I'd love it to see all the Heat fans jump off the bandwagon. Bosh will then go to Houston and Miami will be left with...Wade.

That's the only bad part :/
We don't want Dino in Houston. I mean he's one of the most interesting players to watch, with his weird facial expressions and unpredictable behavior (randomly shooting 3s even tho he's already missed like 20000281718 in a row) but we wouldn't actually want him on our team.

Also met a few members of this car club there called "Team Turbo". Pretty sure his Helix didn't actually have a turbo, but it was pretty cool; fully decked out in TRD parts (don't think they sell those there)

Edit: and driving through the literally the middle of nowhere, I saw this old Suzuki hatchback 1800 with a top gear sticker on it.

Bosh is a good fit for Houston. He's going to stretch the floor with his ability to hit 3s and create more room for both Dwight, most importantly, and Harden. He's going to upgrade the roster they already have, you guys would have a semi-big 3 like Miami. The money he's going to be making, isn't quite so nice. I think the deal is like 4 years/80+ million?

EDIT: Oh and you will need him much more if HOU doesn't decide to match the offer Dallas gave to Parsons.

Really?? I hate how he never shot a 3 in Toronto yet when he goes to the heat he has this "ability" now... One of the ugliest three point shots in the league in my opinion and it was shot regularly, I get that you have to adapt your game to roles needed but c'mon... I just want Lebron out of florida so that the magic can reign it's supremacy of the sunshine state once again... GO MAGIC!!

Ps.. Loving elfrid Payton's game from what I've seen in summer league... Bad just sad to say I'm talking more about the tenth pick than our fourth.. I wanted EXUM

Ugh, I can't wait until all this is over. I live in Cleveland and don't really care about the NBA (College basketball ftw!), but I can't escape all this LeBron stuff. Getting kinda annoying tbh.

I was there when he rose and left, and when he left, the whole city sorta collapsed.

Atleast he's back home now.. Finally.. Unfortunately it looks like we got stuck with the dinosaur

Yeah Elfrid looks legit. Kid was flirting with triple doubles a few times in summer league. Gordon is a huge project. He has no real position yet (3 vs 4), no jump-shot. I feel he's better suited as a 4 because of his athleticism and poor shooting. He didn't hit a single 3 in SL. I'm glad Bron left Miami. It was getting boring seeing Heat go to the ECF over and over and over. I actually liked seeing him play in Cleveland, it felt right. But yeah, even though there isn't a rivalry between Miami and Orlando, I still want to be the better team in Flawda.

Bosh was a big time low post scorer in TO. But yeah as you said, they needed him to expand his game and add that 3 point shot.

I'm a Cleveland native actually. I came back shortly after The Decision, and while it was a gut punch to the city, Cleveland is notoriously tough. Everyone hated him for being a dick (and doing so on national television in that travesty), but I wouldn't go as far as to say the city collapsed.

If you haven't been back in a while, the city has actually been thriving lately. I work in the heart of downtown and have for around 4 years now. Downtown has been doing great and is in the middle of a massive, impressive revival. I won't lie, LeBron will help to keep that momentum going.

I do find it funny though, that the national media (ESPN in particular) savaged Cleveland fans reaction to LeBron leaving. Even though most of the over top "reactions" were radio personalities pulling stunts (one of most famous jersey burning videos was done by a radio personality from the rock station WMMS).

Now I hear stories about the same stuff going on in Miami, along with defacing of murals, but I don't see ESPN or anyone else going after the Miami fans the way they went after the Cleveland fans.

I like it. Those chrome strips above the fogs should have been LEDs though...

Nahhh, the whole LED strip thing has gone out of hand imo. They're on everything now It was clean when Audi started it, but now it's just dumb and makes the car look cheap. Plus, the Jewel eyes are DRL's as well. Never knew that until I got a MDX loaner and noticed they were on

I agree. Although what's on my mine is people putting on "aftermarket" strips on their cars, and the worst part is, they're not even straight! It's like Christmas lighting... #smh

I am glad that the fog covers aren't chromed out like ours though. It definitely looks a lot better in black plastic.

+1. The LED strip on the Camry especially looks retarded.

What's a normal amount of hairline scratches to have on your paint? If anyone has a CBP can you take a pic of your paint under light? Thanks

iCrap, what are you using to polish? I hit my CBP with some XMT360 with a white LC CCS pad, and it did a great job of taking out scratches and swirls, but left some slight micromarring.
