sorry, i'm just sick of all these fans saying the clippers don't deserve Griffin, and that he should get out of there. I mean the clippers have a rough history, and trust me, I know it better than a lot of people. I'm not sure they've ever had the kind of championship quality superstar to really build around in the Sterling era (ron harper? danny manning? loy vaught? miles? odom?). They've had some talented guys but Griffin is already looking like a once in a generation type talent they've never seen. The clips have also been actually resigning people, and handing out some decent contracts in recent years. I'll admit i'm still not convinced DTS will open up his wallet and operate over the cap (I've already resigned that he'll never be over the tax), so it'll be very interesting to see what they do in the next few years.

Trust me, I am scared that their history will effect their ability to resign their stars, but I just find it extremely disrespectful to be talking about how to strip the Clippers of all their talent just because they have a bad history. At least give him a few years to try and change the culture, see how their record is, see what the front office does to build around him, and if Blake and EJ still are convinced that the front office won't make the moves to be a contender, then maybe I can't blame them to keep their options open. No one is talking about when john wall's contract is up or tyreke evans, cousins, etc. I guess i've heard similar talk in regards to Kevin Love, and I find that disrespectful to wolves fans too.

Oh snap...page 26?



Sorry. Gotta remind a few people: @ LeHeat...

dude, seriously Chicago has no sportmanlike fans, i hope derrick rose's gets a cheer when he gets knocked down in pain. It just makes it more better that wade made a better choice. and i see how your team operates by when in doubt injure the other team's star players. Other than that it was a good game.

Yumcha

What are you talking about...? The crowd booed Wade which IMO was deserved...but, otherwise, they are standard fans.

no, im talking about when he went knee-to knee with somebody and they cheered that he was hurt. im like really. it shows that those people have no class at all. btw, he didn't do a lebron, imo that was a slap to his face to the fans that he grew up with. Its ok for the booing, but really. don't worry you guys only have only played with 1 1/2 of the big 3 on the floor. our bench stepped up, but at the end couldn't pull it off.

Yumcha

Um, dude...they were cheering because it was still Bulls possession after the scramble.

Yumcha

It was not really noticed that MiniMe was down until the replay...

asianspec

iTrader: (1)

not from what i was seeing, they also cheered when bosh went down also. Even the Heat annoucers for were like wtf really?

asianspec

iTrader: (1)

either way a loss is a loss, i would take a loss than lose both D-wade and bosh in the same game.

Yumcha

Totally disagree...I didn't even notice Bosh was in pain until afterwards. There was a mad scrum with Asik, Bosh, and a couple of others...when the ball went out of bounds.


The cheering was because it was for the hustle and effort for the ball, dude.

a difference in opinion man. You guys with feel us at full strength when they come to Miami.

CarbonGray Earl

All I said was that I wanna see 3 young talents play together. Scoring leader, rookie sensation, and an up and coming PG... awesome, right?

Never said or implied anything bad about the clips....an org that I personally have family and friends working for.

Yumcha

And I expect the Bulls to lose by 700 points...


...and if your Heat lose again? Hooooo boy.

asianspec

iTrader: (1)

if we lose again. i lose faith. lol

Osamu

yea, sorry i just had to rant, cause I read a lot of blogs/sites, and it's just wearing on me. Sorry, it wasn't really directed at anyone here, but just all the stupid comments I see on a lot of other sites.

I've probably said the same thing about Griffin on OKC though, haha. I remember that draft lottery, and when OKC ended up in the top 3, I almost assumed OKC would somehow end up with the top pick since Griffin was such a hometown hero. Not to infer that the lottery is rigged, but it would've been such a storybook moment. Right now, I don't think the clips would trade Griffin for anyone though, not LBJ, not Rose, maybe not even KD.

That image says it all: The hustle that is Rose. Who ended up stealing that ball...from who? MiniMe.

lol look what i found.

CarbonGray Earl

no worries, all in good fun.

If the clips keep him, all the better for us Angelenos....IMO, the Clips are more exciting at this point.

wow... yummy, I understand you are a huge Chicago fan but damn... stop riding on rose's dick for a sec?

btw, bears won! yah! lol.

What can I say? Rose rocks.

Yumcha

I know you Heat fans wished they could've had Rose too. But, oh well. Maybe when he becomes a UFA.

S14 n Tsx

Lol.

if we had the #1 3 years ago then maybe we had him . but some lucky ass team got it before us. But then we would never the LeTrio though.

CarbonGray Earl

Fun watching it get all chippy, lol.

I'm not surprised at all that the Clippers beat the Lakers as I said before the Clippers play very well against the elite teams this season now lets see if they can continue and win against a non elite team Indiana today.

synth19

meh. Are you seriously making these assumptions without actually being there? Of course Heat announcers are going to sound biased. You have to hear some of the things Stacy Kind says during local coverage. Chicago fans are some of the most respectful and hardcore fans in the country, regardless of the sport. If this was in Miami, half the fans probably wouldn't have known who was Bosh. lol

Yumcha

I still believe the fans were just on their feet because of the hustle for the loose ball...and that the Bulls retained possession on that play.

I had no idea MiniMe was actually hurt.

synth19

errrr... Stacy King.....

i was like who? i remember that guy from the bulls days.. but i wasn't making any assumptions. Btw you're probably right about bosh, because half of miami is filled with illegals and probably didn't hear about him until he came.

Speaking of the Bulls, did anyone catch the Bulls-Memphis game earlier? I was starting to get worried in the fourth quarter when Memphis went on a run. But we were able to pull away with a "W".

Yumcha

No...at work today.


But, good to hear they won even without Noah and Boozer. Must've been the Rose Show again.

Yumcha

Yup...it was the Rose Show. He got a triple-double.
