On a separate note though I don't think I qualify as a basketball fan anymore. I have ZERO recollection of Lebron making it to the NBA Finals against the Spurs. Looks like I took 2007 off when it came to the NBA. Still to have no memory of that is shocking to me. Baseball I can understand but basketball?

well they didn't last very long haha

It gets worse. Now they're throwing a party in Miami with cut away shots of people watching in Cleveland.

Personally I don't hate the Heat for trying to sign all these guys. You know what good for them. One of my best friends is a Heat fan and I've got to be thinking that he has every right to feel good. Pat Riley deserves to be knighted for pulling this off. What I personally hate is everything that happened during this "process." In fact this has confirmed what I learned back in 2008 with the coaching search that when someone invokes the word process multiple times, chances are nothing good is going to come out of it.

The show, the excuses, the collusion, the flat out ass kissing. And all to join a team that's frankly shouldn't even be allowed to exist.




Parity is when you're considered a legend for getting 3 or 4 rings, not 11. When I look at the NBA I see a very top heavy league. Just a personal preference, but it seems with the NBA once you're on the top it seems easy to stay there.

What are you talking about? Who's got 11 rings? Are you talking about Phil Jackson?

I don't know what Phil Jackson getting 11 rings over two decades on multiple teams has to do with parity in the sport today. Not the strongest argument in my opinion

Bill Russell of course. 11 Championships in 13 years.

I hear you but none of those teams put any fear in the Lakers.

If I were a Laker fan, I'd be very scared of OKC next year. Durant's been getting exponentially better each season and nobody can really stop Westbrook at the PG position. They need size, but they traded for the big Kansas dude in the draft. They took the Lake show to 6 last year (almost to a 7th if it weren't for a last second shot) and it was their first time in the playoffs, not to mention being the youngest team in the NBA.
