Title: Not one, not two, not three... NBA Hoop Threads (sans FroDog natch)
Post by: Internet Apex on July 06, 2012, 10:45:39 PM
Ray Ray aims to make it so that Mike Miller and Shane Battier's flukishness matters not. This motherfucker's gonna get more open than an envelope with money in it.

http://news.bostonherald.com/sports/basketball/celtics/view/20220706allen_spurns_celtics_picks_heat/srvc=home&position=recent

Commence irrational butthurt about a player who already owns a ring taking less money to play with a contending team while his former team (sort of) rebuilds. Three years and all that money for KG is puzzling.

Isn't Ray Allen like 400 years old?

DPD.

Apologies for contributing to an Apex TrollThread that would have been hilarious had it just been his stupid stick-poking topic starter.  Couldn't help myself.  But seriously, wasn't Ray Allen portraying Jesus Shuttleworth in that Spike Lee Joint like in the late 90's?  Is he really that valuable?  Pardon me for inserting ignorance instead of the butthurtedness; inquiring minds that are too lazy or indifferent to find this shit out themselves want to know.

What difference does it make that a guy already has a ring or not? Guys like winning. It's more fun than losing.

Allen can still shoot and he's far more reliable than the perimeter players that the Heat just won a title with. Mike Miller's performance in the Thunder series was a chilling spectacle for opposing coaches bent on double teaming LeBron every time he catches in the post. You leave Ray Allen all alone like that and you're going to pay dearly. It's really unfair. You're correct that he's old but he will be coming off the bench for the Heat and won't have to run off eleventy bajillion screens to get open looks with LeBron and Wade driving and dishing. It gives Miami more scoring options at the end of games too. The Heat doesn't need to sign superstars. They have plenty of those. They need better role players to stave off the opposition that will be gunning for them. This is HUGE in that regard.

Ray was BUTTHURT that Boston tried trading him last year and he hates rondo, because he's an asshole and he's unpredictable. Jason Terry is better than Ray Allen these days, it's a good deal for Boston. Overpaying for a guy who's hurt, old and can't shoot anymore isn't a good idea. On Miami it's a good idea, assuming Lebron and Dwade don't get hurt and he can just shoot open shots.

I don't think it suddenly becomes a bad idea if LeBron or DWade get hurt.

So what's gonna hai with Dwight? If the Lakers give up Bynum for him, I could understand that the Bulls don't have a piece that could match that and I'll go back to diddling my dingle.

So he wouldn't re-sign or pick up his player option at year's end and you clear his money and whatever it took to get him off the books. Then send Bennie The Bull on a recruiting mission to bring in some decent replacements. I don't know what it would take to get him here, what other teams they'd have to involve or whether they'd have to bring in other bad contracts from 2nd, 3rd parties to make it work. I don't know those things because I'm not a fucking mindreader.

But if they did get him and Rose did in fact return for a playoff run, it could be an exciting one. It would make a lot people nervous. Not me. But some people wouldn't like it one bit.

Why not give it a shot? Howard has proven that he's a big 5-year-old and changes his mind every few days. The Bulls could bring him here and let him experience Chicago, play for a great coach, with a great point guard and see if he likes it. Then when the season is over (and he's potentially won a title), they can offer him a bigger contract than anyone else. If he still leaves after that, fine. At least they will have actually tried hard to do something creative and ballsy, rather than limp around like dickless Flanderseses who are afraid of doing anything that even hints at being a little risky.

Worst case, like Apex said, all his money is off the books and they wait around for Kevin Love to force his way out of Minnesota.

All of that. I think we'd all agree that Noah/Deng/Gibson probably aren't sufficient support for Rose to win a chammenship, so if the Magic would take that package, why the hell wouldn't you go for it?

I'm starting to come around on the notion that the Bulls should be scorned by their fans in a way different from every other franchise except maybe the Bears but not really. Even the Bears will be loyal to a head coach with even just a modicum of success. The Bulls are low balling Tom Thibodeau who of all people probably deserves whatever the fuck he wants. I can get over them waffling on Asik because of Taj or Hinrich over Watson, etc. but toying with Thibs is not cool.

It'll make for a fun Western Conference Finals. Mike Brown is still the head coach at the moment so I'm not convinced that all this isn't going to be a huge clusterfuckup disappointment until I see it in action. Nash and Kobe are getting up there and Howard has a balky back and a short-term contract. Pau is a total pussy. So while this has the potential to be a superteam and a contender, it also has the potential to be a whiny, bickery, broke-down incompatible jerkoff of a second-round loser.

But I can't wait until the season starts to see how it all plays out.

I want to make fun of the Lakers for losing one game (LOLZOMG) but that's the kind of basketball retardation that led me to the realm of Heatdongchuggary in the first place. So I'll resist the urge. But it would appear that the Lakers have a lot of work to do before they can be called championship-ready. And they're an older core group than the one Miami put together two years ago. Teams like that need more rest and you've got Kobe already banged up and Dwight coming off of back surgery.

With guys inevitably due for long layoffs and scheduled rest I think it may take them longer to mesh than a lot of prognosticators realized. If Mike Brown knows what he's doing - and I'm not at all convinced he does - he'll take these health concerns into account as Popovich does, and slowly tune this team up in preparation for a playoff run. Let OKC get the top seed, let the recharged Clippers surge to the division lead. Don't pay one single second of attention to the massive, unrelenting, soul-destroying death machine down in South Beach.  Just get ready for April and tune everything else out.

Can they do that? In L.A.? With Dwight Fucking Howard around?

I... don't think so.

Is this the thread where we get to overreact to one game and talk about JAMES HARDEN MVP OMG SO STUPID PRESTI WTF?!?!

At the very least, we could have JD make a comeback and tell us again why he doesn't like Harden because of how slow he plays.

Well the Lakers lost all eight preseason games and their first two regular season games making them a perfect OMGZ-for-10. And Steve Nash banged up his knee last night trying to be good at defense. So there's that.

My good friend KELLY DWYER Tweeted that the Lakers need a lot of time and great coaching, "deduce what you will from that."

It's possible Mike Brown gets fired midstream. If so, I'd like to see him get a TV gig. Because I think he's a really interesting person who is in way over his head now.

That was Twitter last night. He tore up the Pistons so naturally the Rockets won the trade. *smashes desk with gavel*

Twitter truly vacillates every nanosecond between the greatest and worst thing on the Internet.

Exactly why I love it.
