4/21 News: Rose misses practice/Lebron loves Chicago
[From the FanShots. Heck, why not dream when it comes to LeBron, batty Sam Smith is. -ed.]
Rose has a family emergency, will play tomorrow night.
Lebron says its not in response to Noah...yeah right; he just randomly professes his love for Chicago just days after Noah says Cleveland sucks!

Thank you sir, this has been corrected.
Thomas, Miller, Salmons, James, Pargo, Gray, MLE, and (there is no LLE thanks to the Pargo signing) will not be here with a Max Free Agent...don't get too attached.
notice he says
chicago. then cleveland
then akron
akron is clearly pointed out here as different from cleveland!
he doesnt see himself from cleveland!
no hometown advantage!!
awesome.

And this guy right here understands and knows what leadership is all about: The coach, the hall of famer......... Dick Butka! George Ryan
The Bulls shrink like a dick in cold water.
Those guys are so dumb
they really thought he was making a joke. Don’t they know he’s a robot that doesn’t joke in interviews?
Joakim on whether he ever tried tennis: "I played a little bit. If anybody on the Bulls wanted to play me, I would kick their ass."
Part of me thinks
That he’s just saying that because Noah says he hates Cleveland. Another part of me thinks that he means it. so its 60%-40% for me
jesus, the fuck?
i mean, i know you laugh more when surrouned by other people laughing, but that ain’t even a bit funny. no wonder lebron has an inflated sense of himself.
Sam Smith is batty.
for real. Will all the LeBron fawning stop after he pens his contract? or does he sign another 3yr just to keep the fawning going and to keep all teams weak while clearing cap space for the magical summer of 2013.
Bosh or Bust
batty as he may be
lebron + rose + noah + deng would be nearly unbeatable, and for quite some time.
lebron + wade + beasley + ?
or…. lebron + griffin + kaman + davis + ?
maybe i overrate the bulls guys, but this looks like the best short term and long term sign on.
"Let's do some living... after we die"
I'd say
Lebron plus Wade and fillers trump everything else….just because Wade too is that good….
But I don’t see Lebron going to Miami to make less money than Wade, and i don’t think the Heat have anything that would entice Cavs as in the at least get something back sign and trade compensation.
But I do think the youth, with the city and everything else in Chicago, we could be the most viable option and best option for LBJ if he were to leave (since I don’t see him playing second fiddle).

You can't bank on getting a HUGE contract
after the new CBA comes into effect after next year’s likely lockout. I think all these FA’s are going to sign max-$ & max-year deals this summer, with their current teams, or otherwise.
I hope he keeps signing one-year deals
just so the Knicks have to keep their cap space open

And I know everyone in Chicago would feel James looks good dancing in a Bulls uniform.
Sam is a battyman for that comment. I dont like dancing Bulls unless its Benny
Yeah right?
He’s nuts if he thinks Chicago will put up with dancing athletes, unless its called the world championship shuffle or something.

I would..
He can do whatever the hell he wants.. Dennis Rodman wore a dress. As long as they win championships, which we would with LeBron James he can do whatever he wants.

Sam isn't crazy
The only thing crazy is the idea of LeBron leaving Cleveland.
He makes solid points that everyone has echoed throughout this year.
It’s a fact that if you took James off the Cavs, our talent outweighs theirs and is much younger with room to grow.
But there are other factors that come into play obviously. Does he wanna be the biggest thing to ever happen to NY? Does he like the idea of joining Wade and having arguably the best 1-2 combo in sports history? Does he like the idea of being the savior of a team like the Clippers? And does he want to play in the shadow of MJ?
If it’s all about winning for him, which he claims … Chicago brings you the best hope for rings for many years to come … and in a huge market. But who believes LeBron anymore? He’s a pathelogical liar that loves the attention, which is what made his Noah quote so freakin’ funny
If the Bulls don’t make the playoffs I won’t need to watch basketball, its on to basketball.

pathological? that seems a bit harsh.
there is something awesome about Pargo, though.
Seriously. It’s kind of awe inspiring: he WILL shoot. He has no conscience. No remorse. He will shoot – the situation, the opponent, the country. He could be in zero gravity floating in orbit. The dude would be jacking up shots. And missing.

Is that all you got ?
Reneging or not doing what you say you want to do over a year later is not the same as a lie.
You ought to be able to cite alot of lies if he does it alot.
I'm Polish...what's your excuse?
You know what?
Forget it. This is stupid to even discuss.

Okay, the vacation thing was kinda funny.
In the past 10 years, just four team owners have not paid a luxury tax and are not on pace to pay one this year: Donald Sterling, Jerry Reinsdorf, Chris Cohen (Golden State), Bob Johnson (Charlotte).
Two owners’ teams averaged an operating income of over +$10 million per year while their teams have lost over 60% of their games: Donald Sterling and Jerry Reinsdorf.
It would've been funny if he meant it in the way that they thought he meant it
but I don’t think he meant it to be a Noah thing at all. Maybe my signals are crossed or something, but that just seemed like an accident, judging by how quickly he backtracked and tried to clarify himself.

Yeah, I dunno. I just feel like James knows exactly what he's saying at all times.

Yea, you're probably right, but if it was a jab at Noah, it was pretty weak imo

We talkin' about practice? Practice???
Post-practice entertainment was a low-key shooting session with Jannero Pargo, Hakim Warrick and Rob Kurz. Pargo can still hit 10 3-pointers in a row like it was nothing, but is 0 for 1 in the series, playing just 2 ½ minutes in Game 1.
And in games, Pargo can still miss 10 3-pointers in a row like it was nothing.

My favorite quote from Smithy
Is him pooh-poohing the Cavs front line saying
Shaq was ineffective and you wonder if the one day of rest, which he’ll see more of in subsequent rounds, isn’t enough. There are two day breaks before games 3 and 4 in this series, which should benefit O’Neal.
Suddenly, if Anderson Varejao isn’t having a big game—and he doesn’t score, anyway—the front line looks overmatched.Noah ran them and outworked them badly and Taj Gibson out toughed them with 11 points and seven rebounds.
/head explodes
If we aren't careful, the leanness we now feel will be the starvation of those we serve.

eh..
Taj hasn’t been terrible in the series so far. It’s not completely out of the realm of reality to say that he is playing tough. But the way Sam fawns over him, I can see the frustration…
yeah, considering he turned in some stinkers to end the season
Taj has been pretty good this series.

My problem with Sam is that it almost seems personal
the way he goes after these other teams, he just rips everyone else’s players to death while he pretends that someone like Taj is the next Shaq. It’s almost like he’s on the Bulls payroll… oh, wait a minute

hah
no he just gets on an elliptical and starts panting after about 10 seconds with his mouth hanging open. Funny story..
I was playing ball a couple months ago and ended up rolling my ankle so bad that it caused a hairline fracture (a dude stepped on it as I was landing from a floater and actually tore my big toe nail off in the process — yeah, painful) and as I was hopping on one foot into the locker room I ran right into him and almost knocked him over. the look on his face was what I imagine it would look like if Taj one day just shouted “muthafucka!!!” at him.

i think later tonight we are going to look back and marvel at the symmetry between this
game 3 and last years game 3. — just a feeling.
there is something awesome about Pargo, though.
