stogiey2k2 Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 I'm very happy about this trade for starters getting rid of Eddie Jones $14.5 Million Dollar Salary is Fantastic (eddie Jones = BUMB)Now I heard them say on ESPN they want Walker to start at Small Forward and Udanis to remain at Power Forward that would be an amazingly great front court. The addition of Jason Williams to the team is definitely a plus he's a great passer and I like his style of play and along side Wade should be fun to watch. If they do sign Damon Jones back then the bench will have depth which we lack. Now they only problem I see here with Walker who's had issues in the past is this can be either great for our team and = FINALS or RING for sure or he can cause problems to the team, because Walker has to accept his role as not being the #1 or #2 guys and score an avg. 15-16 points per game if he wants to be ball hog and shoot 20 three pointers per game it will kill us. I think though he's going to smarten up and accept the fact if he settles down and plays his role he can easily help the team obtain that RING (In other news) what a freakin Dumbass Labron James is I dislike him now big time, the focker went to some theme park with a bunch of buddies and refused to pay admission and wanted to get in the park with all his posse for free people like this make me sick! you got millions and yet you don't want to throw a dime cuz you think you deserve everything...

erickamikaze Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 (In other news) what a freakin Dumbass Labron James is I dislike him now big time, the focker went to some theme park with a bunch of buddies and refused to pay admission and wanted to get in the park with all his posse for free people like this make me sick! you got millions and yet you don't want to throw a dime cuz you think you deserve everything... Cavs superstar LeBron Jamesdrew some murmurs during a recent visit to Cedar Point: Accompanied by several others, James reportedly turned down the park's offer to buy a "VIP Package" - which start at $1,500 - that would have provided all his admission tickets, a security detail, priority access to rides and attractions and other first-class perks. Instead, James reportedly requested that he and his entire party simply be admitted free of charge. A Cedar Point spokesperson confirms James recently visited the park, but would only say that "other arrangements were made" for the All-Star and his group.

lolahotass Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 I saw Jason Williams play (Memphis-Suns play-off) when I was on vacation in Memphis in May. Guy has sick skills... he's definately a great addition to the team.. it will be interesting to see how Stan can get all these highs scoring ball-hungry guys to play as a team though.. Heat are the team to beat this year IMO. I think they made their roster a helluva lot stronger. Memphis didn't have a chance last year in the west, and it looks like they don't have much of a chance this year either. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meng Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 I think this is BRILLIANT! The only thing is that all these new guys love to hog the ball but that's no big deal. They're badasses. They can sort out ball distribution at practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b-side Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 Sounds like a winning team to me....I just hope the gel quick enough to be a TEAM...What did they do with Zo? is he still on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerclaw Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 Also, Lets not forget Shaq, I believe he signed a 5 year contract for 100 million, They were going to give him 125m, But he desided he wanted the 100m instead, Which is great cause they can be able to sign some good free agents.

b-side Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 LOL! another 25 MIL is like loose change to him! but he's a smart man... he knows if they win it all he'll get way more than 25 mil each year they win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renzo2 Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 Yeah, the Heat definitely came out winning.They got a good forward in Antoine Walker and they got the flashiest whiteboy in the league in Jason Williams. This season should be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
