 of his Last 5 and 5 of his Last 7... He Followed Up his Stellar 3-13 Shooting, in a Loss to Indy, w/a 7-19 Performance in a Loss vs. Atlanta...0-3 from 3, by the Way...Last Night, he 2-17 (1-6 from 3), in a Losing Effort vs. Milwaukee... But Yeah, it's Bron's Fault... REED:mut:
Now that the Grizzlies put the Rockets record in perspective with a dominating win, all is back to normal and the hype is gone. Simply put, the Rockets can't adapt or adjust. They can grind it out but there's no plan B in their offensive scheme. That being said, Vince Carter has been huge for the Grizzlies. Maybe won't reflect on the stat sheet but his veteran presence and leadership was needed.
And Durant was in Street Clothes, No Less...At SOME Point, Howard's Gonna Have to Stand Up for Himself or EVERYBODY Will Test Him... Even Blake Griffin Finally Got Fed the Fuck Up and Started Standing Up for Himself....If Anybody, Nevermind 2 PERIMETER Players, Got in Shaq's Face like that, he'd Bitchslap Them and GLADLY Take the Suspension/Fine...
