And now Miami have a quality 6th man

[Whoah10115]

I want Lebron to win so I obviously want his team to win. Doesn't make me a real Heat fan. I'm not even American and have no natural connections to any teams.

I think what he's trying to ask is, why isn't your name Lebron?

[longtime lurker]

He loves Nash so much he would rather make threats about Heat/Bron then to post on a Nash related threat! Priceless

Lol exactly.

[Nash]

U love Nash so much ur rooting 4 him to lose against Lebron

Nash was the first player I started to support, Lebron is the player I'm currently more invested in.

I have no idea why this discussions is interesting though because its not like I'm acting as if I'm not a Lebron fan, I'm saying it all the time.

[HiphopRelated]

Play the 6th man role for tactical reasons, behind someone who will never be ahead of him at the end of the game vs backing up a future 1st ballot HOFer who he will never get in ahead of when it counts.


Yes, decisions decisions.

he'll be on the floor at the end of games, Miami has closed games out without a pg many times

Wade/Bron handle down the stretch

and where was the bold promised?

At the end of the day, what is Ray Allen going to be for the Heat at this point in his career? A potentially more consistent Mike Miller? If you think he's going to come off the bench and NOT have a career low scoring wise, then you need to go back and watch last season. He's not getting younger and, until he shows otherwise, I'm going to continue to believe most nights his feet/ankles/heels, or whatever it was that was bothering him last year will slow him down another step or two.

Sure, occasionally he'll have a "Ray Allen" type night where he drops 18+ and makes several threes, and that'll cause the Heat fans to flood the board and go on-and-on about how unstoppable they are, but they need to reserve themselves to wait and see how he's playing in March and April leading into the playofs

The best clutch shooter on that team is going to be on the bench at the end of the game?


An yes, Avery Bradley was going to on the floor ahead of Ray at the end of the games The point of what Rivers was trying to do was, instead of coming up with good offense, he told Rondo to get as many assists as possible and for Ray to come in with the 2nd unit. At the end of games, Bradley was not going to be on the floor ahead of Allen, unless Allen was just too ass.


Wade is still elite. Even if his minutes are limited, he'll still be playing over 30MPG and be on the floor in the most important stretches.

I want Lebron to win so I obviously want his team to win. This makes me a standard heat fan on ISH. Also im Pauk, LeBrons #1 stan

Well said Pauk

[Nash]

How about we ask the mods to compare my IP to Pauk's and if we're from the same place I'll leave this place forever and if not you leave? Wanna make that bet?

[RaininTwos]

Ok, I'm have ask the reasonable members of ISH to stop underrating Ray Allen and overrating Battier/Miller/etc...those guys are not and I don't remember a time where they have ever been near Ray Allen's level of shooting....ever.

I honestly think dude will average over 11 ppg with ease. He's going to get the most space he's ever had and it will be up to him, the greatest three point shooter of all time, to hit relatively easy shots. Now I am not saying that he's going to be wide open in the corner camping, but I don't how defenses are going to keep a man on him while keeping Bosh/Bron and Wade in check. That's just too much in my opinion. You have to give up something and Ray shooting with late contests will be a regular thing.

Realistically, he will have slumps, but what's yin without the yang? Dude will also have moments, not just singular games mind you, where he will be unstoppable. A couple of 20+,25+ nights where he will remind of his past days and how great of a shooter he is and was.

Great pickup and if I was Spo, I'm definitely playing lineups with Bosh at center and Bron at PF in the 4th quarter.

I cannot wait to see a lineup like this:

Wade
Allen
Battier
Bron
Bosh

down the stretch. That would be SICK.

I'm Pauk. I might as well be since you think anyone who likes LeBron is Pauk. Anyways, the guy already said he started off liking Nash when he started watching basketball. What's the problem with him liking LeBron too? It's not like he's denying it.

Who just "likes" players anyway? This is a team sport.
Welcome to ISH, dedicated Miami LeBrons supporters

If anything, Nash should take it as an insult that he comes across as similar to Pauk

So you're saying if I like Kobe, I have to be a Lakers fan?

[PJR]

Ray Allen is going to do what Mike Miller did in game 5 of last years Finals, about 20 times next year. Despite his advanced age and ankle issue, he's still more dependable health wise.


James, Wade, Bosh + the greatest floor spacer of all time in Ray as part of a crunch time lineup? Feelsgoodman.

How can you not like Godbe?

Theres a difference between liking a player and enjoying watching them play, and being a blind stan that makes tons of threads about shit...
